How to make sugared rose petals

They’re the prettiest way to decorate a cake such as on the strawberry and rose Victoria sponge below and are ready in just 4 short steps.

Lightly beat a free-range egg white with a fork until frothy.
Pour a layer of caster sugar on to a plate.
Using a pastry brush, coast each (unsprayed) rose petal with egg white, then put on to the plate and turn to coat all over in sugar.
Dry on a wire rack for about an hour before scattering over your cake.
