Raspberry Ice Cream

Crystallized edible flowers, such as pansies and rose petals, or small fruits, such as grapes and berries, make lovely garnishes for ice cream. To make enough garnishes for 6 to 8 servings, lightly beat a large egg white and have 1 1/2 cups superfine (caster) sugar on hand. Dip the flowers or fruit in the egg white or brush it on with a small pastry brush. Let the excess run off and generously dust with the sugar. Set on racks to dry for at least 6 hours or up to overnight. Note that these garnishes contain uncooked egg whites.
