Typically i see them served in syrup and not coated in candy, and somehow they are so much thicker a petal than you imagine. I assume theyre using a specific type of hibiscus and not just the kind everyone grows for yard decor. More of a yucca flower texture honestly.
They may have actual candied ones to i didn’t even bother looking it up yet, of course.
candied hibiscus? like the flower is candied?
Hibiscus flowers are full of vitamin c, and taste like cranberries!
I had no idea. that sounds delicious.
the flower petals are so thin, how thick is the candy coating?
It’s actually made with the calyx rather than the petals, same as with hibiscus tea.

that is fascinating, thank you for sharing it.
I actually grew up with hibiscus around my house my whole childhood but never knew you could eat them.
which is nuts, because I feel like I try to eat everything else in my yard as a kid.
those look pretty good.
Use theme like tea leaves and you get a tasty drink
also logging this in my brain. thanks
