Dried lavender flowers are a beautiful and fragrant ingredient that can add a touch of sophistication to any dish. These delicate flowers have a sweet, floral flavour and a calming, soothing aroma that is perfect for adding to baked goods, desserts, and beverages.

Lavender flowers are often used to make tea and have a lovely purple colour that makes for a beautiful and eye-catching drink. They can also be used to add flavour and colour to jams, jellies, and syrups.

In addition to their delicious flavour, lavender flowers have also been used for their potential health benefits. They are a good source of antioxidants and have been used in traditional medicine to promote relaxation and support healthy sleep.

Here's a recipe for a delicious and fragrant dessert using dried lavender:
