Perfect for gifts at a flower-filled wedding! Here are some sweets made with edible flowers that are not only visually stunning but also delicious!＊

While many sweets featuring edible flowers are Western-style and sparkly, FUKU+RE also offers Japanese-style cakes made using tea! This means they make excellent gifts for people of all ages! ♡
