Pansies, borage, calendula, marigolds, nasturtiums, you could sit down to a plate of them and get lots of yummy nutrition. Then there are "non-toxic" flowers. Flowers that won't hurt you if you eat them, but they're not really "food." Not yummy, not nutritious. Then, of course, there's the catagory of "poisonous." Gentle reader, short street cakes uses flowers from the first two catagories to decorate our cakes, and Zinnias fall in the second catagory. Non-toxic, but not-edible. And besides, flowers are better in salads.Jodi Rhoden- Short Street Cakeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08349040398773239343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4071624923567602637.post-6981434934067680072008-02-27T22:40:00.000-05:002008-02-27T22:40:00.000-05:00but why exactly would one not want to eat a zinni...but why exactly would one not want to eat a zinnia? i think that's the burning question all your blog readers want answered.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
