Taste of Love: Edible Poetry
Poetry in many shapes and forms
A unique gift to give to a loved one, 3 in 1:
- a love poem
- a one of a kind, handcrafted edible flower
- a memorable experience
Edible Flowers: The flowers are made out of wafer paper (potato starch, water and oil), with rose water and food colouring. They were available at Koko Monk (Broadway location) throughout the Hot Chocolate Festival, to February 14, 2020.
The visitors could read a verse about love by a Vancouver poet written on an edible flower. Then, use the flower to stir it into a hot chocolate, let its petals melt like their heart, and consume.
