Tips
For those who may not have access to lavender or prefer not to use it, there are several ingredient substitutions that can be made. Instead of lavender, you can try using rosemary or mint for a different herbal note. Additionally, if you don't have access to edible gold leaf, you can use edible flowers or a sprinkle of powdered sugar to add a touch of elegance to the dessert. Remember, the key is to experiment and have fun with different ingredients to create a dessert that suits your taste and preferences.
