This beautiful peony blossom, Itoh Peony 'Garden Treasure' was presented to us and proudly shared from a fellow gardener. At first glance, this blooming treasure looks silken, but only upon touching the supple petals it is confirmed to be a real life specimen. The large golden yellow double flowers are 6" across with soft red centers. The plant blooms May and June, and the stems are notably strong as the peony stands proudly upright. The pretty little cakes are being served in the tea room today. They feature fresh raspberries, freshly zested lime, and lime curd atop a white frosted white cake. Such a lovely burst of spring color, both in the garden and in the kitchen.
Oh that looks sooooooo good and fits the peony just perfectly. What a beautiful peony and a beautiful cake.
ReplyDeleteThat peony is amazing! It truly looks too perfect to be real! And the cakes … with a combination of the raspberries, lime zest, and lime curd, they look and sound divine!
