Lavender Lemon Bark Recipe


There's a candy shop in Boise, ID that my mother in law used to bring me this really scrumptious lavender lemon bark from. I have been wanting to recreate the recipe for years now and I finally did it! Here is my version!

1.5 lbs white chocolate
2-3 tsp. lavender flowers
1 cup roasted almonds
1-2 tsp. lemon extract

Melt the chocolate over a double boiler stirring constantly until melted. Remove from heat and add the remaining ingredients. The lavender and lemon should be added to taste so you will need to test it! ;) Stir well and spread into a foil lined 9x13 pan. Cool and break into pieces. Store it in an airtight tin or ziploc bag in the fridge. Yum!!!!

Marmalade Time!


I am going to be making marmalade with the family this weekend, something I want to start a tradition doing each spring with the kids!

While I was thinking abut it earlier and gathering supplies I decided to search for some herbal marmalade recipes! Here's a few I found that I thought I'd share!

These would make delicious Mothers day (or anytime) gifts!

Lemon Lavender Marmalade

Minted Pineapple Lime Marmalade

Rosemary Orange Marmalade

Ginger Marmalade

Rose Hip Marmalade

Green Tomato Ginger Marmalade


Surely chamomile would make a wonderful marmalade mixed with ginger, lemon or oranges. I can't wait to try each and every one of these!!! :)
