- In an ice mold, lay edible pansies and green buttons (see note). Gently pour water* over the flowers and freeze. Use plastic molds so the ice will be easier to remove.
Notes

- Fill ice trays incrementally to secure flowers and achieve clearer ice.
- Only use edible flowers free from pesticides; avoid if you or guests have allergies, asthma, or hay fever.
