- Pour the melted chocolate on the parchment paper and evenly spread with a silicone spatula about 10” x 12” rectangle.
- Sprinkle pistachios, apricots, and rose petals on top. Gently press them down with a clean silicone spatula or the back of a spoon. Refrigerate for an hour or freeze for 20 minutes.
- Cut the bark into pieces with a sharp knife or simply break into smaller pieces by hand. Store in an airtight container in a cool dry place.

Notes
- I have used Ghirardelli chocolate chips but you can also use the white chocolate bars. Just remember to chop the chocolate into smaller pieces so it melts easily and evenly
- Depending on the freshness of your ground cardamom powder you may need more or less. If you are using fresh or home ground cardamom, you will only need ½ teaspoon for perfect flavor and aromas. If it's older you may need up to 1 teaspoon.
- You can also melt white chocolate with a double boiler or bowl set over a simmering pot of water. Make sure to keep the water at just a simmer, not a rapid boil. Make sure the bowl of chocolate does not touch the water when it is set in place in the pot. And keep water from splashing into the chocolate. Go slow, stir, and don’t overheat the chocolate.
