Wash the violets and leaves, and let dry.
Separate the egg. Put yolk away for other use. Dip small brush in egg whites and paint petals front and back. Sprinkle sugar on the violets covering them completely.
Put the violets on waxed paper to dry.
You can do the leaves in the same manner.
Use as garnish on ice cream or cakes.
