Begin with a small amount because lavender has a concentrated floral flavor. Grind the buds or blend them with sugar before adding them to cookies, cakes, shortbread, scones, frosting, or other baked goods.

About Lavandula angustifolia
Lavandula angustifolia is widely valued for its naturally fragrant flowers and gentle floral character. It is commonly used in culinary lavender preparations because its flavor is typically softer and less camphoraceous than some ornamental lavender varieties.
