Egg white. Eh. I'll find another way.
Dang, that's a lot of sugar for only 20 violets

Sugar and water version (no egg-white):

Violet flowers, at least 20 in excellent condition with stems still attached, untreated with chemicals
1 1/2 cup water
1 cup granulated sugar
1/4 tsp almond extract or 1 Tsp rosewater (optional)
Caster/fine sugar (to sprinkle)
