Edible Headdress

Skill level: Intermediate

Liz Marek teaches how to create an edible headdress that looks just like a traditional Haku Lei from Hawaii.

In this tutorial, you will learn how to create edible tea leaves with a variegated pattern, blackberries (part of Liz's Oregon upbringing) and blackberry leaves, plumeria flowers, and orchids. Then we will weave these elements together in a traditional way that Liz learned while making real Haku Leis in Hawaii.
