Note from Ricardo

Sweet clover is a wild plant that grows all over Quebec. Its white flowers have a scent similar to vanilla. Sweet clover is available in most gourmet food shops.

A basketweave piping tip is flat, with one plain side and one star side. It is included in the RICARDO pastry bag and 3 large stainless steel tips set. If not available, use a star tip.
