I had such a blast bringing a little Springtime magic to New York Living on PIX 11 with my "Brunch in Bloom" theme! We’re talking all things floral — from light and refreshing drinks to vibrant, edible flowers sprinkled throughout. It’s the perfect way to celebrate Spring or Mother's Day, host a bridal shower brunch or even the day after wedding brunch.

On my segment, I shared a few of my newest recipes that bring a touch of floral elegance to your table, including a Raspberry Rose Parfait, Lemon Elderflower Mocktail, Lavender Honey Whipped Ricotta Toast, and Lilac Sugar Buttermilk Scones. If you missed it or want to recreate these dishes at home, don’t worry — I’ve rounded them all up here in one place so you can enjoy a blooming brunch anytime!
