I don't think so.  Saffron has a surprisingly strong flavor.  I'll try 
putting some in some honey-glazed beets (instead of anise) and see how 
it works.  If nothing else, I'm sure the taste of the beets would be 
substantially altered, and it would certainly take less saffron to 
change the taste than the color.
