Okay, I don't seem to have the info in the Florilegium and I think I 
might like to try these sometime. So, how do you candy mint leaves? Do 
you parboil them first? Just drop them in the sugar syrup? Or take a 
bunch and keep dipping it into and out of the sugar syrup?

My recently planted mint isn't big enough to harvest yet, but hopefully 
someday...

Oh, then I guess candied grapes are out... :-)
