Ice Bowls
Here's a way to serve must-be-chilled foods and make your table sparkle: Create ice bowls decorated with edible flowers, herbs, or citrus slices.
You'll need 2 glass or stainless steel bowls; one should fit inside the other with 1/2 inch to 1 inch between them. Scatter some adornments in large bowl.
Place small bowl inside; tape so rims are flush. Pour water between bowls to 1/2 inch from top. Add more adornments; arrange with a skewer.
Freeze overnight. Let stand at room temperature, on a dish towel, until bowls separate easily, 10 to 20 minutes. Remove tape. Lift top bowl; invert bottom bowl to remove ice bowl.
Freeze until needed. If food should stay dry, set a glass bowl within ice bowl.
Place a dish towel underneath to catch drips.

This is a wonderful idea. I've never seen it before. I'm going to try this at my Christmas buffet and make at least one with cranberries. Thanks so much for the inspiration!
