I would like to preserve the rosella flowers for a friend, like they do commercially for the bottom of your champagne glass. Can anyone help?

Lisa, I've never seen the flowers like this - are they dried out or soft enough to eat when you've finished your champagne?

They're usually preserved in syrup, so they're a bit chewy at the end of the champagne but quite edible.
