Recipe of the Week: Nimbus Treats

by Alison Fahey · August 30, 2012

As every school-age wizard knows, the fact that we fly on broomsticks is probably our worst-kept secret. No Muggle illustration of a witch is complete without a broom and however ludicrous these drawings are (for none of the broomsticks depicted by Muggles could stay up in the air for a moment), they remind us that we were careless for too many centuries to be surprised that broomsticks and magic are inextricably linked in the Muggle mind.” (QTtA 16)

Brooms are very important throughout the entire Harry Potter series, whether it be to determine Harry’s fate as a Seeker or to help Harry complete the first task in the Triwizard Tournament. The broom is an icon within the series. This tasty snack sent in by Gloria is not only a tribute to all the Nimbus broomsticks out there but also healthy!

Madam Rosmerta is happy to add this unique recipe to her growing recipe box. Do you have your own Potter recipe? Perhaps a treat from Weasleys’ Wizard Wheezes Skiving Snackboxes? Or how about one of Mrs. Weasley’s recipes? Be sure to read the guidelines and send in your recipe!
