WHY IT WORKS
-
Exceptional Color Retention: The freeze-drying technology locks in the deep, romantic red hue of the rose, ensuring a striking contrast against white frostings or dark chocolates.

Structural Integrity: These petals maintain their natural, three-dimensional curve and delicate texture, providing a realistic look that fresh-cut flowers cannot sustain over long events.
-
Extremely Lightweight: With only 5 grams of product per container, you receive a surprisingly large volume of petals that will not sink into delicate mousses or weighed-down light batters.
-
Shelf-Stable Brilliance: Eliminates the need for last-minute floral deliveries or refrigeration, allowing you to prep your garnishes well in advance of service.
-
100% Natural: A clean-label decorative solution that avoids the synthetic look and taste of plastic or sugar-based floral replicas.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Are these rose petals edible? While these are real, natural roses processed for culinary decoration, they are intended primarily as a garnish. Like most decorative botanicals, they are food-safe but possess a very mild floral taste and a papery texture.
Will the red color bleed into my frosting? Because these are freeze-dried and not dyed, they are much more stable than fresh petals. However, prolonged contact with high-moisture surfaces like whipped cream may eventually cause minor softening.
How many petals are in a 5-gram jar? Because the petals are extremely light, a 5g jar contains a significant amount of product—typically enough to decorate several large cakes or dozens of cocktails.
Do they smell like fresh roses? Yes, they retain a faint, natural rose scent, though it is much more subtle than a fresh-cut flower.
Can I use these in hot tea? Yes, they make a beautiful addition to loose-leaf tea blends or as a garnish on top of hot lattes, where they will slowly rehydrate.
How fast is shipping to Vancouver or Toronto? As a Calgary-based Canadian supplier, we provide fast shipping across Canada, with most major cities receiving their orders within 2–5 business days.
