Full details

The Edible Flower and Leaf Mix is designed for home bakers and professional pastry chefs looking to add a natural, sophisticated aesthetic to their desserts.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these flowers safe to eat?

Yes, this mix consists of culinary-grade edible flowers and leaves safe for consumption.

Do all packs contain the same flowers?

No, while the varieties include violas, pansies, and nasturtium, each pack varies in specific size and appearance.

Can I put these on a cake the day before?

It is recommended to apply them as close to serving as possible to ensure they stay fresh and maintain their crisp, pressed texture.

How do I store the leftovers?

Keep them in the original packaging or an airtight container in a cool, dry, and dark cupboard.

Can these be used on hot cakes?

No, you should wait until the cake has completely cooled to room temperature before decorating to prevent wilting.

Troubleshooting

Flowers are breaking when picked up by hand

Always use tweezers for handling and placement to avoid damaging the brittle structure.

Flower is sliding off the cake surface

Apply a tiny amount of edible adhesive or simple syrup to the back of the flower before placing it on the frosting.

Colors look dull or faded

Ensure the flowers are kept in a dark, dry container; avoid exposing them to bright light or moisture prior to use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best results, always handle the contents with clean, fine-tipped tweezers to prevent breakage. Compatibility is widest with frostings, ganache, and fondants. When applying to dry surfaces, use a tiny dot of corn syrup or edible glue to secure the piece. Store the pack in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the colors from fading. Do not store in the refrigerator, as the excess humidity will cause the pressed flowers to soften and lose their shape.
