Our Cornflower edible flowers come in a variety of colours, including blue, pink and purple, making them a great baking decoration. Cornflowers have a variety of uses, thanks to their mild flavours and delicate petals. For culinary preparations, the edible flower petals can be pulled from the centre and used as confetti. For example, to garnish many sweet and savoury dishes. In addition, these can be sprinkled atop salads, grazing platters, desserts and to decorate the plate. Bachelor’s Buttons can also be used whole to garnish larger dishes and to toss through salads. Commonly, these vibrant and delicate flowers are used to decorate cakes. As well as using them whole, the Cornflower petals can be easily pressed into buttercream cakes, or mixed through soft cheeses.

Taste: Cornflower edible flowers Latin name is Centaurea Cyanus and they possess a mild peppery clove aroma, with a mild sweet spice flavour. For a unique twist, cornflowers can be used in hot teas, for a floral-bitter taste.
