Nothing dresses up a moment quite like fresh flowers—and ours are also edible!
Flowers bring intense colors and beautiful shapes to food presentation, but it’s very important that the flowers used are sold as edible. Not only are many flower varieties not safe to eat, but usually the flowers you see in stores weren’t grown to be eaten, they were grown to be looked at. This means they have likely been sprayed or grown with chemicals that may be safe to touch or smell but could leech into surrounding food and should never be consumed. These edible flowers have been selected for their color and appearance but grown to be safe for human consumption.
