Dried edible blue flowers are among the most elegant of natural garnishes, tiny cornflower petals of the deepest blue that bring a jewel like accent to the plate. Carefully dried to preserve their remarkable colour and delicate shape, they belong to the world of fine dining finishing touches, where a scattering of true blue is difficult to achieve with anything else in nature.

Their appeal is chiefly visual and textural. The flavour is gentle and subtly floral, mild enough never to intrude, so their real gift is the vivid colour and the sense of craft they lend to a dish. Light and papery, they can be scattered whole or crumbled, catching the eye against pale creams, dark chocolate, clear jellies or green leaves.

Chefs use them to finish desserts, cakes and chocolates, to lift salads and canapés, and to crown plated dishes with a touch of colour. They also make a beautiful decoration for cocktails and float delicately in herbal teas and infusions, a small pack going a long way across the menu.
