Frequently Asked Questions

Are your rose petals safe for direct food application? +
Yes, our food-grade edible rose petals are certified safe for direct application to food products. All petals undergo rigorous HACCP certification, pesticide testing, and microbial screening to comply with FDA food safety standards. Our petals are pesticide-free, hormone-free, and contain no synthetic additives. They meet ISO 22000 food safety management standards and are tested for heavy metals and microbial contamination before packaging. You can confidently use them in Turkish delight, ice cream, macarons, cakes, and any culinary application without safety concerns.
What is the shelf life of your food-grade rose petals? +
Properly stored food-grade rose petals have a shelf life of 12-18 months from the date of processing. Storage conditions are critical: keep petals in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Our hermetically sealed packaging with moisture barriers ensures optimal preservation. Once opened, transfer remaining petals to an airtight container and store in a cool, dark location. If petals are exposed to humidity or high temperatures, shelf life may be reduced. For maximum freshness and flavor potency, we recommend using within the first 6 months of opening.
Can I use rose petals as a natural food coloring alternative? +
Absolutely. Our edible rose petals can be used to create natural food coloring for confectionery products. For liquid color, steep petals in warm water or alcohol to extract the pigments, then strain. For powder coloring, grind dried petals into a fine powder. Rose petal color ranges from pale pink to deep crimson depending on rose variety and extraction method. This natural coloring is perfect for macarons, frosting, fondant, glazes, and ice cream. It's a clean-label alternative to synthetic dyes and aligns with organic and natural product certifications. The color is food-grade, non-GMO, and contains no chemical additives.
What minimum quantities do you offer for wholesale food industry orders? +
We offer flexible ordering options for food industry partners. Retail packaging starts at small quantities, while wholesale and commercial orders typically begin at 5kg minimum. For large manufacturing operations, we can accommodate bulk orders in 25kg, 50kg, or 100kg quantities with customized pricing and delivery arrangements.
