Dried Hibiscus Flowers (10kg)

Dried hibiscus flowers are deep red, tart-flavoured blooms supplied in a bulk box for cafes, restaurants, caterers and drinks producers across the UK. Also known as roselle, they are steeped in hot or cold water to give a ruby-red infusion with a sharp, cranberry-like flavour. One wholesale pack goes a long way in a commercial kitchen, because the flowers can be brewed in large batches for teas, syrups and cold drinks.

Key Features of Wholesale Dried Hibiscus Flowers

• Deep Ruby Colour: The flowers release a vivid red into water. Drinks, syrups, sorbets and poaching liquids all take on a rich, eye-catching shade.

• Easy to Batch Brew: Steep hot for immediate service or cold-brew overnight, then strain. One preparation can cover a full day's drinks.
• Storage & Handling: Keep in an airtight container in a cool, dry place, away from sunlight and strong odours, and reseal after opening. The pigment stains, so wipe worktops promptly and use non-porous containers.
