Where to buy rosebuds

Our pink rose buds are harvested from organic stands. Organic rose buds have become increasingly difficult to source over the years, narrowing the availability of this product. While we strive to consistently bring you the best quality rose buds, variations in appearance can occur between lots. Rose buds can fluctuate from tightly closed buds to loosely-open with petals almost falling off.

Roses with eight petals were conceived as symbols of rebirth during the Renaissance. Through this time, the rose also became known for war. The War of the Roses happened when York and Lancaster of England went to war; the battle earned this name because the red rose represented Lancaster, and the white rose represented York. Roses were a luxury item in the 17th century, with some royals in Europe counting rose buds and rose water as authorised tender. The cultivation process was introduced to Europe from China, where they had already been growing the plants for quite a while.

From Europe, they sailed to America with immigrants coming to the new world. Rosebuds are usually applied to infuse flavour into foods, but they taste floral and earthy, with a slight sweetness. Some people may say the flavour of rosebuds is similar to strawberries. They have a light, sweet fruit flavour with a nice, smooth texture in addition to their beauty.

Rosebuds can add a complex floral taste to juices, lemonades, and iced tea. Add some fresh rosebuds to release the flavour, and turn them into a cold, fruity beverage.

You can also freeze Rosebuds into ice cubes for a gorgeous and delicious punch. Rose simple syrup: Mix equal parts of water and sugar in a pot and bring it to a boil. Stir continuously until the sugar is fully dissolved. Reduce to a simmer and stir in drained or fresh rosebuds.

Remove the mixture from the heat and let it sheer for about 10 minutes. Strain out the rosebuds with an excellent sifter and allow the syrup to chill. Rose simple syrup can be delicious in cocktails, tea, and lemonade. Rose sugar: Chop up one-half cup of rosebuds and combine them with two cups of sugar. Flow the sugar into a tight tin and store it in a cold, dark location for about one week. Strain the sugar in a sieve into a clean glass jar to separate the petals.

A few of them can remain. This floral sugar is excellent for tea or to sprinkle on top of cookies. Rose butter: Chop up aromatic rose buds and mix them into softened butter. You can also add finely ground sugar or nut extract for additional sweetness. For thousands of years, rosebud tea has been a part of Eastern cultures and Chinese medicine Our lovely, aromatic, flavourful pink rosebuds add a special dimension to many Persian, Middle Eastern and Indian recipes.
