Botanical Name: Centaurea Cyanus
Country of Origin: Albania
Common Name: Cornflower Petals Blue
English Name: Blue Cornflower Petals
French Name: Pétales de Bleuet Bleu
Also Known As: Bachelor’s Button Petals, Centaurea cyanus Petals, Dried Blue Cornflower Petals, Blue Cornflower Flowers
Part Used: Dried flower petals of Centaurea cyanus
Description: Cornflower Petals Blue are prepared from the vivid blue outer petals of Centaurea cyanus, an annual flowering plant native to Europe and widely cultivated in temperate regions. The plant grows with slender, upright stems and narrow green leaves, producing distinctive bright blue flower heads. The petals are separated from the flower head at full bloom to preserve their intense natural colour and delicate shape.
After harvesting, the petals are carefully cleaned to remove green base material and field debris. They are then dried using controlled air-drying or low-temperature methods to reduce moisture while maintaining the vibrant blue colour and fine petal texture. This gentle drying process helps retain the visual quality and lightweight structure of the petals.
The finished blue cornflower petals are thin, lightweight, and uniformly coloured with a rich blue hue. The dried petals remain intact with minimal breakage, offering a clean, free-flowing botanical ingredient that is easy to handle, blend, and store. Their striking appearance makes them well suited for applications where visual appeal is important.
Uses: Cornflower Petals Blue are used in culinary applications such as tea-style infusions, beverage blends, desserts, baking decorations, and specialty food garnishes. They are also widely used in cosmetic formulations, handmade soaps, bath products, potpourri-style blends, resin art, candle making, and botanical craft projects where bright blue floral material is desired for colour and visual interest.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, dark place in a well-sealed container.
