Is Saflower - Petals - 1kg the same as traditional saffron?

While often used as an affordable alternative to saffron due to the similar golden color it imparts to food, safflower comes from a different plant. It offers its own unique delicate and earthy flavor profile rather than the intense aroma associated with true saffron.

Can these petals be used in skincare products?

Yes, these petals are a popular choice as a natural colorant for cosmetics and handmade soaps. They can be infused into carrier oils or added directly to formulations to provide a gentle, natural aesthetic and botanical interest.

What is the best way to store such a large quantity?

To maintain the vibrant color and delicate fragrance of your petals, store the 1Kg pack in a cool, dry place. Keeping them in an airtight container away from direct sunlight will help preserve their natural integrity for a longer period.
