When you want a distinctive deep burgundy botanical ingredient for beverages and culinary creations, The Spice Lab Whole Hibiscus Flowers offer a convenient option for home and professional kitchens.
Despite the familiar product name, the supplied product information explains that these are fleshy, trumpet-shaped, deep burgundy fruits that develop after hibiscus flowers bloom. Available in several package sizes, including a 1-pound resealable bag, they work for occasional use as well as restaurants, cafés, beverage programs, caterers and other foodservice operations.

The name can be a little misleading. According to the supplied product information, what are commonly referred to here as hibiscus flowers are actually fleshy, trumpet-shaped fruits that grow after hibiscus flowers bloom.
Their naturally deep burgundy appearance makes them a distinctive ingredient for culinary and beverage applications where whole hibiscus is called for.
Bulk Hibiscus for Restaurants, Cafés & FoodserviceThe 1-pound resealable bag provides a bulk foodservice option for businesses that use hibiscus regularly. It can be a practical format for restaurants, cafés, beverage programs, caterers, food trucks and other specialty food vendors that need more product than a typical home-use package.
Smaller operations can choose the package size that matches their volume, while the resealable bulk format helps keep a larger working quantity conveniently packaged between uses.

With over 35 years of smoking experience, we started DDR BBQ Supply with a simple goal: to help others cook better barbecue. We've spent decades learning what works and what doesn't, and we apply that knowledge to every product we carry. From high-performance grills and smokers to carefully selected rubs, sauces, and tools, everything we offer is something we believe in and use ourselves. We don’t believe in cutting corners or selling gear we wouldn’t rely on during our own backyard cooks and when we compete in BBQ competitions.
