Flower Pollen
Edible bee pollen granules — floral, honeyed & gently crunchy

- Botany: collected plant pollen granules (bee-gathered)
- Part used: dried granules
- Profile: floral, honey-like, faintly resinous; crisp texture
- Best for: yogurt & bowls, smoothies, fruit, pastries, salads, mild cheeses
Culinary uses
- Finish & garnish: sprinkle over yogurt, granola, fruit salads or panna cotta.
- Smoothies: blend 1–2 tsp into chilled smoothies for floral depth.
- Pastry & chocolate: dust truffles, bars or tart tops just before serving.

- Infusions (cold): steep in milk, cream or syrup for 15–30 min, then strain for a clean finish.
