About Us

OUR PROMISE

Delivering perfect hand-picked edible flowers year round


The world’s most sought-after edible flower brand

The fastidious nature of a chef’s craft and the dishes created requires a tailored product reflecting their individuality and one that offers new interpretations and innovation in texture, flavour and colour.

A word from our Founder

For Jocelyn Cross, both the kitchen and garden are places of contemplation and pleasure – they’re not about the work that’s involved, but a place to be creative and resourceful.

Environment & community

Petite Ingredient is dedicated to sustainable farming and organic practices, and works closely with expert botanists and agronomists to ensure all plant food and pest sprays used are organically certified and food safe.

Petite Ingredient is committed to supporting the local Yarra Valley community and building collaborative relationships and friendships with neighbouring farms, producers and providores.

Grown in the volcanic soils of the Yarra Valley

The naturally occurring red volcanic soil’s high nitrogen content is an essential ingredient for prolific and strong plant growth, which is why Petite Ingredient has chosen the region to base our greenhouses.

Trusted by the world’s best chefs
