Cauliflower’s sophisticated, more flavourful cousin

There’s a new cauli in town. With delicate florets and a sweetly mild flavour, Cauli-Blossom® strikes that fine balance between amazing taste, great nutrition and convenience. Creamy white in colour with tiny buttery blossoms and slender green stems, its edible from stalk to crown and is every bit as tasty raw as it is cooked. You can dip it, shred it, pickle it, steam it, sear it, bbq it, bake it, air-fry it… the possibilities really are endless. Another thing you’ll love about this versatile veggie? Its tender crunch adds just the right amount of texture to meals and snacks and there’s nothing to trim off before beginning prep – no waste! Your most difficult decision will be in choosing from the many ways to serve it up.

Prepping Cauli-Blossom®

Cauli-Blossom needs little preparation, and you can eat the whole veggie. Simply pull apart the floret bouquet and use. For larger florets, you can slice them in half lengthways.
