Flower power

There are several ways to enliven a glass of champagne but popping in a Wild Hibiscus Flower makes your average Kir Royale seem about as exciting as a pint of flat shandy. And that's because these amazing edible buds actually bloom into flowers when dropped in anything bubbly. Amazing!

Each jar contains eleven blooms floating in a sweet, pinkish syrup. Simply place one in your champagne flute, pour in some of the syrup and then fill up with champers, sparkling wine or anything else with a bit of fizz. You can even use sparkling water.

As billions of bubbles stream off the bud it gradually opens up into a spectacular, crown-shaped flower. And when you've quaffed your champagne you can eat the booze-soaked bloom. No, really! It has a delicious raspberry and rhubarb flavour that complements champagne to perfection. What's more, because the syrup is so delicately sweet, you can add more or less to suit your taste. Cheers!

Just pour over the bloom


Grown in Australia, Wild Hibiscus Flowers are the best reason to open a bottle of champers since Bucks Fizz won Eurovision (well that skirt-pulling thing was quite impressive) and we guarantee party-goers will be gobsmacked when they see these exotic blooms in action. Use them at weddings, christenings, birthday parties - whenever.

To be honest, we find these bizarre delicacies so entrancing, not to mention scoffable, we can't resist breaking out the bubbly for the most trivial of reasons -post arriving on time, Westlife being knocked off the top of the charts etc. - and we're sure you'll feel the same. So get ordering. And don't forget: we provide the flowers, you provide the fizz. Bottoms up!

visitor avatar I got these for my mum who loves the odd gin and tonic ;) I thought it would be a nice change, and although at first she seemed confused and quite disgusted at the thought of putting one of these in her G&T, she did try it and loved it! So much so in fact, that she did not let anybody else try one out. She kept them all to herself. I do not actually know what they taste like but judging on my mums reaction, they taste very good!

visitor avatar Saw these on ThisMorning about a year ago and have saved this page ever since. Getting married in December 2011 and plan on having them for wedding toast.
Michelle, SE London - 16th January 2011
visitor avatar I recently purchased these items but unfortunately there was a problem with the delivery. I contacted Firebox and communicated with a guy called Kristian in customer service. The service he provided was second to none. He sorted out the problem efficiently and to my satisfaction. I would recommend them to anyone. Thank you. By the way the product is also good!!
Chris Jevins, Wakefield - 23rd December 2010
visitor avatar These were a fantastic idea my mum and I stumbled across and new instantly I wanted them for my birthday to pop in champagne! They're so original and no-one had ever seen anything like it, so it went down a treat, they made everything look so pretty and added a lovely taste. Especially as my 18th birthday was pink themed they even made the champagne pink. So happy with them, the two jar deal is such good value for money as well. Looking forward to the second jar for Christmas, going to make it really special and go down well I'm sure!
Kate Harden-England, Devon - 6th December 2010
visitor avatar Can it be used in coke? I'm 12 :D.
Harry, South Wales - 4th December 2010
Firebox says: It should work, but the flavour might be a bit weird! You might be better off using sparkling water.
visitor avatar First item was broken when received and Firebox replaced it immediately. Thanks Firebox, you have customer service sorted 100%. One of the best Customer Services experiences I have ever had. Will make an excellent Christmas gift.
Kay Davies, Swansea - 25th November 2010
visitor avatar These are so cute got them as a present love them. One question though; I opened them a month ago. Will they still be ok?
Marie, London - 9th November 2010
Firebox says: If you've kept them refrigerated then they should be okay but the manufacturer does stat that if opened the shelf life is reduced so it would be best to use them as soon as you can for the best results.
