Flavour pearls - Australian made gourmet garnish

Gluten free Flavour Pearls by Australian company, Peninsula Larder are a cost-effective and convenient way to add excitement and glamour to sweet and savoury dishes. Each pearl is not a solid gel but rather a capsule of intensely-flavoured liquid that pops when bitten into. As well as being a flavour sensation, Flavour Pearls are a memorable, novel experience that your customers will love.

Ideal to add to gift baskets as they don’t require refrigeration until after they are open.  Perfect to enjoy with a bottle of Champagne or Gin.  Great accompaniment for Cheese / platter inspired hampers.

Our Signature Gift Boxes are available wholesale too.

Produced using ‘Molecular Gastronomy’, each flavour has its own personality. With colours to match the various flavours, they are ideal for garnishes and can be paired with limitless dishes, canapes and finger foods. Use them on hot or cold foods and add them to champagne or cocktails.

Being gluten free, dairy free and vegan they suit many dietary requirements.

The recommended serving size is 10 pearls. Every 50g jar contains more than 160 pearls and 110g jars contain more than 340 pearls. Simply use as required then store in the fridge after opening.

The flavours

Flavour Pearls go beyond routine flavours. Truly gourmet, each exciting variety will inspire your menu and instantly elevate even the simplest dishes, sweet and savoury, to greater heights.

• Yuzu offer an intense zingy citrus burst (lemon, mandarin and grapefruit notes). With a lovely opaque pale golden colour, they will give a lift to many dishes, seafood, salads and sweets.
• Truffled Honey are a golden colour with a luxurious speckle of truffle within the pearls. Aromatic and pretty, they add a luxurious touch to your cheeses and platters.
• Honey are a unique accompaniment for your cheeseboard. They make a sophisticated topping for pikelets or crepes. Offer them as something special at breakfast on your porridge or yogurt or try them in your tea. Delicious with creamy dishes like a vanilla pannacotta or mousse.
• Shallot & Vinegar are delicate pink in colour. Created with intense white balsamic vinegar steeped with shallots they are ideal for oysters, seafood, salads and charcuterie.
• Raspberry have a fresh raspberry flavour. Try them with desserts, salads and many savoury meat dishes too.
• Lemon & Black Pepper are wonderfully aromatic with a big citrus punch. Delicious with fish and seafood. Try them with white meats or even a little grilled saganaki. A nice twist for desserts too.
• Tangerine are both versatile and beautiful. Lovely in a cocktail or champagne. Deliciously tart and eye catching, they will make your salads pop! A great contrast for a rich chocolate dessert, or a fresh burst to top a simple cheesecake. Try them with seafood too.
• Strawberry have an intense flavour and striking colour and make any dessert or cocktail special. What a talking point for your champagne toast!
• Balsamic are very versatile and striking to look at. With an intense flavour, they are brilliant as a garnish and dressing for your salad (you can dress them ahead of time and the leaves will remain crisp). Also, special with cheese and antipasto and a delicious sauce alternative for steak! Try them with strawberries. They’re like black gold.
• Soy add a rich, dark burst of intense saltiness to your dishes. Ideal for individual portions and canapés. Good in soups too. (Foodservice only.)
• Salted Caramel are a winner with all your favourite desserts. From hot puddings to ice cream and everything between. Think what a decadent cocktail they’ll make.
• Passionfruit are an elegant burst of flavour, great with many desserts and cocktails. They also work well with many savoury dishes too, seafoods and salads to name a few.
