About Safae

Saffron comes from the saffron crocus (Crocus sativus). When this plant blooms, it produces fabulous purple flowers. Every flower contains three blood-red pistils and yellow stamens. You need an incredible 150 saffron crocuses to produce a single gram of saffron! That makes growing saffron very labour-intensive and expensive.

Safae is the first ‘Do it Yourself’ (DIY) spice concept that makes it possible to grow your own saffron. If you buy a Safae saffron crocus, you can experience the beauty of saffron in a unique way. Firstly, you can really enjoy the saffron crocus when it flowers, and then you can observe the saffron-making process up close.

And finally: the ultimate taste experience! Experience the added value of the spice saffron in the kitchen for yourself. We have listed some delicious recipes for you.
