Mediterranean pyramid sea salt flakes 1–12 mm

Product description

Biova Mediterranean pyramid salt is a delicate flake salt made from pure sea brine with its characteristic pyramid shape. The light, white sea salt flakes from Cyprus are crisp, dissolve quickly and add a subtle finishing touch to dishes.

Gentle crystallisation creates thin, hollow pyramid flakes with a mildly salty flavour and pleasant mouthfeel. The fine, flaky grain size of around 1–12 mm is easy to crumble between your fingers and makes this flake salt an attractive bulk option for professional kitchens and foodservice.

In use, Mediterranean pyramid salt is highly versatile – from finger salt at the table to a delicate finishing salt for refined dishes. Use the sea salt flakes as a decorative topping to highlight texture and flavour.

Origin

These white salt flakes come from the Mediterranean island of Cyprus, with its sunny climate and clean seawater. These natural conditions are the basis for Biova’s consistently high-quality flake salts.

Cultivation / production / harvest

For this flake salt, sea brine is drawn from an exceptionally pure stretch of coastline, carefully filtered and crystallised in shallow heated pans. The pyramid flakes that form on the surface are skimmed off by hand and gently dried to preserve their delicate structure.

Characteristics

Typical are the light, pyramid-shaped crystals, clearly different from compactly crystallised sea salt. The fine, flaky grain ensures even salt distribution and a pleasant crunch, and makes Biova’s white flake salt in bulk ideal for high-volume users.

Differences in origin and processing

Unlike classic sea salt from open salt pans, Mediterranean pyramid salt is deliberately crystallised in heated pans. This creates hollow pyramid structures instead of broken crystals, while predominantly manual handling preserves the decorative flake shape.

Taste & aroma

On the palate, the flake salt is mildly salty with a clear, clean note. The fine sea salt flakes dissolve quickly without metallic tones, and their neutral aroma makes them easy to pair with meat, fish, vegetables and delicate starters.

Suggested uses

• As a finger salt for seasoning grilled meat, fish and vegetables directly at the table.
• To finish salads, carpaccio, bruschetta and antipasti just before serving.
• As a decorative finishing salt for gourmet dishes, finger food, buffets and plate decoration in foodservice.
