Meghan Markle’s Netflix series With Love, Meghan has been making headlines since its release, mostly for controversies—whether it is the debated name plagiarism, her reported desire to be called Meghan Sussex, or simply how dull fans claim it to be. Yet, despite the backlash, one unexpected detail from the series has captivated global attention. It is not the drama, the aesthetics, or even Markle herself, but rather a certain food featured in the show—and its impact is undeniable.

The surest way to captivate is through the palate, and that is exactly what has stolen the spotlight in Meghan Markle’s show, eclipsing the controversies surrounding it.

While Meghan Markle’s hosting style—featuring elegant gift baskets and vibrant food spreads—caught some attention, it was the edible flowers that instantly captivated audiences worldwide. Their delicate beauty and unique appeal sparked a wave of fascination, driving a surge in demand. Consumer insights platform Tastewise reports a 27.5% global increase in edible flower consumption compared to last year. Meanwhile, Google searches for incorporating edible flowers into meals and cocktails have skyrocketed by 300%, making them one of the most sought-after ingredients of the season.

Tastewise CEO Alon Chen notes that edible flowers are transforming seasonal flavours, adding elegance and creativity to modern cuisine. Varieties such as hibiscus, lavender, chamomile, and elderflower are captivating consumers with their mild flavours and striking aesthetics. This trend encourages brands and home cooks to explore unique pairings, combining floral accents with vibrant fruits like strawberry, lemon, and even tomato to craft bold, unexpected culinary experiences. With Meghan Markle officially announcing Season 2, viewers are eager to see what new culinary inspirations she will bring next.
