Tambuzi Garden Roses and the Elegance of Mocha Mousse
30 Jan 2025
The Pantone Colour of the Year has long been a source of inspiration across industries, from fashion and interiors to art and florals. This year, the spotlight falls on the sophisticated and earthy hue of Mocha Mousse. Warm, rich, and undeniably grounding, this shade evokes the velvety embrace of luxurious chocolates, the inviting aroma of freshly brewed coffee, and the timeless beauty of nature. It’s a colour that speaks of stability, understated elegance, and comfort — a perfect muse for florists and designers alike.
But what of roses in Mocha Mousse? While nature may not offer us roses in this exact shade, Tambuzi Garden Roses has curated a stunning collection that harmonizes beautifully with this tone, bringing its essence to life in the most enchanting way.
