Every year, colour institute Pantone announces its Colour of the Year, setting the tone for design, fashion, and floristry trends all over the world. Last year’s Colour of the Year 2024, Peach Fuzz, was a great success. So, let’s give it up for the Colour of the Year 2025… Mocha Mousse! It’s a warm, rich brown that feels cozy, sophisticated, and totally timeless. Let’s dive into what makes this colour so special and how you can use Mocha Mousse flowers to create stunning arrangements.
What makes Mocha Mousse so special?
Mocha Mousse isn’t just a colour; it’s a vibe. This warm brown shade is rich and full of depth, giving off a feeling of grounded elegance. It’s sophisticated without trying too hard and has that luxurious and classic look that is perfect on its own or combined with other colours. And the best part? It’s inspired by two things we love: chocolate and coffee!
Whether you use it as the main attraction of as an accent, Mocha flowers are the perfect base for creating stunning floral designs. Its earthy tone works beautifully for all kinds of occasions, from dreamy weddings to cozy home décor.
Our favourite Mocha Mousse flowers
This gorgeous colour Mocha Mousse is Pantone’s IT-colour of the year, and we think it is a perfect colour to get creative with. If brown isn’t your usual go-to choice in arrangements, this year’s colour might not immediately bring you inspiration. So, to give you some fresh inspo, here are some of our favourite Mocha Mousse coloured flowers:
“We think Mocha Mousse is a perfect colour to get creative with!“
Ecuador Rose ‘Toffee’
With its warm, caramel-toned petals, Ecuador rose Toffee is a classic brown rose for Mocha Mousse-inspired floral designs. Perfect for weddings and luxury arrangements.
Lisianthus ‘Dyed Brownies’
Mocha lisianthus Dyed Brownies is perfect for creating that cozy feeling. Because the petals are dyed, each petal has an interesting and unique look. The soft look of the flowers and the warm colour are so cute together!
Carnation ‘Caramello’
If we were to pick a brown carnation that fits Mocha Mousse, it would be carnation Caramello. Although this carnation variety leans slightly more pink, it still carries that warm undertone that is perfect for soft, romantic designs.
Rose ‘Salty Caramel!’
Rose Salty Caramel is, surprise, a warm caramel colour. The undertone is more caramel than chocolate, but we still wanted to mention it in our Mocha Mousse list. With its warm caramel tones, this rose looks elegant in any brown flower arrangement.
Tulip ‘Dyed Soft Caramel’
Have you ever seen a brown tulip? Well now you have! This cool and unique double tulip Soft Caramel has an interesting pattern on its petals that makes it stand out even more than it already does.

How to combine Mocha Mousse flowers?
One of the best things about Mocha Mousse flowers is how easy it is to pair them with other colours and textures. Although brown flowers can shine on their own, their neutral nature makes them a fantastic complement to almost any colour palette. So, let us inspire you with some of our favourite ways to combine Mocha Mousse flowers:
Earthy flower combinations
Embrace the earthy vibe of brown by combining Mocha Mousse flowers with lots of green foliage. Add touches of last year’s Colour of the Year 2024, Peach Fuzz, for a warm and cozy look. And top it off with beige pampas grass for extra texture and height. Think rustic yet refined arrangements, perfect for weddings or seasonal displays.
Colourful floral arrangements
If you still want to keep that earthy feeling in your arrangements, but want to add a pop of colour, use your brown flowers as more accent flowers instead. Pair them with blue flowers like delphiniums, purple flowers like plum calla lilies or red flowers like burgundy dahlias to give your arrangements a fresh feel. Adding warm off-whites and greens keeps the colour palette balanced while still giving it a vibrant pop.
Neutral flower designs
If you want something a bit more simple, but still classy, go for a more neutral colour scheme. Combine your brown flowers with white roses, creamy ranunculus, or tulips. Add soft beige or taupe accents to tie everything together. This combination is perfect for timeless, minimalist arrangements or sophisticated wedding bouquets.
Mocha Mousse offers a unique opportunity to create arrangements that feel fresh, timeless, and perfectly in sync with the design trends of 2025. Whether you’re designing a wedding or creating arrangements, this colour is versatile enough to fit any occasion.
