Why Pyramid Flakes?
Not all sea salt is made equal. The all natural pyramid flake crytals we craft require a lot of love and care (and a lot of boring science stuff we won't go into) . We make them because it's worth it. Owing to their crystalline structure, these hollow pyramid sea salt flakes last longer on the surface of food (comprared to a fine / table salt). This makes them the perfect 'finishing salt'. Their large surface area brings a burst of salinity in concentrated areas, resulting in a heterogenous eating experience. Sprinkled on a plate just before serving they bring texture (a salty crunch), a boost of flavour, and beautful presentation to all of your dishes.
Beautiful Salt From a Beautiful Place
Your sea salt doesn't need to come from one of the world's most beautiful islands, but you'll be happy that it does! We draw from some of the cleanest and fastest moving waters in the world. Every drop of seawater that enters our harvestry is put to use. The ocean minerals that don't make it into our salt find a purpose feeding local dairy cattle or enriching the soil on the stunning 400 acre farm where we're located.
Step 1: Water Collection
We draw seawater from some of the fastest moving waters in the world, only at high tide from our own beautiful 2km stretch of private beach.
Step 2: Filtration
Multiple stages of micro-filtration remove any impurities in the water while leaving the salt and healthy trace minerals for harvesting.
Step 3: Concentration
The filtered seawater is gently boiled under vacuum pressure into a concentrated brine.
Step 4: Crystallization
Concentrated brine is moved to shallow open evaporation tanks where it slowly transforms into beautiful flaky pyramid crystals, after which it is hand-harvested and hand-packaged.

From the brand
Canada's Sea Salt
Your sea salt doesn't need to come from one of the world's most beautiful islands, but you'll be happy that it does!
-
Canada's First Sea Salt
In 2010 we set out to put Canada on the world map for sea salt. Why? It occured to us that, despite having one of the longest and most pristine shorelines in the world, our amazing country did not produce sea salt. We changed that. Now you can enjoy a world-class sea salt made with true Canadian values - purity, honesty, and sustainability.
-
The Purist Source
The idyllic shores of Vancouver Island create the perfect “merroir” for crafting a world class sea salt. Located on a stunning 400 acre farm with over 2 km of untouched ocean frontage on Oyster Bay, we draw from some of the fastest moving ocean currents in the world. Nearby rivers are glacier fed, bringing a unique blend of minerals to our salt while keeping our water source clean and unspoiled.
-
Sustainability Focused
Every drop of seawater entering our saltworks now ends up in some form of value added product. Our main by-products, including fresh water and concentrated ocean mineral brine (what remains after we harvest sea salt), is used in nearby agriculture and by other local artisans in dozens of different products.

- Reviewed in the United States on March 6, 2026Flavor Name: Flake Sea SaltSize: 8.8 Ounce (Pack of 1)Verified PurchaseFlaky & flavorful with a nice, light crunch. Salt comes in a non-resealable bag inside a carton. So, expect to pour it into another container to keep it dry.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 5, 2026Flavor Name: Flake Sea SaltSize: 8.8 Ounce (Pack of 1)Verified PurchaseLove this flaky salt. Taste's great on everything.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2024Flavor Name: Flake Sea SaltSize: 8.8 Ounce (Pack of 1)Verified PurchaseI may have already rated. I have been using flaked sea salt for 20 years. It took a week or two for me to understand the importance of this as an after cooking finishing salt. Avoid, as in do not use this as a cooking or marinade salt. Flaked sea salt is for a final touch. It is not a garnish. It sinks into the surface area of a dish such as pasta, meats, items french fries-cheeses-fish etc, citrus sauces, be. laight with this salt. It is very salty so a little goes a long way. If you use it to finish a pan sauté or pan fried item sprinkle around it so that the oils or pan sauce absorb the salt. Once I learned how to use this salt it became and still is a salt I keep on the counter using it as a finishing salt. Practice. Use this by your own explorations. Do not be bold, use it with the lightest touch. It is so very easy to oversalt a dish. I learned by customer response. That was rough love. The pastas were not ruined, they just could not understand why I was so heavy with salt when this was never an issue with my food. Yes, I did send out perfect replacement pastas and comped a few meals. Costly education. Take heed of my experience so you avoid this mistake. You will find this particular salt a favorite. Have fun. Expand on your knowledge of how salt works. Highly recommended.

Flavor Name: Flake Sea SaltSize: 35 Ounce (Pack of 1)Verified PurchaseVery high quality sea salt that tastes great and looks amazing as a finishing salt on the plate. Many of the flakes are massive and is exactly what I was hoping to find. My search is now over because these salt flakes are as good as it gets as far as I’m concerned.
