THE GLOBAL ROOTS OF YOUR FAVORITE FALL SPICE

Pumpkin pie spice is more than just a fall favorite—its ingredients come from all around the world, each with rich culinary histories. Cinnamon, often considered the star of the blend, originates from Sri Lanka and has been treasured for thousands of years. Ginger, native to Southeast Asia, brings a zesty warmth and has been used both in cooking and medicine. Cloves, sourced from the Maluku Islands in Indonesia, offer a rich, aromatic kick, while nutmeg, native to the Banda Islands, adds a subtle sweetness. Together, these spices have traveled across continents and centuries to create the perfect blend for your fall favorites.

Why Use Whole Nutmeg?

Freshly grated nutmeg releases essential oils that give it a richer, more vibrant flavor than pre-ground varieties. When you grate it just before using, you capture all of its natural warmth and complexity, making a noticeable difference in both sweet and savory dishes. Plus, whole nutmeg has a longer shelf life, so you'll always have that aromatic, freshly-ground goodness on hand when you need it!
