Cardamom is one of the most valued spices in the world with an intense aromatic flavour used to bring out the best in both savoury and sweet dishes.

Cardamom can be blended with other spices to bring out its sweet, aromatic characteristics. Adding a pinch to baking spice will create new depth and dimension in your baked goods. You can also mix it with individual baking spices, like cinnamon, cloves, and ginger. It’s delicious in zucchini bread or carrot cake, which showcases sweet and savory ingredients.
