Gingerbread spice – homemade gingerbread, what could be better? Cinnamon, cloves, cinnamon flowers and ginger merge with orange and lemon into a deep, wintry spice that makes every baked treat smell warm, aromatic and festive.
· Category: Spice blend
· Taste: warm-spicy, sweetish, fruity, wintry, balanced
· Use: gingerbread, festive baking, desserts, hot drinks, jams
· Format: 50 g jar
My tip: Let the dough rest with the spice overnight – this brings out warmth, fruitiness and depth especially intensely.
Origin & Story
Gingerbread spice has been part of the European baking tradition for centuries and is closely tied to the Christmas season. As early as the Middle Ages, aromatic honey cakes were sold at markets, refined with exotic spices such as cinnamon, cloves or cardamom. I developed this blend to bring the classic taste of gingerbread to your kitchen in an authentic, harmonious and balanced way.
Highlights
The spice blend combines the sweet-warm spice of cinnamon, cloves and cinnamon flowers with the fresh fruitiness of orange and lemon zest. Ginger brings a fine heat, while cardamom, coriander and mace round off the aroma. Star anise adds extra depth. The blend is finely ground and ready to use straight away – ideal for gingerbread, festive baking and wintry desserts. The exact recipe remains my secret.
Quality
All the spices come from controlled growing regions and are mixed fresh, single-batch and exclusively by hand. In my manufactory the blend is filled with no additives or technical aids – all-natural, intense and harmoniously balanced.
The best spices have always inspired me to create new dishes. Only the best is good enough to reach the very top – for you, in your kitchen. 100% natural. Just the way I use it myself, every day.
Tip from Tobias Funke
I recommend using gingerbread spice not only for classic baking. In warm milk, in chocolate or in a crème dessert it also creates a festive, aromatic depth. For a special aroma, I like best to let the dough rest with the spice overnight.
