Introducing my Cacao-Maple Mélange, a spice blend born from the crossroads of my Swiss heritage and Canadian home. Inspired by the breathtaking Swiss Alps and the maple-laden landscapes of Canada, Cacao-Maple Mélange is a celebration of two distinct cultures united in a single spice blend. The visual allure of the mix is its rich chocolatey hue that is intertwined with hints of warm cinnamon and golden maple. The aroma of this blend is where the magic lies. It is warm and cozy and will transport you to a chalet nestled in the mountains. The sweet embrace of maple mingles with the warm spiciness of cloves and cinnamon, creating an aromatic journey that captivates the senses. When tasted, the blend unfolds like a story – the deep, robust cacao notes balance harmoniously with the sweet warmth of maple sugar and cinnamon, while the subtle and delicate citrusy zing of orange and cardamom adds a refreshing twist. This unique combination of flavors reflects the culinary tastes of both of my worlds. Cacao-Maple Mélange is versatile, elevating both sweet and savory dishes. Sprinkle it over your morning pancakes, stir it into hot chocolate, or use it as a secret ingredient in savory stews and roasts. The taste evolves with heat and time, intensifying its complexity as it cooks. Add it early for a gradual infusion or later for a burst of bold flavor. Crafted with love and a nod to my roots, Cacao-Maple Mélange is more than a spice blend; it's a culinary journey through the mountains and forests, a fusion of cultures that transforms every dish into a celebration. Uses:

In sweet treats: Add to your brownie or cookie batter for a hint of chocolate and spice.

In hot beverages: Stir it into hot cocoa, coffee, or even a chai tea for a Swiss-Canadian twist.

On desserts: Dust it over ice cream, yogurt, or chocolate mousse for a delightful garnish.

In savory dishes: Sprinkle it on roasted meats like pork or chicken or add it to your stews for a unique and exotic flavor.

I did not grow up baking, nor was I exposed to baking spices beyond cinnamon. As I started my baking journey as an adult, I steered clear of unfamiliar spices – sticking to that cinnamon, with the occasional foray into nutmeg and cloves. Along the way I discovered what would quickly become my most loved and used spices – cardamom and ginger – along with the beautiful lift that a bit of salt gives to a sweeter recipe. This blend reflects how I bake today, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
