Poudre Douche – French Inspired Spice Blend for Sweet & Savory Recipes

“Poudre Douche” means “soft/sweet powder” in French, and true to its name, this delicate spice blend is used primarily to add flavor to both savory and sweet recipes.

The warm touch of cinnamon and ginger is balanced by the depth of allspice and the slight sharpness of black pepper. Brown sugar softens the strong character of these spices, creating a velvety flavor profile.

This special blend, inspired by French cuisine, adds an extraordinary touch to some meat and vegetable dishes as well as desserts. For those looking for a culinary touch that combines the classic with the creative.
