As you experiment, you may find that some savory spices enhance sweet flavors or that different chilies complement chocolate desserts. We encourage you to play around in the kitchen and experiment with with sweets and spices.
The easiest way to begin experimenting with spices in desserts is by using a blank canvas recipe. This is means choosing a fairly simple recipe as a base and adding different herbs and spices.
We recommend using a base recipe like shortbread, olive oil cake, or even brownies. Make the recipe and then divide the batter into different bowls. Add different spices and herbs and have fun experimenting with flavors!
