Sugar, Spice, and Everything Nice: Essential Sweet Ingredients

People of the world, spice up your life, every boy and every girl , spice up your life!

Ginger, Scary, Baby, Posh and Sporty were the ultimate divas however you will need more than a legendary 90s girl group to spice up your pantry life. If you are new to cooking or simply trying to upgrade your cooking game these are some must have sweet spices . They will come in handy for making sweet dishes such as cakes, pies, desserts as well as holiday favorites like candied yams. I use these sweet ingredients regularly to add dimension to smoothies , sauces , tea, glazes and marinades.

Spices and herbs are typically broken up into two categories: savory and sweet. Check out my Top 10 Savory Seasoning Essentials here.
