The spices of Africa offer a world of flavor. While it might not be a cuisine that you’re familiar with, there is something for everyone. From bold, traditional Doro W’et to adding sweet, complex Ras el Hanout to Blondies, African spices certainly don’t have to be foreign or intimidating. Grab your passport to explore the World Flavors of Africa.

Africa is situated primarily between the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn. That makes it uniquely situated to be a fantastic continent for growing spices, which is also why you find such unique and flavorful spice blends. Many spices that we’re familiar with are also African spices. Some of the best vanilla in the world comes from Madagascar. Cumin, garlic, ginger, peppercorns, cinnamon, paprika and chiles are all common African spices.
