Épices Rœllinger Creations For Desserts And Fruits<Poudre des Bulgares® (Bulgarian blend)

Lightly sweetened with Cambodian palmyra palm flower sugar and flavored with Madagascar and Papua New Guinea vanilla beans and a hint of saffron. A few toasted sesame and flax seeds add a nutty note while a rosebud rounds the blend out with a wholly feminine touch.

Each jar or packet contains a single rosebud that continues to lend its scent to the spice blend. When the container is empty, add the bud to a jar of pure cane sugar. That way, none of its delicious fragrance goes to waste.

When I was a teenager, I had the good fortune to be able to explore Hungary, Bulgaria and the Balkan countries on a moped. The culinary heritage I discovered there was a blend of both eastern and western influences. I still remember the unique flavor of the fermented dairy products I tasted. Poudre des Bulgares® was created as an homage to these cultures which have been defined and enhanced by both East and West. I love the silken consistency of yogurt when you first plunge a spoon into its creamy thickness, but otherwise, I find yogurt to be a little sad.
In developing this blend, my focus was on the first taste I would like to have in my mouth at breakfast time. The flavors should awaken me with a gentleness similar to the caress a mother uses to wake up her small child. After five years of research, I think I’ve found a way to embody this everyday, magical, and intensely personal moment, when we all awake to life in the protective shadow of a mother’s love.
