Ground mace adds unique flavor to savory and sweet dishes at your restaurant or bakery.
An essential spice for any kitchen, ground mace is golden brown in color, and its rich and aromatic flavor is warming to the palate. Mace is derived from the dried and ground outer covering of the nutmeg seed, which grows on a tropical evergreen tree. Although mace comes from the same tree as nutmeg, it features a more pungent taste and smell. However, both of these spices contain a similar flavor profile and pair well with allspice, ginger, cinnamon, and cloves.
