Apfelzauber

Apfelzauber, the fruity and floral spice blend for apple, pear and sweet desserts

Apfelzauber brings warmth and gentle sweetness to any sweet dish. We make the blend in our manufactory in Klingenberg am Main. Cinnamon blossoms and lemon myrtle set the tone, joined by meadowsweet, orange and chamomile blossoms, vanilla, cardamom and a touch of timut pepper. The result is fruity, floral and finely spiced, made for apple pie, compote and everything that smells of autumn and the bakery.

How to use

Apfelzauber is a dessert and baking spice. Stir it into apple sauce, apple and pear compote, semolina pudding or crumble dough, season apple pie and baked apples with it, or dust it over pancakes, yoghurt, quark and muesli. Sweet yeast pastries gain a floral note too.

Good to know: The blend already contains sugar and is floral and intense. For dusting, use sparingly with a pinch and adjust to taste.
