Mixed spice, also called pudding spice, is a British〔(Mixed Spice (Pudding Spice) )〕 blend of sweet spices, similar to the pumpkin pie spice used in the United States. Cinnamon is the dominant flavour, with nutmeg and allspice. It is often used in baking, or to complement fruits or other sweet foods. The term "mixed spice" has been used for this blend of spices in cookbooks at least as far back as 1828〔''A supplement to the pharmacopœias'' by Samuel Frederick Gray. 1828.〕 and probably much earlier. Mixed spice is very similar to a Dutch spice mix called ''koekkruiden'' or ''speculaaskruiden'', which are used mainly to spice food associated with the Dutch Sinterklaas celebration at December 5. ''Koekkruiden'' contain cardamom. ==Ingredients== Mixed spice typically contains: *Cinnamon (or cassia) *Nutmeg *Allspice It may also contain, or commonly have added to it: *Cloves *Ginger *Coriander (seed) *Caraway *Cayenne pepper〔〔''The practice of cookery, pastry, confectionary, pickling, preserving,'' by Frazer. 1820.
