Flavour paste Pumpkin Spice, 100 g

When autumn arrives, the scent of cinnamon, pumpkin and warm spices drifts through the bakery – and that is exactly the scent, the taste and the mood that the Flavour paste Pumpkin Spice brings to every autumn creation. The paste combines the classic Pumpkin Spice flavour with an intense, well-balanced Spice mix of cinnamon, cocoa and delicate autumn spices – warm, spiced and unmistakable. A spoonful into the Buttercream, a spoonful into the batter – and every bake smells and tastes of autumn. The Flavour paste Pumpkin Spice is not only aromatic but also exceptionally versatile. It can be stirred effortlessly into Buttercream, Ganache, Bavarois and whipped cream, lending creams and fillings a deep, spiced autumn flavour that is perceptible layer by layer in every cake and dessert. Especially in autumn cakes – whether as a filling, a topping or both – the Flavour paste fully comes into its own and gives the bake the unmistakable Pumpkin Spice character that is so popular during the autumn season.

What sets the Flavour paste Pumpkin Spice apart from other aromas is its authentic, naturally tasting pumpkin flavour and its bake-stability. The paste does not taste artificial or overpowering – it brings the warm, spiced flavour of real pumpkin with cinnamon and delicate autumn spices to every creation, just as you would expect from a home-made pumpkin cake. At the same time, it is heat-stable and can be worked directly into cupcake batter, sponge batter or other baking batters without the flavour being lost during baking. This means that the Pumpkin Spice taste is not only perceptible in the cream but already in the batter itself – a particularly intense and rounded flavour experience that convinces layer by layer. At very high baking temperatures above 200°C it is advisable to use a little more paste than usual, as intense heat can slightly diminish the flavour intensity. As a general rule: stir in the paste spoonful by spoonful and taste in between – this allows you to dose the intensity precisely to your own taste.

The possible uses of the Flavour paste Pumpkin Spice are varied and cover the full range of autumn baking. Stirred into Buttercream, it creates an autumnal, spiced cream that works equally well as a filling and topping for pumpkin cakes, autumn cupcakes and autumn slices. Worked into Ganache, the paste lends the Chocolate cream a spiced, autumnal note that pairs particularly well with dark chocolate. In Bavarois and mousse, the paste produces a creamy, aromatic autumn dessert that develops a wonderful depth in dessert glasses or as a cake insert. The Flavour paste Pumpkin Spice can also be used in ice cream making – whether in an ice cream machine or as a semifreddo. And for those who want to take the Pumpkin Spice flavour even further: the paste can also be stirred into yoghurts, warm drinks or smoothies, bringing the flavour of autumn well beyond the bakery.

Stir the Flavour paste Pumpkin Spice spoonful by spoonful into the desired cream, batter or filling and taste in between until the desired intensity is reached. The paste is intensely aromatic and develops its effect even in small quantities – so it is better to proceed step by step and not to stir in too much at once. For baking batters, follow the recommended dosage and increase the amount slightly at baking temperatures above 200°C, as intense heat can slightly diminish the flavour intensity. Close the jar well after use and store in a dark, dry place at 15–20°C. When stored correctly, the Flavour paste keeps well and is always ready for the next autumn creation.

When the first leaves fall, the pumpkins glow and the scent of cinnamon and spices drifts through the bakery, the most beautiful baking season of the year has begun – and the Flavour paste Pumpkin Spice is right at the heart of it. A spoonful into the Buttercream, a spoonful into the batter – and every creation already smells and tastes of real autumn. Whether as a spiced filling in the pumpkin cake, as an aromatic topping on the Pumpkin Spice cupcake, as a flavour carrier in the sponge or as an autumnal note in the Ganache – this paste is the key to an autumn bake that delights, warms and stays in the memory. Pumpkin Spice pure. Bring on autumn.
