Fresh Spices for Holiday Cooking and Baking at Anatol
Épices Anatol Spices is a wholesaler also sells retail, so the prices you pay are quite good. There is a huge inventory with 60 varieties of tea and 150 herbs (some for tea infusions), and it’s only $5.99 lb. for coffee. Add to that 600 spices (cinnamon sticks, star anise), 90 kinds of nuts, whole wheat, soya and spinach pasta, buttermilk powder, sugar free candy, wasabi peas, tonka beans and henna for your hair, too.
For baking expect to find many flavour essences, bulk Callebaut chocolate, candied and dried fruits (papaya, pineapple, blueberries, peaches cherries, cranberries), and silver pieces for cake decorating. You can get even better prices by buying in larger quantities.
I asked about how long to keep spices before they lose their potancy. You can store and use grains and pieces for 2 years, powders for 1 ½ years and leafy herbs for 8-12 months.
