Notes
Store our Homemade Gingerbread Spice blend the same way you would store your other kitchen spices. Sealed tightly in a sealed jar in a cool dark place out of direct sunlight. This will ensure your spice blend stays fresh and fragrant for as long as possible.Keep sealed for 6 months for the freshest flavor, the gingerbread flavor will lessen over time so it's ideal to use it up within a year or two at most. Freeze your spices for an even longer shelf life.Pepper - Yes, ground black pepper can bring a few spicey notes to this bold spice mix.Choosing a container – Opt for a larger container rather than a smaller one.
