With the exception of cinnamon and ginger and most gingerbread cakes, I pretty much don't like spicy or hot elements in my sweet treats. I love chile in savory dishes, but not in my dark chocolate bars or mixed into any chocolate desserts. I like black pepper, but not in a cookie. Cardamom has always been a puzzle to me. Fine as an ingredient in curries, etc., but in coffee or pancakes or sweet breads forget it.
I absolutely can't stand anything pumpkin pie spice, so I pass on pumpkin spice latte or pumpkin pie. I love sweet potato pie but I make it without the traditional pumpkin spices. And I'm not fond of cakes that are described as "spice cake." So don't expect to bump into me at National Pfeffernusse Day events!
