Hello Manon, seven spices is a mixture of spices used in Middle-Eastern cooking. You can find packages of pre-mixed seven spices in Middle-Eastern food stores or online. A seven spice blend usually includes: ground allspice, cinnamon, cloves, cumin, coriander, black pepper and white pepper. Although there are regional variations of this blend throughout the Middle-East.

Hi, I’m currently making small batch plum jam. I made a lot and was wondering if it’s okay to freeze? Thank you!

Hello Allison. Yes, you can freeze extra jam. Make sure to cool the jam to room temperature before transferring it to a food storage bag and storing it in the freezer. You can also pour the jam in a glass jar, but to make sure to leave about an inch of space at the top of the jar because the jam will expand once in the freezer. Thaw the jam in the refrigerator and use it within three weeks.

Hi! I’m about to make the chocolate celebration cake for our anniversary this weekend. Question, what is icing sugar? Can I use 3 cups of confectioners sugar or should I purchase 3 cups of already made buttercream frosting? Thank you!

Hi Julie, so sorry I didn't see your comment earlier. Icing sugar is the same as confectioners' sugar.
