The heat of dried habanero chiles combines with the warmth of cinnamon and ginger and a touch of brown sugar sweetness in our Jamaican Jerk blend. The blend is medium-hot on its own, but gets extra spicy in this marinade with the addition of extra habaneros. It's delicious on grilled chicken, but it also works wonders on roasted potatoes and other veggies.

This cake is made with a variety of warming spices including cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cardamom, and cloves. All of these spices create a flavor profile similar to chai, while enhancing the natural sweetness of the carrots, and bringing out the notes of caramel in the brown butter cream cheese frosting.
