Travel across continents and awaken your taste buds with the spices of the world!
Sandrine invites you to discover the spices of the world during a two-hour workshop, during which you will create your own custom spice blend for cooking!
You will be welcomed into a cosy workshop, filled with the incredible aroma of a thousand spices.
You will sit comfortably while the passionate producer presents the history and culture of each spice (supply chain, country of production, characteristics, varieties, manufacturing process).
Your palate will begin to tingle with excitement at the thought of discovering all the flavors. You will taste, smell, touch, and break different spices from around the world. Depending on the workshop theme, you will learn how to create a curry, za'atar, or garam masala!
Sandrine will explain the art of spice blending and guide you in creating your very own spice blend, using a traditional mortar or manual grinder.
At the end of the workshop, you will leave with your own unique and personalised spice blend, ready to transform your dishes with your own culinary signature!
This experience will stay with you long after the exotic aroma of the spices has dissipated.This workshop is provided in several languages simultaneously. The artisan will adapt the language of the workshop according to the participants present.

Born into a family passionate about gastronomy and travel, Sandrine began her career in finance before setting off to explore the Congo, where she fell in love with Kivu pepper.
Since then, she has been constantly traveling the world in search of rare and exceptional spices, which she produces and markets with passion and commitment.
Her production network in the Congo guarantees impeccable quality and traceability for spices such as cinnamon, cumin, coriander, vanilla, pepper, and of course the famous Kivu pepper.
But the passionate artisan doesn't stop there: Sandrine also offers origin spices and specialties from other producers and regions around the world.
In November 2021, she took the leap and opened her shop in the heart of Brussels, becoming an Ali Baba's cave of spices for foodies and cooking enthusiasts.
Through her love for spices, Sandrine aims to awaken consciousness and taste buds by sharing her expertise on spice production, drying, and usage in cooking.
Her captivating personality and unique experience will transport you on an exceptional sensorial journey.
