Meet Ground Nutmeg (Myristica fragrans) — the warm, aromatic spice that has graced kitchens and apothecaries for centuries. With its sweet-spicy depth and velvety finish, nutmeg transforms both sweet and savoury dishes — from cakes, custards, and mulled wine to creamy sauces, curries, and stews.

Native to the Banda Islands, nutmeg was once so prized it was worth more than gold, making it a star of the spice trade. Today, it remains an essential seasoning across global cuisines and a trusted herbal in traditional remedies for digestion and warmth. Hand-ground and hand-packed in Wollongong, it’s a Sweet Seductions classic that lingers long after the first taste.
