“Picquant Post is amazing! The spices were great quality and I love being able to sample flavors from around the world. The customer service was great and helped me add on an additional item after I submitted my order. We had a great experience!!”
“Liked the product, but did not see a way to have subscription start at a date of my choosing. So a christmas present arrived the 8th of december. Oh well”
“I loved this subscription package and I’ve used it for multiple foodies in my life. If you know someone that enjoys cooking, this is a wonderful gift for them. It allows them to explore spices that they usually might not use and is an excellent gift for anyone who loves cooking.”
“these are the most fun spice blends to play with. I used the Sweet Savory Nordic blend for Swedish meatballs. I love the Peri Peri for Chicken and turkey, kaffir lime is amazing anytime you want to make Thai, Chorico is a favorite in almost everything.
I love to cook and bake and Piquant Post's little spice mixes are the best!!!!”
“I've only gotten 1 package so far, but I enjoy the little recipes and spice packets (fresh and still pungent). The only thing is that I was hoping for some more variety and the first package I got was a little too familiar to me (shichimi, gochugaru, furikake, curry). Still I like the package overall. So, realistically, it's more like a 4.5, dinged slightly just because I bought this originally to try new spice blends I might never have picked up on my own, or at least not full jars of, and I just didn't get it on this one.”
“I love getting new and exciting spices delivered to my door every month. I especially love the recipe cards and ability to check the website for other recipes!”
“The year's delivery was a big hit! The reciipients loved the spices and the interesting recipes that accompanied them. I highly recommend Piquant Post.”
“I love receiving spices from Piquant Post every month! Every spice blend I've tried is fresh and delicious, and I've been enjoying trying the recipes for all of them. I appreciate the variety of recipes on the website, especially the options for plant-based and vegetarian dishes.
I was given a 6 month subscription as a gift, and when the subscription was nearing its end, it was really easy for me to renew. Every month, the package arrives quickly without issue.”
“As the buyer for the gift subscription, I’d like to know what’s being shipped so I can ask about the specific spices and if she’s enjoying them. Even if a schedule was online for me to see. I have no idea what I’m sending her. Great communication though on shipment status.”
Hi Tiffany,
You can see what we ship in the monthly susbcription by simply going to our recipe gallery and browsing the recipes posted for the given month. While we post more digital recipes than we ship to customers, you will see the spice blends used in the recipes on each recipe page and we only ship 4 spices per month. Hope that helps!
“I renewed a subscription and I received the same spices as before. When I contacted customer service I never got a reply. I had done it as a gift and was extremely disappointed the person got repeats of the same things.”
Hannah, sorry that you were disappointed that 2nd gift subscription sent some repeat spices. To clarify, we have enough spice blends in our catalog that we don't send repeat spice blends in a 22 months *consecutive* period and we're adding new spices to get to 2 full years without repeats. Also, we always send new recipes to use spices for a totally new meal experience. I reviewed your order and see there was an 19 month gap from when we shipped the final shipment from the 6 month gift to the start of the new gift so that explains why your recipient has received some repeat spices. Your recipient will start to receive new spices as the overlap ends. All of our subscription customers receive the same thing each month so we can make this cost effective for everyone. So, subscriptions cannot be customized. If you prefer to choose exactly which spices the recipient receives, we sell all of them individually on our site and can offer that to your recipient for the remaining orders.
“I have just loved getting new and unusual spice combinations and the suggested recipes that come with them. It's opened a new world of international travel through food that's been really fun. Thanks!”
“I Love receiving my spice packages with matching recipes. So far, every one of them has been delicious. Being a big fan of food from around the Mediterranean basin, I am very familiar with the spices. This was a wonderful birthday gift!”
