Have all your spices on hand and within reach for cooking and baking. Your spices will be fresh and your cabinets will organized.
It’s October. You’ve been asked to bake your luscious pumpkin bread for the school fundraising event. Before you get started you dig through the cabinet housing all of your spices and realize you don’t have the pumpkin pie spice that you thought you did. Relieved that you haven’t wasted time starting to mix all the ingredients together yet, you make a run for the grocery store to pick up the pumpkin pie spice. Your gratitude suddenly turns over when you get home and you see that when you dumped out a bunch of the spices on the kitchen counter in an attempt to find the pumpkin pie spice – thinking it was somewhere in the back of the cabinet- you seemed to have missed one container of spice that had rolled back behind the dish rack. It’s the container of pumpkin pie spice that you bought a couple of weeks ago. Yes, you had it all along.
You just wasted how much time over one small container of pumpkin pie spice? You could have been done with it by now, the delicious smells of cinnamon, allspice, and pumpkin wafting through your house. You curse your kitchen cabinets under your breath as you get the mixer out of another cabinet.
That scene does not have to happen if you have a spice storage system – find the spices you need quickly, and avoid wasting money on duplicate purchases - choose the solution that fits you best and always know what you have on hand.
There are a couple of things that you should know about spices first, before selecting your spice storage system. It is advisable to store spices away from sunlight or direct light. The darker the location, the better. Sunlight will break down the flavor and color of your spices, so limiting the exposure of your spices to sunlight is a good idea. We recommend keeping your spices away from moisture and a heat source as well. Keep your spices away from the stove and dishwasher. Moisture causes clumping and intense heat can mar the flavor or color of the spices. So, the ideal storage location should be dark, dry, and cool.
We offer spice racks that fit right into your kitchen drawers. With only one layer of spices to quickly look over, you will be able to spot that pumpkin pie spice immediately, saving yourself time, money, and frustration. Plus, your spices can be kept in a drawer away from the dishwasher or the stove away from moisture and heat. The perfect arrangement.
If you would prefer not to store your spices in a drawer, we still have the perfect storage solution for you! Why not try one of our lazy susan turntables to keep your spices on? Keep it in a cabinet that is eye level and give it a spin the next time you are baking pumpkin bread. It will also insure that you won’t be buying duplicate spices. Or try a tiered step stool like organizer. Each row further back on this organizer is elevated – like bleachers- so you can quickly find just what you need. No spice is going to be left behind with this organizer. You won’t have to empty your whole spice rack to find what you need either.
If you would like to get your spices hanging somewhere and not taking up cabinet floor space at all, we can help you with that as well. Try one of our wall mounted spice racks. Hang it on the back of a pantry door. This will limit the amount of sunlight exposure to your spices and whenever you need a spice, you can open your pantry door, give a quick look over, and grab what you need.
