September Flavour of the Month

Sweet & Sour, Cumberland Sausage & Perfect Pear – A new season, new flavours

Summer is slowly fading, the nights are drawing in, and autumn is fast approaching. However, September doesn’t have to mean bland menus or tired flavours.

At Bosse Interspice, we’re celebrating the start of the new season by highlighting exciting, versatile ingredients that will help refresh your autumn offerings.

Whether you’re creating cosy comfort food, innovative desserts, or refreshing beverages, our September flavours are here to inspire creativity in your kitchen.

Let’s jump headfirst into September’s flavours:

• Sweet & Sour Style Sauce
• Cumberland Sausage Mix
• Pear Flavourings

Sweet & Sour Style Sauce: A saucy classic

Let’s be honest, sweet & sour sauce evokes fond memories of childhood takeaways – dunking light crunchy chicken balls and crispy chips in to a bright, tangy sauce you simply can’t get enough of.

Our Sweet & Sour Style Sauce captures that nostalgic, irresistible taste with a balanced blend of sweetness and acidity, combining vibrant pineapple notes, zesty vinegar, and just the right touch of sugar.

Not only is this sauce perfect as a dip or classic glaze, but it also unlocks endless culinary opportunities for chefs.

Ideal For:

• Classic stir-fries featuring chicken, pork, prawns, or crispy tofu
• Sticky glazes on pork ribs, chicken wings, or even roasted vegetables like cauliflower or aubergine
• Delicious dips for appetisers such as spring rolls, prawn crackers, gyozas, or chunky chips

Top Tip: For a gourmet twist on a crowd favourite, mix our Sweet & Sour Style Sauce with pulled pork, slow-cooking it until tender. The result is a sweet-sticky, tangy dish sure to delight your diners.

Cumberland Sausage Mix: Comfort food at its finest

Is there anything better than Toad in the Hole with lashings of thick gravy? Nope…we didn’t think so!

Our Cumberland Sausage Mix blends cracked black pepper, aromatic herbs, and warming spices to produce sausages bursting with rich, savoury flavour.

This versatile blend effortlessly sings classic British recipes and inspires innovative twists on traditional sausage dishes.

Perfect For:

• Hearty breakfasts or mixed grill platters with eggs, bacon, and mushrooms
• Homemade sausage rolls, pies, or meatballs with herb-infused flavour
• Comforting casseroles, stews, or one-pan autumnal traybakes with seasonal vegetables

Top Tip: Clinging on to summer? Up your Cumberland sausage game by forming them into burger patties and grilling them to perfection on the grill. Serve in toasted brioche buns topped with caramelised onion chutney, rocket, and melting mature cheddar – a mouthwatering autumn favourite guaranteed to satisfy.

Pear Flavourings: Subtle, sophisticated, and versatile

Pear is often overlooked in favour of flashier fruits, but this humble ingredient is a star in its own right.

Available in Bakery, Buttercream, Milk-Based, and Water-Soluble options, our Pear flavourings bring subtle sweetness, floral aromas, and elegant sophistication to various culinary creations.

From bakery delights and creamy desserts to refreshing drinks, pear flavour is incredibly versatile and absolutely delicious.

Available In:

• Buttercream Flavours

Perfect for light, dreamy frostings with a delicate fruity twist, ideal for cupcakes and celebration cakes.

• Flavours for Bakery

Delicious in sponges, muffins, pastries, and patisserie creations, lending subtle sweetness without overpowering other flavours.

• Milk-Based Flavours

Ideal for luxurious pear gelatos, creamy panna cottas, custards, milkshakes, or comforting flavoured lattes.

• Water-Soluble Flavours

Brilliant for cocktails, mocktails, soft drinks, sparkling beverages, and sophisticated syrups.

Perfect Pairings Include:

• Almond, vanilla, cinnamon, or caramel notes, adding depth and complexity to desserts.
• Creamy buttercream or cream cheese frosting, bringing fruity elegance to layer cakes or cupcakes.
• Sparkling beverages like prosecco or soda water create sophisticated, elegant refreshments ideal for special occasions or everyday indulgences.

Top Tip: Elevate your dessert game with Pear Prosecco Jelly – mix pear flavouring with chilled prosecco and gelatine, then allow to set. This elegant, sparkling dessert is a showstopper for autumn menus.
