FAQs and frequently asked questions about plant based spices at STAY SPICED !
When does autumn begin?
Meteorologically, autumn begins on September 1st and ends on November 30th. The calendar autumn starts with the equinox at the end of September and lasts until shortly before Christmas.
Which foods are in season in autumn?
In autumn, ingredients such as pumpkin, mushrooms, apples, pears, beetroot, cabbage, root vegetables, chestnuts, and game are in season. Many of these ingredients are ideal for hearty, warming dishes and sweet autumn recipes.
Are all STAY SPICED ! products plant based?
Almost all – yes!
Nearly the entire STAY SPICED ! range is vegan. The only exceptions are the blends "Rindssuppe" (beef soup) and "Hühnersuppe" (chicken soup), as they contain animal ingredients.
All other products are 100% plant-based – with no hidden additives, which we consciously avoid in all of our spice blends.

Super easy: Most of our spices are vegan by default – and we label any exceptions transparently.

Even better: Our ingredient lists are clear and straightforward – no unnecessary extras.
Which spices go especially well with plant based cooking?

Are spices actually healthy?
Yes, spices aren't just flavor enhancers—they're also true powerhouses! Our ancestors have known this for centuries. Many spices, such as turmeric, ginger, garlic, and cinnamon, contain secondary plant compounds and can therefore have beneficial effects. Of course, they're no substitute for a balanced diet—but they make healthy cooking even more delicious, versatile, and often easier to digest. In short: seasoning makes it better!
