Le Pain d'Épices au Thé Wedding Impérial is an artisanal spiced loaf of about 440 g, flavoured with Wedding Impérial tea. Its rye crumb is soft, sprinkled with pearl sugar, and the tea gives it chocolatey and caramelised flavours.

What does it contain?

• Rye flour and wheat starch: it contains gluten.
• Glucose, fructose, candied sugar and caramel.
• Tea, cinnamon and yeast.
• It may contain traces of nuts.

How should you serve it?

Slice it and lightly toast it, then serve it plain, buttered or spread with tea jelly. It accompanies teatime and has its place on autumn and winter tables.

Which tea goes with it?

The most natural choice is the tea that flavours it: the Wedding Imperial, a blend of black teas with golden Assam tips, with notes of chocolate and caramel. Allow 2.5 g for 200 ml of water at 95 °C and 5 minutes of infusion. Spiced loaves also pair well with a chai: the page for Chaï-Chandernagor, a black tea with spices, lists the spiced loaf among its accompaniments.
