Pain d'Épices is a blend of spices created to flavor cakes, cookies, breads, baked breads, puddings and more. It originated in the town of Colmar, the capital of Alsace, also known as the capital of Alsatian wine production. The origins of this sweet mixture are lost in the mists of time. Greeks and Romans used to make sweet breads flavored with honey, but the oldest ancestor of Pain d'Épices as we know it today is found in a honey bread flavored with herbs and used as a ration by the Chinese army around 1100 AD.
