Nutmeg and mace both come from the same tropical fruit: nutmeg is the hard inner seed, while mace is the lacy red covering that surrounds it, dried into golden-orange blades. Nutmeg has a warm, slightly sweet flavour good for baking, sauces, and spiced drinks, while mace is more delicate and often used in savoury dishes and pickles. We stock whole nutmeg (with and without shell), ground nutmeg powder, and whole mace.
