February 2026 - Baker's Pantry
This month’s Baker’s Pantry Box is all about elevated sweetness—ingredients that make everyday baking feel a little more special (and a lot more delicious). Think: craveable chocolate, floral rose, caramel-like coconut sugar, creamy tahini, and a bright springy jam you’ll want on everything.
Baking Fun Facts
Muffin tins weren’t originally designed for muffins. They were first used for making popover-style cakes—then muffins stole the spotlight.
TCHO — Sweet & Sassy 66% Bittersweet Baking Chocolate
Sweet & Sassy 66% is the best of TCHO’s cacao blends—deep, bittersweet dark chocolate with notes of dried fruit and a nutty finish. A little sweet, a little sassy… and absolutely perfect for your pantry.
Try it in:
- brownies, cookies, and ganache
- shaved on top of warm pastries
- “just one piece” straight from the bag (we won’t tell)
Burlap & Barrel — Damask Rose Petals (Powder)
This beautiful pink rose petal powder is made from hand-picked, slowly dried Damask roses—grown on the same farms that supply Dr. Bronner’s soaps. It’s aromatic, naturally floral, and surprisingly versatile.
Baking + kitchen tips:
- Make a quick rose simple syrup
- Add to frosting, puddings, and whipped cream
- Use as a 1:1 swap for rosewater
- Try it as a sub for vanilla powder in sweet recipes
Burlap & Barrel — Powdered Coconut Sugar
Toasty, tropical, and warmly sweet—this coconut sugar is made from coconut palm nectar grown by smallholder farms on the island of Java. The nectar is collected twice daily, boiled down until dark and sticky, then cooled and crushed into cakes before being finely ground into a powder.
Use it:
- as a swap for powdered cane sugar in baking
- in coffee, tea, or oatmeal for a deeper sweetness
- in savory Southeast Asian dishes for warm, complex balance
Wise Goat Organics — Organic Sesame Tahini Seed Butter
Creamy, nutrient-dense, and made with care—Wise Goat Organics Tahini is a true pantry staple. It’s certified organic, packaged in glass, and handcrafted in their certified farm kitchen in Hollister, California using ingredients sourced from neighborhood farmers focused on quality and sustainability.
Perfect for:
- tahini cookies + sesame blondies
- dressings and sauces (hello, lemon tahini)
- swirling into brownie batter for a rich, nutty twist
Eat This Yum — Strawberry Lemon Lavender Preserve (Mini Jar)
A small-batch seasonal jam made with local strawberries—bright, fruity, and finished with subtle citrus and a gentle hint of lavender. It’s spring in a spoon, and it’s a favorite for Mother’s Day, Easter, and all things brunch.
Spread it on:
- toast, biscuits, croissants
- cheese boards and charcuterie
- yogurt, oatmeal, or thumbprint cookies
