“Lemon Pepper that finally tastes like lemon!”
I’ve bought a lot of lemon pepper seasonings and they usually taste fake or too salty. Gulf Island Lemon Pepper actually smells like fresh lemon peel and cracked pepper — it’s bright and fresh and makes fish taste like a chef made it.
“The Coffee Chili Cocoa Rub blew my mind.”
I used it on a ribeye we grilled over the weekend, and it was absolutely unreal. Deep, smoky flavour with a hint of cocoa and just the right kick of chili. Honestly, it tasted like something out of a high-end steakhouse. I’ve since tried it on grilled mushrooms and even roasted sweet potatoes — amazing every time.
“It will turn out delicious!”
Woodfire Spices are blended so intuitively you can trust however you use them, it’s going to turn out delicious! Our whole family loves a Woodfire Spice inspired dinner time!
“A game changer for weeknight meals.”
I don’t have a lot of time to cook, but a quick sprinkle of Woodfire Spice turns a boring chicken breast into something delicious. Dinner done. Stress gone.
“Amazing for so many dishes and so easy to add into recipes”
Alder Smoked Salt – this quickly became one of my all time favourites, it adds an amazing flavour to so many dishes, even if you are just frying up some mushrooms!
Gaviola Garlic & Herb Seasoning – with garlic and herb being one of my favourite flavours to mix, in the Gaviola it is already done for you and its done to perfection!
Maple Sugar – for anyone with a sweet tooth this will blow you away. It takes sugar and improves it, it is amazing for so many desserts!
“I love the Woodfire Spice Blends!’
Especially the Rain Coast Wild Mushroom Spice. I fry up some mushrooms & add this spice and it makes the perfect burger topping!
Also the Island Spice Blend is my favourite way to jazz up summer veggies: a drizzle of olive oil, some Island Spice blend and a few minutes in the grill pan on the bbq and you’ve got a great veggie dish!
“Restaurant-quality flavour in my own kitchen!”
Woodfire Spice blends have totally changed the way I cook at home. Every blend is perfectly balanced – I feel like I’m cheating by how easy it is to make amazing meals now. The Pacific Cioppino Blend is a family favourite!
“You can taste the chef’s experience.”
These aren’t your average spice mixes. Every blend tastes like it’s been crafted by someone who knows food inside and out. Because it has!
You can really tell these were created by a chef with decades of experience.

Gabriola’s Woodfire spices are awesome, delicious and distinctive and zizz up our everyday meals.

“Take a whole range of meals on to a different level.”
I have a range of Wood Fire spices to hand that can be used to take a whole range of meals on to a different level. Could be a small pinch that’s perfect in soup, or coated over salmon skin, or seasoning for roast potatoes. Even sprinkle on your morning eggs! All are delicious.

These spice combinations are incredible. Fresh and well balanced. The salmon spice is my favourite. Highly recommend these products. They are every foodie’s dream.

Your Spices are fab (we all know) but I add them to food when I can’t be bothered to make an effort. I like that a chef has let us chef too.

I used the Island Spice Blend at a family dinner and everyone asked me what my secret was. The only secret? Woodfire Spices. I’m hooked.

“Simple but perfect and essential!”
“I live in the UK and was lucky enough to be brought some of these spices by Sharon Hooton herself and they are incredible ! I only wish I lived a little closer then I could try the whole range of WoodfireSpice.Ca. We love your Alder Smoked Salt and have been using it for years. It’s especially wonderful on oven roasted vegetables, and the perfect addition to avocado toast. Simple but perfect and essential!

I’ve used it on chicken, fish, roasted potatoes — even sprinkled it on grilled asparagus. It totally adds sunshine to everything.Bright, zesty, and so versatile. Totally obsessed!

“Take’s meals to the next level.”
Woodfire Spices have taken my home-cooked meals to the next level! I appreciate simple quality on my plate with locally sourced ingredients, however life is busy and it’s all too easy to fall into the trap of pre-made and processed
foods.
“What an amazing collection of spice blends.”
They not only make a big difference to your meals but they look great too! I have not tried them all but so far three of my favourites are the All Year Long Apple Pie Spice, the Smoked Rosemary Seasoning Salt and the Maple Sugar.
“Rain Coast Wild Mushroom is like fall in a jar.”
It’s earthy, aromatic, and takes any creamy pasta or risotto to a whole new level. My kitchen smells like a five-star restaurant when I use it.
“These are all wonderful!!!”
I keep going back for more & passing them on to friends…..sssshhh they’re in their stockings!!

“Love to add a bit of spice to our lives!”
We love to add a bit of spice to our lives especially if it’s the Coffee, Chili Cocoa Rub added to our meat balls. Or Gulf Island Lemon Pepper added to our pork/chicken, and salmon can no longer be served in our house without a blast of Salish Sea Salmon Spice.

Tossed with pasta, rubbed on chicken, stirred into soups — it’s become my kitchen essential.
“The Pacific Cioppino Spice made my seafood stew unforgettable.”
I bought this blend specifically for a seafood dinner I was making for friends — mussels, clams, halibut, prawns — and it brought everything together in the most incredible way. The flavour is so layered and aromatic, and it smelled like a coastal Italian kitchen while it simmered. Everyone asked for the recipe.

I gave a trio of blends to a foodie friend and they were blown away. Beautiful presentation and serious flavour. Win-win.

I love that these spices come from a working restaurant. It’s like bringing part of the Woodfire experience home with me.
“The Rain Coast Wild Mushroom is my new secret ingredient.”
I add it to soups, gravies, pasta sauces — even scrambled eggs. It turns regular dishes into something people think I slaved over. I love that deep, earthy flavour, it’s hard to describe but makes everything taste richer.
“Island Spice is my go-to for just about everything.”
This blend lives on my kitchen counter now. I use it in soups, on roasted vegetables, grilled chicken, in scrambled eggs. I also sprinkled some on cheese on toast and tuna melts as recommened and it is delicious! It’s warm and savoury with a little something extra I can’t quite put my finger on… but I don’t need to. It just works.

I’ve bought a lot of lemon pepper seasonings and they usually taste fake or too salty. Gulf Island Lemon Pepper actually smells like fresh lemon peel and cracked pepper — it’s bright and fresh and makes fish taste like a chef made it.
