Why it's sweet:
A highly coveted spice in a hand-painted jar? What more could our favourite foodie ask for? Saffron is the world’s most expensive spice because it has to be carefully harvested by hand, but since a little goes a long way towards adding flavour and colour to countless dishes, it's worth it. This quality artisanal version is sure to impress even the most discerning home-chef – and the cute ceramic jar means no wrapping required.
