Frequently Asked Questions
How does black rice taste compared with white rice?
Black rice has a fuller, slightly nutty and earthy flavour. Its cooked texture is generally firmer and more substantial than ordinary white rice.
Why does black rice turn purple when cooked?
The naturally dark bran layer releases colour during cooking, giving the grains and cooking liquid a deep purple-black appearance.
Is this black rice gluten-free?
Rice is naturally gluten-free. However, this product is processed in a facility that also handles wheat and may contain traces, so customers avoiding gluten should consider the cross-contact statement.

from 959 reviewsGreat stuff. Easy to use and add to meals
Excellent product. Postage was quick. Thank you.
Great flavour
The most delicious raisins and so much softer and sweeter than supermarket brands
Easy to use website and prompt delivery of order
So soft and sweet! Delighted to have found sun dried fruit that doesn’t contain preservatives and chemicals
Great - exactly what I wanted
Delicious! The moment you open the package, all you smell is chocolate! It is not bitter like supermarket brands. Very nice, definitely will buy again!
All the lovely spices... it's so difficult to decide what to buy. What I have bought so far has outstanding quality. Shipping is very fast. I am so glad I found this shop. Very happy customer here.
Oh that vanilla! I have not used it in baking yet but I used it in my coffee and hot chocolate. Just a pinch is enough to give your drink that vanilla taste. Very nice and reasonably priced.
Great service, quality product. Highly recommended.
Life without spices is just blah. I get my fix here at SpiceBloom. They have the best. Fresh and in small enough amounts so they won't go stale before being used up. The Ceylon cinnamon is one fine example. I use it for tea and hot chocolate. When the hot water hits the cup with the spice, it releases a puff of aroma that surrounds and totally delights you.
Prompt service and everything is superbly packaged
Love this - always fresh and makes the best muesli
Very satisfied with my purchase, arrived quickly.
