Wattleseed and Wattleseed extract
Australia’s best Wattleseed is produced by Vic Cherikoff who invented the product back in 1984 by over-roasting seeds once only eaten by Australian Aborigines. Wattleseed is roasted in a similar way to coffee but with a particular temperature profile, then specially ground to produce a highly versatile and nutritious flavouring. We describe Wattleseed as having a flavour combination of coffee, chocolate and hazelnut (filbert).
Available as ground Wattleseed or as a Wattleseed Extract (Wattleseed Essence), both can be used in sauces, desserts (particularly ice cream and pavlova), rubs and coatings or as a coffee substitute, although there are hundreds of ways to use Wattleseed. For something different, try Wattleseed extract added to whipped cream to give it a pale brown colour and top your coffee with some.
