There’s something deeply satisfying about discovering food that feeds more than just the stomach—Splendor Garden is exactly that kind of experience. Founded in 2012, this Canadian brand (under the Canadian Organic Spice & Herb Co.) has carved a delicious niche in the organic, health-minded food world. Their lineup—organic herbs and spices, seasoning blends, gluten-free oats, plant-based soup mixes, even coating mixes for frying—promises flavour uplifted by integrity. https://splendorgarden.com/
What is unique about Splendor Garden isn’t just the certification or the packaging (though those are superb)—it’s the founder’s journey. Colleen Haussecker started the company after a life-changing battle with breast cancer. During and after treatment, she sought ways to eat more healthfully—not by piling on salt, sugar, or fat, but by layering in flavour via herbs, spices, and whole organic ingredients. The more she looked, the more she realized similar options were scarce. Intent on both wellness and taste, she set out to create a full organic line of spices, herbs, and seasoning blends so flavourful you don’t need to lean on unhealthy flavour boosters. https://splendorgarden.com/pages/the-splendor-garden-story
Colleen also has a soft spot for what’s charmingly familial: she recalls her grandmother’s spice cupboard, with handwritten labels taped onto tins and bottles. From that memory came a thoughtful detail: Splendor Garden spice bags include re-adhesive labels so you can refill your own jars and keep a clean, organized kitchen. It’s a small touch, but one that speaks volumes about the ethos of the brand. https://splendorgarden.com/collections/all

So how do the products deliver? First, you notice the aroma: potent, fragrant, clear. When cooking with their herbs or seasoning blends, a little goes a long way—which feels just right given their emphasis on quality. Their gluten-free oats and coating mixes reflect the same care: well-sourced, well-processed, and with enough flavour depth to make healthy eating feel indulgent rather than medicinal.
If you care about flavour and wellness, Splendor Garden is a rare win. It’s not just about organic credentials; it’s about taste, transparency, and heart. Colleen Haussecker’s vision turns into something you can sprinkle, stir, or simmer—and each bite reminds you that food can heal, nourish, and delight.
