Looking to spice up your morning? A new commercial for Schwartz Flavour Shots contains a beautiful display of exploding spice bags.

And, this is far from just an excuse to blow shit up, as the fireworks are played in slow-motion and synchronized to music — creating what Schwartz describes as a ‘Sonic Flavourscape.’

The mix of black peppercorns, cardamom, turmeric, paprika, cumin seeds, ginger, chilli and coriander also create a beautiful display of color and textures. Now, please watch this video of shit blowing up.

Spice Jars Designed Like Snow Globes

spice-jar-snow-globes

Qualy Design has come up with an ingenious way to contain and display your spices — by designing spice jars to look and function like snow globes. One object is placed in the center of the globe, needing only a spice added to help complete the scene.

Beside the obvious salt as snow, dried chili flakes gives us a taste of Fall under a bare tree, while ground coriander could create a small patch of desert for a camel. Available as a set of Four Seasons or Animal Parade.
