The moment you open the cap you get a whiff of awesome! Once I removed the cap the Gingerbread scent took me by surprise. I wasn't expecting it to be that strong of a scent, but I really enjoyed that. The syrups have a nice consistency, and aren't thick and gooey. So it's easy to add them to drinks and other liquids.
One of the first things I tried was adding some to my coffee. YUMMY! I normally use flavored coffee creamers, but I liked this a lot. It added enough of the Gingerbread flavor to the coffee and I didn't need to add a lot of the syrup.
So far I have used the syrups in coffee, tea, hot chocolate, and in cocktails. The Hazelnut Syrup is fantastic with hot chocolate and whipped cream. I am still experimenting using them in recipes, but they blend nicely when baking. They add flavor to pancakes, and I am curious to see how they would work in other baked goods. For the holidays I really want to try and make some Gingerbread Pizzelles.
I enjoyed my experience with the Torani Syrups, and would definitely try the other flavors. They are great for entertaining and come in handy when you want to add extra flavors to bland foods.
