I launched my side hustle in October 2024. At that time My Epicurean Kitchen offered former Epicure ambassadors a means of liquidating their personal inventory of products - usually after they ceased being a direct sales representative - and selling current, discontinued, and so-called vaulted products to Canadian and American fans of the company.
Then, in January 2025, Vancouver Island-based Epicure filed for bankruptcy, overnight and unexpectedly. There was an even greater need to help former ambassadors clear out their stock, and to help those in need of the products that met their gluten-free, vegan, kosher or halal dietary needs.
My "side hustle" became a small business almost overnight.
When Epicure returned, under new management and with a new business model, in September 2025, I became an affiliate and began offering the relaunched products alongside the "legacy" products I now secure largely from liquidation outlets and auctions.
So, you can buy direct from Epicure and get the shipping benefits and free products. And you can buy the relaunched products along with the Epicure legacy products, as well as excellent high-quality spices and blends from A Spice Affair and Tilly's Galley, and gluten-free baking mixes from The Spice Age.
And let's not forget my favourite Canadian sea salt producer: Vancouver Island Sea Salt Company, out of Black Creek, B.C.
Update: September 2026
Epicure continues to relaunch popular products ... Epicure Legacy products are becoming harder and harder to source ... A Spice Affair is also bringing some exciting new blends to market and is gradually shifting its packaging from jars to pouches. Subscribers to my emails receive regular updates on product launches and special promotions.
