Has anyone ever heard of Pastry Spice?

Judging from this link u/MercuryCrest provided, pastry spice is similar to what's called koekkruiden or speculaaskruiden in Dutch which is a blend of cinamon, nutmeg, cloves and other spices such as mace, ginger, cardamom, and white pepper. The ratio of these spices varies a bit from one recipe to the other, but the version I use contains cinamon, ground cloves, nutmeg, mace, ginger powder and ground cardamom in a ratio of 20:5:5:4:2:1.

This link has some good information. I'm still not sure, but apparently it was an old combination of select spices:

I have heard of her, but I understand she was kicked out of the band just before they finalized their recording contract.

It was used as a sort of "seasoned cinnamon", used how Americans might now use pumpkin pie spice in various dishes. It's used to make stuff like Dutch speculaas. Here is a recipe that includes instructions. Here is an Indian version that contains black pepper, for a little extra warmth.

what did you use them for? I'm dutch and if they are the same as speculaaskruiden as ericula said then I can only use them to make a standard dutch cookie called kruidnoten which we only eat once a year. I would love to have more use for it.

Penzey's has a "Baking Spice" and a "Cake Spice". They both appear to be a cinnamon based blend.
