Herb Labels
The difference between spices and herbs is the source or part of the plant where they were taken from. Again, spices are taken from the seed, bar, fruit, and roots of a plant. On the other hand, herbs are from the flowers and leaves of plants. However, both of them may be used for garnishing, flavoring, and medicinal purposes.
Since they can be used for the same functions, you may also use our jar labels not only for spices but also for the herbs that can be found in your kitchen.
