Quatre Epices Buttermilk Loaves image

This recipe comes from my niece, Tanya Monyihan who has a catering business called "Everything But The Guest". The secret to the phenomenal taste of this loaf is the Quarte Spices, a french spice combination. "Quatre Epices" is a mix of white pepper, nutmeg, cloves, cinnamon and allspice(optional). You can find it in the store...
