Baharat and allspice are not the same. Allspice is a berry, and the name all spice does not imply a mixture of spices. Allspice berries are usually ground into a powder and commonly used in Middle Eastern recipes. Baharat, on the other hand, is a Middle Eastern spice blend tha contains allspice along with other spices including cloves, cardamom, black peppercorns, and cinnamon.
