Orange Habanero Powder

From the freshest hand-picked habanero, chile peppers available in Eastern Mexico come one of the hottest peppers in the world. Our ground Habanero Chile Powder makes a wonderful addition to any dish. 

It has a wonderful taste and aroma, sweet yet intensely spicy. Pair its tropical fruity taste with fresh mangoes, tomatoes, onions, and cilantro and the flavors meld wonderfully to give you one amazingly simple hot salsa. 

Mix a teaspoon into ranch dip and it becomes a dip everyone will love. Add a bit more for those friends and family who think they can handle the heat and watch them beg for a glass of milk just to soothe their pain. It is excellent on the grill as well, simply add a dash to chicken, steak, pork, and more.
