Bulk Cayenne Powder

Cayenne originates from the dried and ground fruits of the Capsicum annuum pepper. Indigenous to Central and South America, cayenne peppers were introduced to Europe by sailors in the fifteenth century, forever expanding their impact.

The process of making cayenne powder involves harvesting ripe cayenne peppers, drying them, and then grinding them into a fine powder. Packed with capsaicin, cayenne powder is known to benefit the metabolism, aid digestion, and even provide pain relief.
