What's In The Box?

Trinidad Scorpion Pepper Sauce


A blend of Trinidad Scorpion Peppers, pimento peppers and herbs, pickled in vinegar. The Trinidad Moruga Scorpion pepper was voted the world's hottest pepper in 2012, and is currently ranked at number 2. It can be used as a condiment for any dish, much like ketchup…if you can handle the heat! It’s extremely hot so use sparingly for the pepper sauce amateur.

Pepper Jelly


An assortment of West Indian peppers in a thick sweet jelly.  Superb with roasted meats and poultry.  Excellent on crackers, in sandwiches and with cream cheese.

Spicy Whole Channa


Salted fried chickpeas spiced with pepper. It was a popular movie theater snack in Trinidad & Tobago back in the 1950s and 60s and is still a favorite today.

Preserved Fruit


Trinbagonian Chinese preserved snacks, from the Chinese heritage of Trinidad & Tobago, it is a method of preserving fruit by drying the fruit then adding spices, salt, pepper and food coloring. Some commonly preserved fruit include mangoes, plums, cherries, pommecythere (golden apple) and prunes.

Jerk Seasoning


Jerk is a style of cooking native to Jamaica, in which meat is dry-rubbed or wet marinated with a hot spice mixture called Jamaican jerk spice. Developed by escaped enslaved Africans on the island, the traditional method of jerk involved slow cooking the meat over allspice wood.

Duck/Goat Curry Powder

A specially crafted masala blend makes this perfect for cooking game meats like Duck and Goat which require a much stronger curry with heightened levels of chili, garam masala, coriander, fenugreek, and much more.
