A Staple of Heat and Flavor
Cayenne pepper produces a vibrant, fiery paste or purée known for its sharp, clean heat and bold red color. With a typical Scoville range of 30,000 to 50,000 SHU, cayenne paste delivers reliable spiciness that works across global cuisines, from sauces and marinades to dips, spreads, and spicy bases.
In paste or purée form, its heat disperses smoothly, offering consistent pungency and strong visual appeal. Our cayenne pastes and purées are available in clean-label formats to meet diverse product development needs.
