Capsicana Cooking Sauces and Pastes

Capsicana is a British food brand specializing in authentic Latin American flavors, particularly focusing on the diverse cuisines of Mexico, Brazil, and Peru. Founded by entrepreneur Ben Guy after his Extensive travels through Central and South America, the brand was built on the mission to bring genuine regional ingredients like the smoked Pimenton de la Vera and various dried chillies to the UK market. The products range from quick-use cooking sauces and spice pastes to retail kits designed for home cooks.

Since its inception, the brand has grown from a small market stall in Hitchin to a nationally recognized label found in major UK supermarkets. While the spirit of the brand is rooted in Latin American culinary traditions, the products are formulated and manufactured within the United Kingdom to ensure high-quality production standards and logistical efficiency. The company remains an independent British entity, continuing to innovate within the world food category by introducing consumers to less common regional pepper varieties and traditional cooking methods.
