We don't provide any packaging, so you must bring your own container. If you know the exact weight you need, please select "by weight (g)" and enter the number of grams. Alternatively, you can choose to bring your container and simply "fill it up" or fill it "half full" etc. Since all containers vary in size, if you choose one of these options we'll weigh and price your order when you collect it. Your selection helps us estimate how much to bring with us.

health benefits
While extremely popular in both South American and a broad variety of Asian cooking, Cayenne pepper is also well used in both herbal remedies and over-the-counter medicines. Rich in red and orange colouring compounds (carotenoids), Cayenne peppers have strong antioxidant properties and are high in vitamin A and C. Cayenne has been shown to enhance metabolic rate and may increase fat burning in the body, while it has also been found to help control arthritic pain as part of a topical medication.
