The best-selling jar in our online shop. Add them to your favourite dishes, from tacos and sandwiches to omelettes and pizzas. They'll give you a perfect blend of sweetness and heat. Our unique preparation method involves slow-cooking fresh jalapeños in a sweet, tangy syrup until they're perfectly candied.

Want it spreadable instead? Try the relish version.

Handmade on Salt Spring Island

Every batch uses the freshest jalapeños and the best ingredients. This also means a natural variation in heat level from making it in small batches. Still, you should always find the heat enjoyable, not overpowering.

TASTE PROFILE

A vibrant blend of spicy and sweet, balanced to elevate what you're eating it with. Thanks to the candying process, you'll get that crisp texture of fresh jalapeños while the initial zest moves to a warm sweetness.

Small batches of fresh peppers mean the heat level can vary from batch to batch. Still, you should always find the heat enjoyable, not overpowering.
