Hazelnut Spread
A luscious, velvety spread made from roasted hazelnuts, sweetened with a touch of sugar, and often enriched with a hint of cocoa for a rich, chocolatey undertone.
Habanero Peppers
Habanero peppers are small, lantern-shaped chili peppers renowned for their intense heat and fruity flavor. Originating in the Amazon region of South America, they have become a staple in many Caribbean and Mexican cuisines. Their flavor profile is complex, offering a balance of fiery heat with notes of citrus and tropical fruit. The texture of habaneros is thin-walled and somewhat brittle, giving them a satisfying crunch when eaten raw. In cooking, habaneros are versatile; their heat mellows when roasted or cooked, making them suitable for salsas, hot sauces, and marinades. They add a vibrant kick to dishes while contributing a unique depth of flavor.
Imitation Crab Sticks
