Paprika, California Sweet

Our California paprika comes from a hybrid pepper indigenous to California. This paprika comes from drying, grinding and sifting these peppers through a variety of screens until reduced to a deep, dark red powder. No one pepper is used to make paprika; it is made from a number of different red peppers.

If a food item is coloured red, orange or reddish brown and the label lists ‘Natural Colour’, it is likely paprika.

Not readily available in the common supermarket, it is widely used in the commercial food industry to enhance or color products and food dishes equally. Try using California paprika when making barbecue rubs, add it to chili or chili powders, use it as a garnish or add it anywhere a deep rich red color is desired.

You will receive the product in plastic, sealable bags that will be labeled with the product name, uses, and ingredients if applicable. The bags meet FDA requirements for food applications. They are 100% recyclable and can be put in with all other plastics recycled at home.

Spain was the first country to dry and grind peppers into pimentón, or paprika.


“I ordered some spices online from you guys and just wanted to thank you. Everything was so nice and neatly packaged. The gift set I purchased for Mother's Day was lovely with not a scratch or a dent anywhere in the cardboard.”
