Warning -

Don't miss that they're HABANERO mango rum truffles. There have people who didn't check the "cheat sheet" I send with the candies and let's just say they were a bit surprised.

What is HABANERO?

[Drac]

It's a surprise!!!!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Habanero

The habanero chili (Capsicum chinense) (pronounced /ˌhɑːbəˈnɛəroʊ/; Spanish: [aβaˈneɾo]) is one of the most intensely spicy species of chili peppers of the Capsicum genus. It is sometimes spelled habañero—the diacritical mark being added as a hypercorrection.[1] Unripe habaneros are green, and they color as they mature. Common colors are orange and red, but white, brown, and pink are also seen. Typically a ripe habanero is 2–6 centimetres (0.79–2.4 in) long. Habanero chili peppers are rated 100,000–350,000 on the Scoville scale.The habanero chili (Capsicum chinense) (pronounced /ˌhɑːbəˈnɛəroʊ/; Spanish: [aβaˈneɾo]) is one of the most intensely spicy species of chili peppers of the Capsicum genus.

To give you an idea jalapenos are in the 2500-8000 range.

Thanks for that, it would be a bit of a surprise, nice though.

Habaneros have a lovely floral flavour, which you get to enjoy for a few seconds before the top of your head blows off.

I find that growing them in British Columbia is possible, if they have a good head start before planting out. They won't be quite as thermonuclear as the ones grown in hot desert areas, but they'll still be tasty.

And they'll make your head sweat and the wax melt out of your ears. Very good in curries, they are.
