Cancun Powder
Cancun powder is made by grinding this round-fruited pepper, also known in Italy as the purple cherry pepper for the color it takes on while ripening.
The Cancun Powder Plant
The source pepper, Capsicum annuum, grows on a small but sturdy plant about 50 centimeters tall, shaped like a bush with dark green oval leaves.
How to Sow Cancun Powder
Seeds for fruit production are started between March and April, transplanting after the last frosts in a sunny spot.
How to Grow Cancun Powder
The plant adapts well to container growing, borders or flower beds; it favors regular watering without waterlogging and plenty of direct light.
Tips for Cancun Powder
The round, smooth fruits, up to 2 cm in diameter, turn from dark green to purple, then to red or orange at full ripeness, usually reached between July and August.
Diseases and Pests of Cancun Powder
Waterlogging that favors root rot must be avoided; good drainage and airy positioning prevent the main issues.
Uses and Curiosities of Cancun Powder
Cancun powder has a low heat level, around 20,000 SHU, suited to those looking for a gentle touch of heat in sauces, seasonings and meat dishes.
Properties of Cancun Powder
Rich in capsaicin in moderate amounts and anthocyanins, responsible for the purple coloring at intermediate ripening stages.
