Produced in the fertile foothills of the Mayan Mountains in Stann Creek Valley, Belize, Marie Sharp’s sauces are crafted using organically grown, hand-harvested ingredients. Each component is selected at peak ripeness and prepared with care to preserve its natural character.

The “Mild” Habanero Pepper Sauce features:

• Select red Belizean habanero peppers

• Hand-chopped carrots and white onions

• Freshly squeezed key lime juice
