Cayenne Chilli Powder

Cayenne Chilli Powder is a food-grade natural extract made from high-quality cayenne peppers grown in the La Vera region of Spain. It is a widely used ingredient in both boilies and seed preparation, offering well-known benefits. It gives bait a spicy aroma and taste while also serving as a rich source of vitamins and minerals.

The version offered by Baitshop Romania contains no less than 30,000 SHU (Scoville Heat Units), indicating a high concentration of capsaicin, the active compound responsible for its heat. However, this is not relevant for taste, as carp, unlike humans, lack the receptor that detects capsaicin. The real advantage of including this active substance in boilies lies in its thermogenic effect, which raises body temperature after consumption, thereby accelerating metabolism and digestion. This makes chilli powder even more effective in cold seasons, when fish body temperature is significantly lower.
