CareGrow Fine Preserves

Since we started growing chilli’s back in 2005, we have grown 45 different varieties from all over the world, including Barbados, Central Africa, Peru, Russia, Mexico and the Caribbean; not bad for a suburban back garden !

Relishes/Chutneys
The fruity relishes are great with cold meats and cheese; some, such as Apple and Garlic Chilli Jelly, are a very good accompaniment with a curry.  They are also good in a sandwich or with salads & BBQ’s.

Sauces
The sauces are either pepper based, fruit based or tomato based, and can be used for cooking, marinading or dipping.  Tomato Inferno is a great base for a Chilli Con Carne, whereas the hot pepper sauces, such as Devil's Heatwave and Red Devil are excellent for spicing up casseroles and soups.  You can also mix them with Greek Yoghurt or Creme Fraiche to make a lovely unusual dip or salad dressing.

We have recently added a range of sweet chilli sauces which are not only excellent for cooking but also rather good if used as mixers in drinks.

Our Chillies
We currently grow around 45 varieties from seeds purchased around the world, with many different types of pepper, including Habanero, Chiltepin and Birds Eye.  As such, there is a wide range of heat levels, from our mildest, Beetroot and Ginger to Devil’s Heatwave, which is not for the faint-hearted!

Jams & Marmalades
We have a range of delicious Jams, Marmalades to add to our range of products. As ever they are all hand made using only natural ingredients. Check them out using the links above or in the main menu list. Also, see our Gold Medal winners from The Great Taste Awards.

They're how hot ?
Our personal preference is for our sauces and relishes to be tasty and not too hot.  However, some people have requested that we make them hotter. Therefore we have added a range of Sauces and Relishes to appeal to those of you who like it hot.  However, if you are not sure, please feel free to ask to taste if you see us at one of the many markets we attend. For more information on which markets we attend and when please go to the Events page or look in the sidebar on the right.
