Golden Cayenne pepper plants add variety and beauty to your garden or backward, growing up to 3 ft. tall and boasting pods with attractive shapes and colors. When compared to the Red Cayenne pepper, the golden Cayenne pepper has smoother skin and fewer wrinkles, has hotter heat, and grows longer (about 4-6 inches long).
The Golden Cayenne’s flavor profile is a sweeter, tart, smoky flavor with intense, strong heat. If you wait until the pepper matures fully, you'll get the full, unforgettable heat! These peppers are great to use for Creole, Cajun, and Southern cooking and can be roasted, grilled, and used in hot sauces, jam, jellies, and salsas.
