A Legacy Born from the Spice Route
Cape Town’s location at the heart of the historic Spice Route shaped South Africa’s bold, spice-driven food culture. From the 16th century onward, it became a melting pot of East and West – giving rise to the vibrant, aromatic cuisine that inspires Cape Herb & Spice today.
From fragrant Cape Malay curries to flavour-packed biltong, South African cooking celebrates bold, global influences. Cape Herb & Spice honours this rich culinary heritage with every product – celebrating spice as a way of life.
Founded by a business science graduate with a deep love for food and design, Cape Herb & Spice began as a small passion project. With early challenges sourcing rare ingredients like pink peppercorns and vanilla pods, the mission was clear: bring exotic, premium flavours to everyday kitchens.
Today, that mission thrives globally.
Every blend, rub, shaker and grinder begins with the world’s finest herbs and spices — ethically sourced, non-GMO, and Halaal-certified. From farm to factory, Cape Herb & Spice ensures traceability, quality, and integrity in every step.
Exceptional ingredients. Global growers. Total transparency.
Whether you’re a professional chef or just starting your culinary journey, Cape Herb & Spice offers a range of globally inspired, vegan-friendly products – all free from preservatives and MSG.
