About Capsicum-based spice

Capsicum-based spice is a seasoning made from one or more peppers in the Capsicum group. The category may include different pepper types and preparations; the record does not identify a specific species, blend, or added ingredient.

It is commonly used to add pepper flavour and, depending on the source, pungency or colour. It may be dried, crushed, or powdered, but the exact form and intensity cannot be determined from this label alone.
