A lot of seed sellers carry the Aji Dulce's, there are 3 or 4 types, all of them mild. Check out the 3 links below.

This place sells live plants, 12 plant minimum, very reputable. On the left side menu, click the "species" button and select "Chinense". This will bring them up in alphabetical order:

Beth at Peppermania carries one or two types also:

And here are links and reviews to other stores:

It's not too late to plant seeds either. Good luck.

I bought seeds from Beth at Peppermania......OK flavor, but I want more heat

Valdo.....You've got mail

There are two seed vendors that I use that have the seeds. I have just ordered from Solana for the first time this year, so can't vouch for the germination. Seeds did come promptly though they are in Canada. My Aji Dulce seeds are from Tradewind and I used their seed last year with great results. Note that Solana does use cachucha as another name for Aji Dulce.

Mary.......Welcome to the forum

Aji means chili pepper.....Dulce means mild

Cachucha means Cap/Hat

"Cachucha is an Aji Dulce but not all Aji Dulce are Cachucha"

Cachucha is a Green Cap....Aji Dulce #2 is a Red Cap......Aji Dulce Yellow is a YELLOW Cap

Aji Dulce de Panama is a short Red chili

VALDO.....did you receive your seeds yet ?

I know this is a little late, but I have a true Aji Cachucha plant, which is producing for the 2nd year in a row. It was given to me by a friend who sprouted them from seed from her Grandmothers plant from Cuba. I live in Nashville, TN (of all places) and haven't found anyone around here that has ever heard of them, much less has an interest in them. Im suprised it has lasted this long (I bring it in during the winter) and I moved to a large pot this year early and it really grew larger, I am currently getting 6-8 peppers every few days. Would be more than happy to share Seeds or Peppers with anyone who may be interested.

Hi pshealy69! I would be interested in some seeds, peppers or both :). I live in Northern California and although we have a large Latin community, I still find it difficult to find Aji dulce peppers. Please contact me direct. mmontcrieffe@yahoo.com. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Thanks, Mirna

Hi pshealy69! I live in the DC area and would love some seeds or peppers! I can't find aji dulce anywhere around here!

By the way, pshealy69! my email address is monica.d.vidal@gmail.com. Thanks.

Thanks, Monica. Its a little late in the season here, so I've recently brought my plant in for the winter. I'm trying a grow light to see If I can at least get one more batch before winter, but It may be till next season before I have some more. But, rest assured, I produce more than I can eat during the summer. I'll keep your address and remember to contact you when the time comes.

I fell in love with the Cachucha pepper after trying Cuban black beans back in Germany at my brother's home. His wife is Cuban. She puts the Cachucha peppers in almost everything! She grew few plants from Miami and South America and said none tasted like in Cuba. She found an Ebay seller called Pleasurevault and she says this is the real thing! I got my seeds from Pleasurevault, too and my plants already did have lots of peppers. . My sister-in law has her in a balcony all through the summer and indoors in the winter. I do the same. The peppers freeze very well and they taste as fresh after frozen.

Hi castlefrank can you please provide the link to this seller on eBay? I want to make sure I get authentic aji dulce this year!
