Fonsies Insane Hot Sauce
What started with growing a few pepper plants in 2016 has grown into a one-man business in extremely hot products based on the famous Carolina Reaper.
The peppers are grown by us in Halle-Booienhoven, a sub-municipality of Zoutleeuw. They are grown in a greenhouse and processed into our current range. ​
Our products are named after our son Fons and our daughter Louise.
