Welcome to Wiga Wagaa
A Fusion Of Flavours From Across The World.
Wiga Wagaa products are a culmination of my past eating experiences – in restaurants in the UK, and during my travels abroad to places like Mauritius, Ghana, Nigeria, Malaysia, Thailand, Morocco, Egypt, Spain & Portugal.
I enjoy eating a variety of foods and probably like yourself, the tastier the food the better. There are different ways of adding taste to food – it is either produced with the food during cooking, or you can add the taste in after cooking.
The second element to enjoying food is the sensation you feel during and after eating the food. By sensation I mean does the food have “life”? By “life” I mean does your body react in a pleasant way during that eating experience?
Will this be a one off experience or will I want to eat the food again and again, today and another day? It is for this enjoyable eating experience that we go back to the same restaurants time and time again.
I found that Scotch Bonnet Chillies hotness and aroma complimented what I was looking to achieve – so Scotch Bonnet Chillies are used in preparing Wiga Wagaa chilli oil, sauce and paste. Having said that, I have developed other products with different chillies (Naga, Scorpion, Carolina Reaper) to increase the “heat” level while maintaining the taste, flavour and aroma.
Using my Biochemistry background and my love for tasty food, I have combined ingredients from different countries in a ratio that has the desired result – flavour, taste and kick
But, it’s not for me to judge. Why not try any of the Wiga Wagaa products and let me know what you think?

I bought a jar of your coconut cooking sauce at the Bishop Auckland food festival and it’s sat on a shelf since then, we were stuck for what to give the kids for a quick dinner after being out all day and so I cooked chicken and peppers in the sauce, the kids loved it (as did mum and I) which is no mean feat as they can be fussy eaters.

I tried the coconut cooking sauce with chicken and peppers and it was absolutely delicious. I literally had a beautiful meal on the table in under 20mins. I’ve also just tried the chilli mayo which is hot hot hot but also absolutely beautiful

Can't believe if not come across this guy before. Really exceptional products. Very individual flavours. Some searingly hot but others soothingly mild. Delicious. I'll certainly be back for more.

Without doubt the most flavoursome super hot sauces I've ever had the pleasure of experiencing. As a lover of serious heat, Wiga Wagaa's sauces not only give u a serious heat kick but have some of the most complex and truly satisfying taste sensations I've ever experienced...

Honestly, the best hot sauce I've ever tried and I've tried a lot. My favourite is the Reaper, just a few drops and it transforms a dish into something amazing. I love it, I can't stop ordering it and I have, as of yet, to find a sauce made by this company that I haven't enjoyed, even if they aren't all as spicy as the Reaper. I would also HIGHLY recommend the Garlokra for transforming cheese on biscuits - just don't kiss anyone after ok?

I tried the recipe with trout tonight and my daughter who doesnt like fish asked me to make it for her. The great thing is its not just about heat but there is real flavour there too.
I'm sure I'll be buying more soon. Thanks and good luck — hope it becomes an even bigger success.

Picked this up at a Christmas market as a present for my boyfriend and it sat in the cupboard for ages as I’m not one for spice. We eventually used it in a meatball dish to make it less bland and it was delicious! In the past month we have went through an entire bottle spicing up ordinary dishes and I’m dying to buy some more! So nice both in sauces and as a dipping sauce on it’s own, will definitely be buying again.

Picked some jars of the African curry sauce @ the West Dean Chilli Fiesta! Absolutely delicious and good value @ 3 for £10. Shame they're not available for the same price online! And there's not a stockist near me ?

Fantastic stuff mate, but I’ll be less generous with it next time.
