Amazing for jazzing up all sorts of food
I absolutely love my spicy food and these chili pastes really deliver! I've been mixing into loads of different things; a personal favourite has been jazzing up plain old chicken soup. It's become a stock-cupboard essential of mine already
My third order - Really good
My third order and this time bought as a gift for some Christmas guests. Left it FAR to late but still had my delivery for the 24th which was brilliant! Thanks all and loving the pastes to bolster up my pizza toppings as much as for making proper Sri Lankan curry!
Great product!
Great product! Great people! If you love a little spice and a lot of flavour in your life this is what you need. 10/10

The Sri Lankan Style Chilli Paste is…
The Sri Lankan Style Chilli Paste is filled with fresh authentic flavours. It pairs so well with so many dishes. Must try! Will definitely be ordering more!
Nice authentic flavours in this chilli…
Nice authentic flavours in this chilli paste, it’s difficult to find Sri Lankan ingredients in supermarkets so this was a great find. Easy ordering and fast delivery and my family all enjoyed it too, will be ordering more!
Perfect gift and delicious kitchen staple
Delicious product and fast and efficient delivery. Can’t recommend enough - great for gifts!
Using it on everything
Using it on everything - it's so versatile. There's not only a great level of spice, but there's a great depth of taste and flavour too. Also can't believe how quickly it arrived.
I absolutely LOVE Thechiitrail!
I absolutely LOVE Thechiitrail!! The taste is sooo good and it has quickly become a daily part of all our meals!
The shopping and delivery experience was also super smooth and easy and I can’t for more flavors!!
Delicious chili paste
Delicious chili paste! its always stocked in my pantry from now on i use it on everything!
Authentic Sri-Lankan zing - add it to everything!
We loved the curries we ate in SriLanka and tried both the regular and vegan ChilliTrail pastes in the hope of reliving our travels. We are not disappointed - both pastes are super tasty, we use it with pretty much everthing on the side of the plate, but also add to chilli con carne and our home made curries for that extra zing. Also made pinwheels with flaky pastry - superb, try it for nibbles with drinks! Experience with a small business is so satisfying - really great personalised and efficient approach to orders and delivery. Can't wait to see what they come up with next!
Kitchen staple
Amazing flavour! I treated myself to both the original and the vegan products and they both slap! The paste has become almost a daily routine at this point, would massively recommend to anyone looking for something with a unique flavour profile. Has a bit of a kick but is not overwhelming like a lot of other products are.
A kitchen staple
Great flavour and with nice kick to it. I’ve been putting this on most dishes to spice them up a bit and have been loving it. A little goes a long way and the packaging looks very aesthetic on my kitchen shelf!
Loved this chilli paste
Loved this chilli paste. Works brilliantly in pad Thai, but surprisingly great with cheese and biscuits too. The vegan version is my favourite — full of flavour and nicely balanced.
‘The Chilli Trail’ Absolutely brilliant!
A brilliant brand and product, handmade in Brighton. The two co-founders are genuinely lovely people who are clearly putting their heart and soul into The Chilli Trail, and it truly shows in the quality of what they produce.
Their Sri Lankan chilli paste has become a staple in my household, with both myself and my family happily dolloping it on just about everything!
Sri Lankan chilli paste
Ordered the Sri Lankan chilli paste. Came within a few days which was great. It was well packed in a sturdy box with the jar protected by more packaging.
Used it first in an enchilada sauce. Added a nice kick of heat and flavour without blowing your head off. Looking forward to using it again and would def recommend it.
Very very tasty!
Got the non veggie one and it’s delicious. We add it to lots of our dishes now😋
Yummy!
I really enjoyed this product. The taste is really excellent. I had the non vegetarian and the fish flavour is delicious.
The chilli pasta goes with literally…
The chilli pasta goes with literally anything! It's got a unique flavour of sweet, spicy and smoky. I'll be buying lots more for Christmas.
