Brutal Candy is more than just a business; it’s a labour of love, passion, and tradition. We are a small, family-oriented company dedicated to bringing you the most delicious biltong in town, crafted right from our home.
Our Story
Our journey began with a cherished family recipe that has been passed down through generations. My grandfather, a true artisan of biltong, taught me the art of making this beloved snack, with a unique twist—a fiery kick of chilli that makes our biltong stand out. At Brutal Candy, we honour this legacy with our signature product, Chilli Bites.
Chilli Bites aren’t just your average biltong. They are an explosion of flavours, with the perfect balance of heat and savoriness that keeps our customers coming back for more.
Each bite is a testament to our dedication to quality and tradition, crafted from the finest cuts of locally sourced beef steak and meticulously spiced with a blend of chillies and other secret herbs and spices that give it that distinctive Brutal Candy taste.
Our Team
We are a small, tight-knit team of four, including our dedicated employees, Charles and his wife, Nomvelo. Their hard work and commitment are the backbone of our business, ensuring that each packet of Chilli Bites maintains the high standards of quality and flavour that we are known for.
Our Product
At Brutal Candy, we pride ourselves on creating biltong that is not only delicious but also accessible. Our Chilli Bites are packaged in convenient 20-gram packets, making them the perfect snack on the go.
Whether you’re in a bar, a supermarket, a tuckshop, or a service station, you can enjoy the spicy goodness of Chilli Bites anytime, anywhere. And at just $1 per packet, they are an affordable treat for everyone.
Our Reach
Starting from our beloved hometown of Victoria Falls, our Chilli Bites have quickly gained popularity across Zimbabwe. We currently supply our products to 15 stores in Victoria Falls, Hwange, and Harare. But we’re not stopping there.
With ambitious plans to expand into Bulawayo, Beitbridge, and Masvingo by the end of this year, we aim to be a household name across the nation. Our goal is to service 100 stores by year’s end, bringing our unique flavour to even more biltong lovers.
