Spicy Cubes ingredients: what is in each gummy
Per 3 g gummy, the Spicy Cubes ingredients on the label we hold are chili pepper 30 mg, maca root 50 mg and an 810 mg proprietary blend of muira puama, epimedium, maca and ginger extracts, with 20 kcal. This page covers the botanical gummy we sell, not seasoning cubes. It shows how to read the label and what it leaves out.

On the label
What is in a Spicy Cubes gummy?
This is the label as we hold it: one gummy is 3 g and a pouch holds 30. If your pouch differs, the pouch is correct and we want to know.
Ingredient
Per gummy
What the label says
Chili pepper
30 mg

As listed. The full Supplement Facts are on the product page
Maca appears twice, as 50 mg of root and as a 4:1 extract inside the blend, and the label does not say how much extract the blend holds.
Reading the panel
How do you read the 810 mg proprietary blend?
A proprietary blend is a group of ingredients printed as one line with one combined amount. In the US, FDA's rules require a blend to show its name, its total amount and its ingredients from largest amount to smallest, but not the amount of each. So the label says that four extracts add up to 810 mg. It does not say how many milligrams of epimedium or ginger a gummy holds, and neither can we.
What does 10:1 mean on a label?
A 10:1 ratio means about 10 g of dried plant went into 1 g of extract. As arithmetic only, a 10:1 extract weighing 100 mg would stand for about 1,000 mg of dried plant. These are illustrative figures, not ours.
A ratio does not fix what is inside, either. A 2022 review in Frontiers in Pharmacology notes that the starting plant, the solvent, and the time and temperature of extraction all change the final extract. Two products can both say 10:1 and still differ, and the same goes for the 6:1 and 4:1 ratios on our label.
The plants
What are the Spicy Cubes ingredients, plant by plant?
None of these sources studied a Spicy Cubes gummy, and none shows that this product does anything. For the evidence question, read do Spicy Cubes work.
Chili pepper
Our label lists chili pepper at 30 mg and names no species or form. A 2022 umbrella review of 11 systematic reviews on eating spicy food and chili names capsaicin as the primary ingredient. It calls the health effects of eating them unclear and the strength of the evidence low, and it covers food intake, not a supplement.
Maca root
Maca (Lepidium meyenii) is a root from Peru, in the cabbage family, used as food there. A 2010 systematic review found four randomised trials with 131 people and called the evidence limited and too small for firm conclusions. It does not show that maca changes sexual function, and none of the trials assessed adverse effects.
Muira puama
Muira puama (Ptychopetalum olacoides) is a shrub native to the Brazilian Amazon; its bark and roots are used. A 2024 EBSCO summary calls scientific evaluations of its effects limited and often inconclusive and notes that no comprehensive formal safety evaluation has been done.
Epimedium
Epimedium, also known as horny goat weed, is a Chinese herb from several Epimedium species; icariin is one of its major compounds. Memorial Sloan Kettering says the evidence is limited and that other published trials tend to combine it with other herbs, so its own effect is hard to separate.
Ginger
Ginger (Zingiber officinale) is the rhizome, the underground stem. The US National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health lists nausea, menstrual cramps and knee osteoarthritis symptoms as studied uses, and says the evidence varies and is sometimes limited by study quality.
Ask a doctor or pharmacist first if any of this applies
Spicy Cubes are for adults 18 and over. Our product page says anyone who is pregnant, breastfeeding or taking any medication, particularly nitrates or blood pressure medication, should consult a doctor before use. Memorial Sloan Kettering says people with heart disease should not take epimedium and people with hormone-sensitive cancers should avoid it. More is on the Spicy Cubes side effects page.
Gaps
What does the label leave out?
- The rest of the gummy. The three lines in the label table add up to 890 mg of a 3 g gummy, and we hold no itemised list for the rest. FDA says ingredients outside the Supplement Facts panel go in an "Other ingredients" list beneath it. We have not seen one for Spicy Cubes; if your pouch has one, it is the reference.
- Sweeteners and allergens. The facts we hold name no sweetener and give no allergen statement. If an allergen matters to you, ask us before you buy.
- Gluten-free, vegan and non-GMO. This page makes no such claim, and we hold no supplier documents for any of them. Treat any such wording as unconfirmed until you see the documents.
We do not yet hold an independent batch report
A batch report (certificate of analysis) from an independent laboratory shows what a specific batch contains. Without one we cannot show that a gummy holds the amounts on the label, and we will not imply that we can. FDA does not approve dietary supplements before they are sold and says it does not routinely test them. "Made in an FDA-registered facility" is not a batch test either.
Label questions
Do Spicy Cubes contain THC, caffeine or drugs?
Question
What the label shows
What we cannot confirm
Cannabis
No cannabis, hemp, CBD or THC ingredient is listed.
That the finished gummy holds none. We have no test result.
Drugs
No drug ingredient is listed.
That nothing undeclared is present.
Caffeine
No caffeine, tea, coffee or guarana ingredient is listed.
The caffeine content of the finished gummy.
FDA warns that many products that claim to help with sexual enhancement are likely to be contaminated with dangerous hidden ingredients. We are not saying that applies to Spicy Cubes, but without a batch report we cannot show a test result for the finished gummy. The side effects page explains what the warning means for you.
We sell Spicy Cubes as a food supplement, not as a medicine. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.
Other sellers
Why do Spicy Cubes labels differ between sellers?
Spicy Cubes is a product name used by more than one seller (see what Spicy Cubes are), and the labels we have read differ. On 4 October 2026 we read the product pages of other sellers. One lists caffeine and L-theanine in its formula. Another names a flavour among its ingredients and gives no mg amounts on that page.
We are an independent seller and do not claim our formula matches anyone else's. See the independent seller notice and whether Spicy Cubes is real.
How do you compare two labels?
- Check the serving size and the count per pouch first.
- Look for an amount in mg for each ingredient. A blend shows one combined amount.
- Look for the extract ratio, such as 10:1, and remember it is not a measure of strength.
- Read the Other ingredients line, any allergen statement, the seller's legal name and address, and whether a batch report exists for your batch.
Compare like with like. A longer ingredient list does not make a better formula, and a shorter one does not make a worse one. Two labels can be compared directly only when the serving size, the units and the ratio notation match.
Questions about the Spicy Cubes ingredient list
What are Spicy Cubes made of?
Chili pepper, maca root and a blend of muira puama, epimedium, maca and ginger extracts. The amounts per gummy are in the label table at the top of this page.
What are the active ingredients in Spicy Cubes?
The Supplement Facts list chili pepper, maca root and the four-extract blend. We do not say which does what, because we have found no study of this finished gummy.
Do Spicy Cubes contain THC or have drugs in them?
The label we hold lists no cannabis, hemp, CBD, THC or drug ingredient. That describes the label, not a test result: we hold no independent batch report.
Do Spicy Cubes contain caffeine?
The label we hold lists no caffeine, tea, coffee or guarana ingredient. That describes the label, not a test of the finished gummy. Formulas differ between sellers: one other seller's product page we read does list caffeine. Check the Supplement Facts on the pouch you receive.
Are Spicy Cubes gluten free, vegan or non-GMO?
This page makes no such claim, because we hold no supplier documents for any of them. Check the pouch you receive.
Do Spicy Cubes expire?
Store the pouch as the pack directs and follow any date printed on it. We hold no shelf-life figure, so this page gives none.
Are the ingredients different for women or for couples?
The label we hold is one list, for adults 18 and over. "For women" and "for couples" describe how a seller markets a product, not what is in it. See Spicy Cubes for couples.
How many gummies is one serving?
One gummy (3 g) a day, at the start of the day, as the pack directs. Do not exceed the stated serving. If your pouch says something different, follow the pouch.
