Lilliput Capers (3–5 mm): The Essence of Mediterranean Flavor

Tiny yet intense — Lilliput Capers are the smallest and most delicate variety in the caper family, celebrated for their vibrant aroma and refined acidity. At BestCapers.com, we hand-select and carefully brine each batch to preserve their natural texture and characteristic Mediterranean taste.

These miniature buds are harvested in the early stages of blooming, when their flavor concentration is at its peak — offering a perfectly balanced, tangy accent to gourmet dishes and sauces.

Authentic Origin and Hand-Harvested Quality

Our Lilliput Capers are sourced from certified farms across Turkey’s Aegean and Mediterranean regions, where the warm climate and mineral-rich soil produce exceptional quality.Each caper is hand-picked, sorted, and naturally cured in brine, ensuring consistent flavor and freshness.

All processing facilities operate under HACCP, ISO 22000, and FSSC 22000 standards, meeting international export requirements.

Culinary Applications of Lilliput Capers

The Lilliput size (3–5 mm) is ideal for dishes requiring finesse and subtlety. Their texture and flavor shine in:

• Premium sauces and dressings (especially tartar or piccata)

• Seafood and Mediterranean salads

• Tapenades and gourmet spreads

• Pasta, poultry, and veal recipes

• Delicate garnishes and fine dining plating

Chef’s Insight:

Because of their size, Lilliput Capers absorb flavors quickly and provide an immediate burst of freshness.
