Nag’s Temperos · Brussels
Célia Cabral
Founder
A Brussels resident by choice, but Cape Verdean at heart. Célia founded Nag’s Temperos to bring the flavors of the Atlantic to Belgian and European tables—without compromise, without additives.
HER CAREER
From the Atlantic archipelago to the
Brussels cuisine
Célia Cabral grew up surrounded by the flavors of Cape Verde—spices slowly infused, recipes passed down from generation to generation, cooking as an act of love. When she moved to Brussels, she noticed something was missing: these authentic seasonings weren’t available on the Belgian market.
It was in her Brussels kitchen that the first Nag’s Temperos recipes were created. Not a reproduction, but an interpretation: Cape Verdean traditions meet the expectations of today’s Belgian consumers—impeccable quality, transparent ingredients, and gourmet presentation.
Today, Nag’s Temperos offers a complete range of products—dried spices, creamy seasonings, and flavored oils—distributed from Brussels throughout Belgium and internationally.

A Belgian market with no local equivalent. The obvious solution: create what’s missing.

“I wanted every jar to capture the essence of the Atlantic—its scents, its warmth, its bounty. And for it to find a place in every kitchen.”
