Pepper Chef

An anthropomorphic red chili pepper character dressed as a chef. The vector illustration features a vibrant red pepper body, a large white chef's hat (toque), white gloves, a prominent dark handlebar mustache, and a playful open mouth with tongue sticking out. Bold dark outlines with subtle gradient shading for volume. Cheerful, energetic, and welcoming mood with one hand extended presenting and the other in a confident fist. Perfect for Mexican restaurant logos, spicy food branding, culinary mascots, cookbook illustrations, and food festival graphics.
