The '''Bixaceae''' are a [[family (biology)|family]] of [[dicotyledon]]ous [[plant]]s commonly called the '''achiote family'''. Under the Cronquist system, the family was traditionally placed in the order [[Violales]]. However, newer arrangements move it, with some other families previously in the Violales families, into the [[Malvales]].

The Bixaceae include three genera and a total of 25 species, although ''Cochlospermum'' is sometimes placed into its own family, [[Cochlospermaceae]]. The best-known of the species in this family is the source of [[annatto]], the [[achiote]], which belongs to the type genus of the family.

Although small, this family has the diversity within to include [[tree]]s, [[herb]]s, and [[shrub]]s. The plants are [[hermaphrodite|bisexual]], and all species have five [[sepal]]s. All plants within the Bixaceae produce a red, orange, or yellow [[latex]].
