Customer Insights: Shaping Hot Sauce Innovation
Over the years, we’ve received countless reviews, comments, and suggestions from hot sauce lovers across the globe. Here’s what we’ve learned:
-
Heat Balance Is Key: Many customers have expressed the importance of balancing heat with flavor. While some love the intense heat of our Hot Red SoCal Hot Sauce, others prefer the milder, creamy notes of the Original Avocado SoCal Guac Sauce. As a result, we’ve worked tirelessly to refine our heat levels to create sauces that offer just the right amount of spice while enhancing the natural flavors of the ingredients.
-
Demand for Unique Flavors: Hot sauce enthusiasts are always on the hunt for something new and exciting. From customer surveys and direct feedback, we’ve seen strong demand for bold, innovative flavors beyond the typical heat-and-vinegar combinations. This has inspired us to explore unique flavor profiles that blend sweetness, smokiness, and even earthy undertones, just like our Original Red SoCal Hot Sauce®, which pairs smoky chilies with a hint of tang.
-
Clean, Sustainable Ingredients Matter: More and more customers are looking for sauces made with clean, natural, and sustainable ingredients. We’re proud that our sourcing practices reflect these values, and we’ve doubled down on ensuring our ingredients come from local, sustainable farms dedicated to ethical practices. This commitment ensures that every bottle of SoCal Hot Sauce is not only delicious but also crafted with care for both people and the planet.
