Ember & Zest
Small-batch hot sauce — in the works

Small batches. Bold plans.

Ember & Zest is a small-batch hot sauce brand still in the making. We're developing our recipes and planning our first face-to-face appearance at a local farmers market, with an online store to follow.

Status: recipes in development, first market date coming soon.
Our story

Made in small batches, on purpose.

Ember & Zest started with one idea: hot sauce should taste like something, not just burn. Every batch is made small and bottled by hand, built around two forces — ember for real heat, zest for real brightness.

We're building this brand the honest way: straightforward ingredients and clear labels, with small-batch food-labeling and compliance requirements being worked through now — before anything goes to market, not bolted on after the fact.

Small batch, on purpose

We make sauce in small runs so every bottle stays close to the recipe — not scaled down for mass production.

Local first

Farmers markets and local pop-ups come first, so you can taste before you buy a case.

Clear labels

We're working through compliant, easy-to-read labeling requirements now, before our first bottle ships — not an afterthought.

The lineup

The flavors are still simmering.

We're still developing our first Ember & Zest recipes. Once they're ready, they'll debut at a farmers market before they ever hit the online store — that's the plan.
