European Flavour Factory Hot Sauces Add Sizzle to Your BBQ Party

Unpopular opinion? Condiments are the unsung hero behind every great meal. Thoughts? Whether we admit it or not, we depend on these plant-based add-ons to amp up the dishes’ flavours or to rescue a bland dish from the bin! From your childhood go-to’s like ketchup and HP sauce, mustard and mayonnaise, to the tongue-tingling delights of hot sauces, how often do you enjoy a meal without a little daub or dip of something yummy?

At CHFA in April, we met an incredible couple from Calgary, Vivien and Richard, who shared their unique European Flavour Factory hot sauces. The products were hard to miss with their eye-catching graphics and range of flavours on display.

Heavily Invested in Hotness

Together, these two created European Flavour Factory, which expands on the sauce recipes produced by Richard’s parents in Europe. Their product line has flavours for everyone, and best of all, their hot sauces are non-vinegar based, vegan, and gluten-free — except for the BBQ sauce.

Vivien and Richard also have a passion for gardening and cooking and even grow their own Carolina Reapers in their backyard greenhouse. That is dedication!

We love that every sauce features incredible illustrative art and tribute to the duo’s favourite places worldwide – Hungary, Germany, Turkey, France, and the Caribbean. These labels are definitely conversation starters featuring homages to firefighters, first responders, and fierce K-9 units with as much bite as their hottest sauce.

Award-Winning Hot Sauces

The brand now has three significant awards under its belt and garnered in just the past two years. This team is on its way to becoming a household name. (Move aside Frank!)
