Saucy Lips began in a family kitchen,—hand-bottling sauces for friends and family—then eventually local Miami Farmer’s Markets, and has grown into a business supplying kitchens worldwide. Inspired by the bold flavors of Mexico and crafted with real ingredients, each product brings a taste of home to every meal. At Saucy Lips, every sauce is a story, a tradition, and a taste of Mexico. Our journey began in the aromatic kitchens of Mérida, Yucatán, Mexico, where our mother, a true culinary innovator, crafted sauces that were more than just ingredients mixed together. They were a blend of love, tradition, and a piece of our family history, always made with a focus on clean, better-for-you ingredients. A decade after moving from Mexico to the United States, we, the Salazares family, continue to uphold and share this legacy. Saucy Lips is not just a brand; it’s a celebration of our heritage, inviting you to join our flavorful journey.
“At Saucy Lips, authenticity is our cornerstone. We create our sauces using traditional Mexican recipes, blending them with the freshest ingredients sourced directly from the rich soils of Mexico. Crafted in modern, SQF-certified facilities, each pouch of our sauce is a testament to our commitment to quality and genuineness.”
Saucy Lips is a Whole 30 Brand, found at Whole Foods Nationwide, Sprouts, ShopRite, Fresh Thyme, Central Market, Natural Grocers, HungryRoot, and now available on Thrive Market, as well as Amazon.

“I created Saucy Lips to share the flavors my family grew up with—bold, real, and rooted in tradition. Starting with sauces, the heart of any dish, my goal was simple: bring truly authentic Mexican taste to every kitchen, crafted with the same care and real ingredients I’d trust for my own family.”
