Chicaoji Sauce makes good food taste better!

Chicaoji Sauce tastes good on just about everything! It features a unique blend of goji berries and cacao with smoky chipotles. The complex flavor combines with a great diversity of foods as a condiment and as an ingredient in recipes. Chicaoji deliciously weaves together sweet, sour, salt, bitter, savory and spicy.

Heat level: Medium
The heat level complements rather than dominates the flavor of food.

Ingredients are organic, vegan, gluten-free and GMO-free and the sauce contains no preservatives, flavorings, colorings or any additives of any kind.

Chicaoji Sauce is truly a “taste of Lopez Island”. It was created during the summer of 2007 by the people who taste-tested Randall Waugh’s variations of a sauce featuring the amazing combination of goji berries and cacao. These taste experiments were guided by the people who ate and offered their opinions at the Vortex Juice Bar & Cafe that summer.

Great ingredients mean great taste

The unique combination of ingredients add great flavor to almost any food.

  • Sweet and tangy goji berries balance the chocolate-ty bitterness of cacao (Cacao is what chocolate is made from).
  • Tart apple cider vinegar compliments the sweet agave or maple syrup.
  • Smoky chipotles heat things up just enough.
  • Sea salt weaves together all the flavors.

 

Our goal is to provide a healthy and nutritious food that adds delicious nourishment to anything…even a bowl of water.
