Producer

The first HotBabe-HotSauces were made in Yelm, WA in 2013. Sandra Bocas, dubbed locally as the “Queen of Peppers”, took her enthusiasm for fresh, clean food and hot peppers, mixed them with her Caribbean roots and imagined bottled hot sauce into reality. In 2017 she and Fiona Douglas-Hamilton joined their talents and HOTBABE-HOTSAUCE moved to a larger commercial kitchen in Tumwater, WA where they continue to produce their gourmet line of Caribbean and fruit based seasonal small batch hot sauces. The duo, intent on expanding the use of hot sauce as more than a condiment by focusing on Heat with Flavor™, now have a range of delicious hot sauces that represent flavors of the Caribbean that can also be used as marinades/cook sauces.

Sandra and Fiona strongly believe good food begins with quality ingredients. They create their hot sauces using fresh, vegan, gluten free ingredients (sourced locally when feasible), blended without gums or additives and their Caribbean hot peppers are grown exclusively for them in Thurston county.
