Fat Cat Sauces originated from a blend of cultural influences and a passion for condiments. The founder, Eyal, inspired by his South American mother and Middle Eastern father, grew up with a variety of spicy and flavorful table condiments. His first venture into hot sauce creation was an experimental twist on a family peri peri recipe, which led to further experimentation with home-grown chilies. The turning point came when friends and neighbors, who enjoyed the homemade sauces at grill-outs, began requesting them for their own use. This encouraged the founder and his wife to start a business, combining their love for grilling and sauces with a recognition of the potential in the "Foodie + Cat-Lover" market. Fat Cat Sauces was born, and today is based in Orlando, Florida, with a focus on creating sauces that are "flavor forward," not ‘heat forward," in that they want you to taste what’s in them, not just make your food hot.
From the founders:
We don't try to make the hottest hot sauce but do try to make the best hot sauce -- our goal is to use flavor and heat as complements, so that we can provide unique, exotic, tasty twists to food instead of just over-whelming flavors with nothing but heat. Some of our sauces are spicy, some are mild, but we guarantee you’ve never tasted anything like them.
