Hot Sauces

Shop The Goods

Hot sauce started as a fun little side-gig and very quickly grew into our main gig. Our hot sauces taste like the peppers that are in them - which all come from small farms within 200 miles of our Barre, Vermont kitchen and are picked at the peak of ripeness and flavor. We're now the largest purchaser of Vermont grown chili peppers and we're pretty darn proud of that!

From Field to Table

Sourced from Small Farms

At Butterfly Bakery of Vermont, our hot sauces begin with peppers grown to peak ripeness on small farms. Partnering exclusively with small farms isn’t the easiest path, but it guarantees that every pepper we use has been planted, nurtured, and harvested with flavor as the top priority.

Crafting the Blend

Each sauce is built around what’s growing in the fields, then layered with collaborations that celebrate other local makers - like Heady Topper from The Alchemist, coffee from Carrier Roasting, and rum from St. Johnsbury Distillery. The result is a lineup of well-balanced, full-flavored, and one-of-a-kind sauces to pair with every meal. CEO and founder Claire Georges still tastes nearly every batch before bottling to ensure the sauce reflects the quality of what our partner farms have grown.

Hands-on Approach

Whether we’re cooking a micro batch on the stovetop or 200 gallons in the big kettle, every bottle is cooked, filled, and labeled with care by our team in the Barre, Vermont kitchen. The process is hands-on from start to finish, and that attention shows in the final flavor.

Award Winning

From the Scovies to the International Flavor Awards - and three features on the hit show Hot Ones - our commitment to craft has earned recognition far beyond our home state. Chef Jason Vincent put it best in Food & Wine: “Butterfly Bakery of Vermont makes the best hot sauces in the country.”
