Jay Calvert, owner of Jake Albert’s Specialty Foods in London, Ont., has won awards for his delightfully, tongue-teasing sweet hot sauces that give a bowl of ice cream a whole new taste sensation. engagement rings settings
It adds a wow factor to your cold treat.
Jay introduced his first product, Fuego Rojo, (Spanish for red fire), a pomegranate habanero glaze, last summer to rave reviews. The sauce won big at the 2010 Scovie food product awards.
“For a first-year entry to win one award is amazing, for us to come away with three in our first year it was beyond words. We always knew we were on to something good, it was amazing to get the response we did,” says Jay, whose latest line of sweet heat sauces include Fuego Azul, (Spanish for blue fire — we figure Jay loves Spain). Both these sauces are very sweet with a lot of kick. ghd straighteners
They’re actually sweetened with organic cane sugar and pure Canadian honey. The heat comes from the mighty habanero chili pepper, one of the hottest of the bunch, which makes for a very amazing flavour sensation when poured on cold ice cream. Cheap True Religion Jeans
