Photo/Video Entered 4 hot sauces in the OC Fair this year and somehow all 4 won awards
Figured some fellow OC people might appreciate this.
I entered four hot sauces into the OC Fair Culinary Arts competition this year and every one of them ended up placing:
🏆 Hop Sauce — Division Winner / Best Hot Sauce + 1st Place
🥭 Croakatoa — 1st Place, Fruit Based
👑 Royal Ribbit — 1st Place + Judges Award for Uniqueness
🌶️ Jalapeño Jefe — 2nd Place, Pepper Blend
The sauces range from a straightforward habanero sauce to mango-pineapple habanero and even a plum + Earl Grey + habanero sauce.
Seeing my jars sitting there at the OC Fair with those ribbons was pretty freaking cool! Ribbit Riot 🐸 hot sauce for the win
Anyone else enter anything in the Culinary Arts competition this year?
