Mojo’s Hot Sauce

Both Bill and Lizz attended New England Culinary Institute, Bill receiving a degree in Culinary Arts and Lizz going on to complete a Culinary Management Degree.

Before coming to Ithaca, Bill owned a Café on St John in the US Virgin Islands where he first thought of creating a retail line of hot sauces.

After settling in the Ithaca area in 2015 (in Newark Valley) we both worked in a few local eateries, where we saw an opportunity for a local, flavor-forward hot sauce. We also began to form relationships with local farmers and small business owners. We realized what an amazing place the Finger Lakes Region is for growing a wide variety of produce and wanted to share these flavors with the world!

In the Fall of 2019, we launched our first two sauces: Spooky Pumpkin and Smokin’ Hot Heirloom, and by the Spring of 2020 had our full line developed.
