Hot Mama's Hot Website

Hot Mama's Hot Website | Cayo Scoop!  The Ecology of Cayo Culture | Scoop.it

Hot Mama's, hot sauce made in Cayo, got a new website.  It looks smooth, and the flames the appear when you navigate are a great touch.  Well done, Belize Internet Marketing and Website Design. 


"Typical Belizean hot pepper sauce – only with a twist (blended instead of chopped).  Belizeans love their hot pepper sauce and they have it with every meal.  Walk into any home or restaurant and it is readily available right there on the table.  Made with fresh vegetables such as carrots, onions, garlic, selected red habanero peppers, and mixed with the right combination of lime juice and vinegar.  Hot Mama's is sure there is a hot sauce with the correct amount of heat just for you!  Most importantly to note ---- no preservatives!"

Have you tried all the homemade jams and jellies at the market?  They also have homemade hot sauces too.  And they're hot!  On market Saturday, you can find those, and a wide selection of homemade wines.  Cassava, Cashew, Rice, Carrot, Papaya, Mango, and many more flavors.

 

"In the west, an agro-processing facility is providing alternative income for a group of women.  The project started on a small scale, but today the production of jams and juices from locally grown fruits has grown considerably, attracting support from the Food and Agriculture Organization."

'A Lesson in Heat!'  Marie Sharp's got a great review, and what a title they chose for it.  Everyone loves Marie Sharp's, but the author really had a 'crush' on her habanero sauces, and got to meet Marie herself!  

 

"'Marie Sharp?'  I wondered to myself.  'There's really a Marie Sharp?  It's not some fictional character made up by a corporation to sell hot sauce?'  Marie Sharp's hot sauce had been on every table I'd encountered since arriving in Belize four days prior.  I'd sprinkled it over my eggs, into a hot bowl of shrimp soup and timidly to the side of our chicken when I first encountered the 'fiery hot' variety.  With a presence like that, I expected big business.  I never expected to meet the woman responsible for concocting the hot sauce recipes that have become Belize's national condiment."
