Sauce Bauce was born in 2020, at the height of the pandemic, starting where many real food stories do: in the backyard. What began as experimenting with jerk marinades quickly turned into selling jerk chicken plates and comfort-style food to friends, neighbours, and local businesses looking for a good lunch during uncertain times.

By 2022, we stepped back to define our direction. The focus became clear: bold sauces, wings, and high-impact comfort food. That year, Sauce Bauce entered the pop-up scene across Toronto, including a standout run at STACKT Market, where we were selected for their 5-week summer pop-up series from May through September. Because of strong demand, we were invited back for Caribana weekend to run a three-day pop-up that filled Front and Bathurst with the aroma of our charcoal smoker and delivered exceptional results.

In 2023, Sauce Bauce secured a six-month residency at STACKT Market, operating at high volume and generating over $100,000 in sales, significantly expanding brand exposure and proving our ability to execute consistently at scale.

In 2024, we continued to grow through pop-ups and catering collaborations, including multiple events at UHN hospital locations across the city.

Today, Sauce Bauce is focused on premium catering, sauces, wings, and prepared foods, bringing everything we’ve learned together into one cohesive brand. From backyard beginnings to large-scale events, our mission remains the same: deliver bold flavour, clean execution, and food that keeps people coming back.
