Our new line of dipping cups includes a new addition to Texas Pete® flavors, BBQ Sauce.
Helping operators navigate their road to recovery from the pandemic, Texas Pete® has just launched four flavors of its sauces in 1oz. Dipping Cups. These new products, produced by America’s #1 brand in portion control hot sauces, helps operators by allowing take-out, delivery, and dine-in customers to customize the flavor of their meal.
“The new dipping cups are a smart solution for multiple off-premise and dine-in occasions,” says National Accounts manager, Nikki Green, of Garner Foods®, the makers of the Texas Pete® brand. “Today’s customer prefers single-serve packaging for their condiments. Our four flavors are on trend and ideal for the customer’s demand for comfort foods.”
Texas Pete® Original Hot Sauce, Honey Mustard Sauce, Mild Wing Sauce, and our NEW BBQ Sauce are now available in disposable 1oz. dipping cups that are factory sealed and tamper evident. The sauces complement high demand menu orders for chicken tenders, sandwiches, BBQ, and pizza.
“The new dipping cups offer an easy solution for operators who have temporarily removed bottles from their dine-in tables compared to filling ramekins or using our 7gram PC packets,” says Green. “There is enough sauce within our 1oz. dipping cups to satisfy dine-in customers without the waste that sometimes happened with tabletop bottles. There is also enough to reduce customer requests for additional packets (one dipping cup is equivalent to four 7gram packets) assuring customer satisfaction and reducing stress on wait staff.”
The 1 oz. cups provide value to operators because they can add an additional charge to the customer for each cup instead of giving away PC packets or from bottles on the table.
Some operators are charging anywhere from 35¢ to 80¢ to customers for 1 oz. condiments. The four flavors come in 1oz./150 case counts.
According to Datassential, consumers view single-serve condiment as safe and reliable in the COVID environment.
Because the cups are factory sealed, operators also save time compared to filling plastic ramekins and taping lids for take-out orders that might leak during transport.
Texas Pete® is the top PC hot sauce provider in foodservice* serving national and regional chains as well as independents with three hot sauce flavors available in 7gram packets including Texas Pete® Original Hot Sauce, ¡SABOR! by Texas Pete® Mexican-Style Hot Sauce and CHA! by Texas Pete® Sriracha Sauce.
Operators can receive up to $500 on their purchase of the new 1oz. cups and other Texas Pete® products through the Texas Pete® Loyalty Program. Simply download your rebate coupon and redeem the rebates with a proof of purchase.
