OUR LAO STYLE SAUCES ARE LOVINGLY CREATED BY YOYO

our story

Hi, I’m Yoyo the founder and creator of Yoyo Laos Sauce.

In Laos we like to eat spicy food with plenty of chilli. Sauce or ‘Jeow’ has always been an important part of a traditional Lao meal.

In the UK I really missed my Lao sauces so made my own and shared with friends who loved it. “if you bottled that, I’d buy it’. Well... that’s exactly what I decided to do!

Yoyo Laos Sauce can be used as a dipping sauce, as a marinade, added to a stir-fry or salad to really spice things up.

Winning Great Taste™ awards in 2021, 2022, 2023 & 2024 together with the overall winner of the UK National Chilli Awards in 2022 has inspired me to create further delicious, flavour-packed sauces so everyone can experience the taste of Laos.

Original Ginger Chilli Sauce

our laos sauces

Yoyo Laos Sauce is made in small batches combining ginger, chilli and garlic for an authentic Southeast Asian taste.

For those who like their sauces a little hotter, take a look at our Extra Hot Ginger Chilli Sauce and Luang Prabang Special!

Fresh Taste

We take pride in making Yoyo Laos Sauce with the freshest ingredients. Green chilli, red chilli, ginger and garlic are all carefully prepared and blended. We then add sugar, salt and lime juice to create a unique taste which we guarantee is unlike any other hot sauce you’ve tried before!

Ginger contains gingerol which is loaded with nutrients and bioactive compounds that have powerful benefits for your body and brain. Ginger has been shown to lower blood sugar levels and improve various heart disease risk factors as well as containing anti-inflammatory, antioxidant properties and beneficial for people with indigestion. It’s one of the very few superfoods which is worthy of that term.

Yoyo Laos Sauce is free from gluten, allergens and is vegan so everyone can enjoy it. Shake well before using with your favourite dishes.

SUPPORTING MAG

Laos has the unfortunate title of the most bombed country in history per capita. The legacy of the Vietnam War continues to impact lives and livelihoods in my home country. More than two million tons of cluster bombs were dropped with around 30% of these not detonating. Four decades later these relics of war continue to blight land, cause life changing injuries and loss of life in often rural communities.

There’s so much work still to do in Laos with over 1600km2 of land currently contaminated. Unexploded bombs have killed 20,000 people since the war ended, almost half have been children. Every bottle of Yoyo Laos Sauce purchased helps make countries like Laos safer, Khop Jai (thank you).
