Totapuri Mango Gochujang BBQ Sauce - a sweet-heat bomb that will make taste buds (and sales charts) explode

Mango Gochujang BBQ Sauce

Why this recipe is a game-changer

• Totapuri Mango Concentrate (TMC) delivers the tang. Its naturally higher acidity cuts through fat and adds brightness that Alphonso just can’t match.

• Gochujang brings the umami fire. The fermented Korean chilli paste marries perfectly with the tropical notes of TMP, creating a sauce that’s equal parts sweet, spicy, and savory.

• Zero mainstream competition yet. No big brand owns this flavour profile, giving early adopters serious first-mover bragging rights.

• Cross-category versatility. Works as a wing glaze, pulled-pork mop, pizza drizzle, vegan bowl topper, or even a Bloody Mary kicker. Talk about SKU efficiency.
