Pekocko is a Franco-Slovenian brand created in 2015. Since then, we have been creating gourmet artisanal spicy sauces.

Passionate about cooking and taste (a bit spicy, you guessed it), we were a little surprised by the fact that in France, a country of gastronomy, a pepper lover only had the choice between Espelette pepper (which for us is not strong enough) and an American brand starting with T which offers a sauce that is too vinegary and too salty. (This opinion engages only us).

And that's how, -we'll make it short-, that a Slovenian cook, an artistic director of Serbian origin and having lived in the Gers, a Norman Swiss Army knife found themselves developing a range of hot sauces not fermented.

From growing the peppers to making the labels, we do everything ourselves. No laboratory but a small workshop. We are artisans and proud of it.

100% natural

They are made from fresh peppers, with no additives or artificial preservatives.

All the ingredients that go into the composition of our bottles are grown within a radius of 50 km around the workshop (except avocado, mango and some spices).

Our sauces are cooked with passion and above all for a very long time: we candied our fruit, transformed our tomatoes into sauce and our plums into jam… and then we added chilli. It represents hours of work.

Our sauces have taste

This means that we didn't just mix peppers of different strengths with vinegar and salt, but that we looked for the best combinations in order to make potency and flavor co-exist.

Each of our products has a very different and above all well-marked taste: grilled pepper, cocoa-tonka bean, guacamole or peated whisky!

In everyday life, we don't worry too much, but for our sauces, yes!

The traditional Scoville scale (which measures the strength of peppers and goes up to several million units) is not very practical. So that novices and informed consumers find their way around, we have therefore chosen to develop our own power scale.

Here is the PEKOCKO scale

Soft (Strength 2)
Medium (Strength 4 and 5)
Strong (Strength 6)
Extra strong (Strength 8 and 9)
Our sauces are of course gluten-free and most are vegan.
