Butterfly Bakery began as a small bakery in Barre, Vermont, where Claire Georges made cookies and granola. Trading unsold baked goods for chili peppers at the farmers market led to hot sauce, and today the kitchen makes sauces, salsas and whole seed mustards by hand from small-farm ingredients, with flavor first, heat second, and often a touch of maple. Their sauces have been on Hot Ones, praised by Food & Wine and awarded internationally.

Butterfly Bakery Rum Barrel Fermented Smoked Jalapeño is a medium-heat, once-a-year sauce: Vermont red jalapeños smoked over maple wood, then mashed, brined and fermented in a St. Johnsbury Distillery rum barrel, with just vinegar and salt added. The result is deep, richly wooded and layered.
It won bronze for medium chili sauces at the 2025 European Hot Sauce Awards and second place for best sauce in Boston at the 2024 Wicked Pissah Awards. Try it on pizza, breakfast sandwiches, ramen and wings.
