Carumba

Carumba is an innovative sauce made from unsold tomatoes, onions, garlic, and Mediterranean carob, with sweet, spicy, and smoky notes.

About Carumba

Carumba is a savoury plant-forward condiment sauce developed as an innovative alternative within the savoury sauces category. Designed for both retail and food service applications, the product combines roasted vegetables with carob-derived ingredients to deliver a distinctive and appealing flavour profile. The formulation highlights natural sweetness, depth of taste and a characteristic brown colour while avoiding artificial additives or flavour enhancers.

The innovative aspect of Carumba lies in the integration of carob (an underused Mediterranean fruit) into a savoury emulsified sauce. This approach enables the product to naturally provide sweetness, colour and flavour complexity while positioning itself as a modern plant-forward alternative to conventional sauces. The product is presented in a reusable “Steinie” glass beer bottle equipped with a swing-top closure system, reinforcing its practical and sustainable positioning while reinforcing our local Belgian identity.
