Official Cuphead-themed hot sauce is now available for purchase on The Cuphead Show website. The condiment comes from a collaboration between the minds behind Cuphead and Jade City Foods, featuring six differently-flavored hot sauces. Flavors include ‘Cuphead’s Double Down: Strawberry Habanero Sauce,’ ‘Ms. Chalice’s Nothin’ But Trouble: Blueberry Habanero Sauce,’ and more. The hot sauces come complete with all six flavors for $90, but customers can also purchase them individually. Interested parties can also purchase Cuphead-themed espresso on the website.
Fans of Cuphead, Mugman, Elder Kettle, Ms. Chalice, King Dice, and The Devil will find each of the beloved characters represented on the hot sauce bottles. The 'Cuphead Show Hot Sauce' is available on The Cuphead Show website.
