LA VICTORIA launched a new line of signature topping sauces in three flavors that instantly boost meals with the heat and depth of [Mexican-inspired cuisine](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mexicaninspired-meal-kits). These topping sauces are ready to be savored in varieties like Chipotle, Fiery Jalapeño and Sweet & Spicy, which allow for tons of creativity beyond traditional taco sauces, and tacos themselves. Packaged in [convenient squeeze bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heinz-flavor-tour), these sauces are ready to drizzle over sushi, nachos, salads, and more.

While the tomato-based Chipotle Sauce is a riff on the classic flavors of Mexican Tinga, the Fiery Jalapeño Sauce delivers a balance of sweetness, zestiness and heat with its combination of red jalapeños, ripe tomatoes, garlic and spices. Finally, LA VICTORIA's Sweet & Spicy Sauce delivers a global mashup of Thai sweet chili and Mexican spices.
