What if one sauce could help you do more with your menu—without adding complexity in the kitchen?

With tighter operations and growing demand for new flavors, many operators are focusing on getting more out of the ingredients they already use. One of the smartest ways to do that? Cross-utilization.

A single sauce can be used across multiple applications—dipping, tossing, glazing, and finishing—making it easier to streamline back-of-house while still delivering bold, on-trend flavors your guests love.

It’s a simpler, more strategic way to innovate.

Bring depth, heat, and heritage to the plate with Kagome’s Sizzlin’ Mole!

We’re helping operators deliver bold, globally inspired flavors—without adding complexity in the kitchen. This versatile sauce combines warm spices, roasted aromatics, and a hint of cocoa for a rich, layered profile your guests will remember.

With 50% of operators identifying mole as a growing long-term trend, now is the time to bring it onto your menu.

Here’s how you can use it:
• Drizzle over tacos for added depth
• Brush onto proteins for a glossy, flavor-packed glaze
• Elevate tostadas, shareables, and fusion dishes

Authentic flavor—adapted for today’s menus.

With Kagome, operators don’t just keep up with trends—they lead them. Start your sauce innovation journey by visiting KagomeUSA.com!

Happy National Donut Day!

A great donut starts with great dough. But what makes it unforgettable is everything that comes after.

The glaze that catches the light. The drizzle that makes it look too good to eat. The filling that makes someone buy a second one before they finish the first.

Kagome's icings are formulated for both applications. A smooth, consistent drizzle on top or a rich, flavorful fill inside. Either way the donut wins.

What if your fried chicken stayed crispy longer, held up in delivery, and made your sauce strategy simpler all at once?

That's Crunch Seal®. Kagome's proprietary oil-based sauce is a texture management system engineered to protect crunch and deliver consistent eating quality under real-world foodservice conditions.

Here's what it brings to the back of house:
-Hold Time Reliability: Consistent eating quality across dayparts through extended hold.
-Delivery Friendly: Resists steam and sauce-induced sogginess so the crunch survives the container.
-Simplifies Sauce Strategy: Delivers flavor without relying on wet sauces for cleaner, more consistent application.
-Premium Texture Perception: Higher perceived value that supports seasonal and specialty LTOs.
-Menu Versatility: Easy flavor extensions and faster innovation cycles for operators who need to move quickly.
