[Food&Dining] Samlip’s Pig in the Garden Launches 12 Low-Sugar Sauces & Dressings

The rise of the “Modisumer” – a portmanteau of “modify” and “consumer” – who enjoys reinterpreting food with personal recipes, is driving demand for versatile sauce products. The domestic sauce market in Korea has grown from approximately 1.37 trillion won in 2019 to around 3 trillion won in 2024, establishing itself as a key category in the food and dining sector.

The Growing Demand for Low-Sugar Options

Responding to this trend, Samlip has introduced a low-sugar line of sauces and dressings under its wellness brand, ‘Pig in the Garden.’ Consumers are increasingly scrutinizing ingredient lists, even for low-sugar products, reflecting a heightened focus on health and wellness. The new products minimize artificial sweetness by excluding sucralose, acesulfame potassium, and aspartame, instead utilizing allulose and stevia extract.

A Diverse Range of Flavors

The low-sugar sauce range includes six varieties: low-sugar tomato ketchup, low-sugar mustard, low-sugar oyster sauce, low-sugar teriyaki sauce, low-sugar sweet chili sauce, and low-sugar charcoal spicy sauce. The low-sugar dressing line likewise features six options: low-sugar oriental dressing, low-sugar balsamic dressing, low-sugar ranch dressing, low-sugar garlic pepper dressing, low-sugar kiwi dressing, and low-sugar sesame black dressing.

Versatility in the Kitchen

These sauces and dressings are designed for broad application, enhancing not only main dishes like fried and stir-fried foods but also salads, sandwiches, and side dishes. Their clean flavor profiles complement a wide range of ingredients without overpowering them, elevating the overall taste experience.

Consumer Response and Availability

Early consumer feedback has been positive, with many appreciating the clean, non-artificial sweetness and the ability to manage their diet more effectively. Consumers are also noting satisfaction with the detailed ingredient lists. The new products are available online and at major discount retailers.

Beyond Sauces: Pig in the Garden’s Expansion

Samlip’s Pig in the Garden is expanding its product line beyond salads to include chicken breast, health soups, and other options designed to provide consumers with convenient and healthy meals.

Samlip representatives stated that as consumer needs for sauce products grow more segmented, more and more consumers are choosing products based on detailed ingredient lists as well as taste. They encourage consumers to enjoy a more delicious and diverse diet with these new products.
