Rose Rotondo and her son Zach Rotondo are the dynamic duos behind Sauce by Rose, a small business that specializes in all-natural, healthy pasta sauces. The business was born out of a need to cater to Zach's dietary needs as a powerlifter. Rose started cooking pasta sauces for her son, and soon her friends and family started taking notice of her delicious creations.

The positive feedback she received from her friends and their mutual acquaintances encouraged Rose to start selling her sauces. She realized that there was a market for her homemade sauces, which were made with all-natural ingredients and had no additives or chemicals.
Rose's vision for the business is to expand it as far as possible. She is inspired by her grandmother from Italy, who passed down her love of cooking and especially pomodoro sauce. Rose is committed to using the best ingredients for her sauces, and she spends an entire day finding the right tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, and herbs to use in her sauces. The process of creating the sauces takes at least three hours, but Rose and Zach believe that the effort is worth it.

Rose and Zach take their health seriously and enjoy working out at their favorite gym in Jacksonville, Fitness 1440. In their free time, they like to explore different markets around Jacksonville to find inspiration for new sauces. They are passionate about finding the right balance of ingredients to create the perfect taste.
Sauce by Rose has many different types of sauces that follow the same precedent of keeping them completely natural and healthy.
