Our Story
Where flavor meets heart
Yummy Lotus began in 2016 with one goal:
to create vibrant, handcrafted pepper jams that bring people together.
​
What started as a simple love for cooking and hosting quickly grew into a passion for making food that sparks conversation, connection, and joy. Each recipe was born in a small Colorado kitchen, perfected by sharing jars with neighbors, friends, and farmers market regulars who tasted the very first batches.
Those early smiles, “wow” reactions, and “I’ve never tasted anything like this” moments became the heartbeat of Yummy Lotus.
Handcrafted From Farm to Jar
We proudly craft vegan, gluten-free, small-batch pepper jams using only the freshest fruit and clean ingredients. No fillers. No shortcuts.
Just real, vibrant flavor you can trust on your family’s table.
Every jar is made with intention —
slow-cooked, tasted, adjusted, and loved into perfection.
​
Our flavors are wild, bright, sweet, spicy, and a little bit unexpected…
exactly like the people we make them for.
Rooted in Colorado Community
You’ll find us where Yummy Lotus truly comes alive:
Colorado farmers markets.
​
We spend our weekends sampling jams, laughing with customers, meeting families, and watching kids pick their “favorite flavor” like it’s a big decision (because it is!).
​
We’ve hand-delivered jars across the Front Range, shared recipes with strangers who became friends, and built a community that feels like family.
​
This isn’t just a business,
it’s a real relationship with the people we serve.
Why We Do What We Do
Food has always been our favorite way to connect.
To slow down.
To gather.
To make ordinary moments feel special.
​
Each jar is an invitation
to surprise your taste buds
to try something fun and new
to share with someone you love
to create a meal that is a little bit Yummier
Yummy Lotus is bigger than jam.
It’s a way of bringing joy to the table.
The Journey Ahead
We’re so grateful for the support that has helped Yummy Lotus grow from a single farmers market tent to a brand carried by small shops, hotels, and loyal customers all across Colorado.
Whether you found us at a market, through a friend, or online —
we’re thrilled you’re here.
