The Freshest Ingredients
Our pizza and pasta sauces start with vine-ripened California tomatoes from the San Joaquin Valley. Chosen for their high solid content, the tomatoes provide a thick rich flavor base on which to build.

Looking to grow your brand through Private Label?
Pastorelli does that, too!
Restaurant operators often assume that they’ll need to order huge quantities to take advantage of custom formulation. However, nearly any restaurant or pizzeria with more than two locations can usually manage the 5,000-case minimum run requirement. We can manufacture your sauce once a year during the fresh California tomato pack season or we can produce off season several times a year. With flexible delivery and free storage, it’s time to explore what a custom sauce would mean for your business.
A custom sauce will reduce the time, effort and money needed to train your staff to cook, immediately creating a positive effect on your bottom line. Custom formulation also provides your customers with a consistent experience every time they dine at your restaurant and at each location they visit. Restaurant operators can also recognize new revenue streams from retail, online and in-restaurant sales of branded products.
It’s not just the ingredients you can choose. Pastorelli offers a variety of package types for your needs, including #10 cans, space-saving plastic pouches, jars, drums and totes to satisfy all your needs.
Level 2 Certification from SQF (Safe Quality Food), provides independent verification that our food safety and quality practices meet international standards. As a result, you can trust that your custom
sauce has been produced, prepared and handled according to the highest food safety standards. We can also meet your requirements for non-GMO, or Kosher pasta or pizza sauce at our state-of-the-art USDA and FDA-inspected facilities.
Yes! Our team also offers custom formulation for oils and vinegars. Talk to us today and we’ll design a custom solution for your needs.
Depending on the complexity of the sauce, and the method of creating the sauce (e.g. matching, duplication or custom creation) time can vary. Another factor could be the time of year, and if you want us to use freshly-picked tomatoes. We normally operate as expeditiously as possible, with a goal of delivering something to you within a matter of months, once the formula has been approved by your team.
