I love these pasta sauces - just about every flavor this company makes is amazing! The Arrabbiata is pretty spicy, so watch out! The Tuscan Vodka is creamy and flavorful, the Puttanesca is tangy and chunky with lots of olives and capers, and the Marinara is a great base for just about any dish calling for a good tomato sauce. These are great with simple pasta, with ravioli, or just plain out of the jar! Yes, I do sometimes sit and eat these out of the jar with a spoon - they are THAT good.

As other reviewers have pointed out, the jars these come packed in are top-notch. I have never had the seeping-sauce problem others mention; perhaps it's because I use Prime and have these shipped via two-day instead of ground.

This product is an excellent example of why I'm addicted to Amazon - it is a fantastic product that is very rarely available in stores, especially in smaller towns, and this price is unbelievable! Look elsewhere on the web at what these sauces are selling for, and then remember that you can get free shipping with Amazon. Unbelievable deal for a very high-quality product. These sauces would be worth it at the "eight bucks a jar" charged by most other online stores; five bucks a jar is ridiculously cheap for the quality of ingredients you'll get in these.

As others have also noted, the company is very nice too - I e-mailed them with a question once and the owner wrote back to me personally.

We found this on a shelf in Whole Foods, Palo Alto, CA. Made in Somerville, MA, we wanted to support my home state and purchased this. Needing to fill 4 gift bags for our single friends, we wanted something scrummy and nutritious - and this fit the bill. We have not looked back. We constantly add it to gift baskets and care packages. Our personal favorite is the Arrabbiata Sauce. The product is good; the love story behind the company is fun; the containers are fabulous for re-use! Good people with a good product deserve to be supported and praised. Buon appetito!

Never thought I'd see the day I'd say this: This sauce is better than I make,( and I am a pretty good cook. It is very very good! I will be buying this regularly.

I look forward to having a meal with this sauce, great texture and a fantastic taste. The last time I bought this I needed to buy 2 cases because my guest always want some for at home. This would make a great gift to send someone if they live in another state and I intend to do just that.

I live in Boston and this sauce as better then what I get in some of the restaurants in the Italian section of Boston (the North End).

I have had this product before, but it is not available locally anymore. It is consistently outstanding and is as good as any recipe for a sauce I could make. Although it is on the expensive side, it is definitely worth it.

THIS MADE A FUN GIFT. IT WAS A NICE OPPORTUNITY TO TRY A VARIETY OF DIFFERENT SAUCES ALL OF WHICH WERE EXCELLENT. COST WAS A LITTLE HIGH.

This sauce is amazingly delicious. A loaf of bread, a bottle of wine and thine.

These were packed very good and the containers are nice for later use. I wasn't that crazy about the sauces.

Scarpetta Pasta Sauces are the best. What else can I say? This gift box contains one jar of each of these sauces...Marinara, Puttanesca, Arrabbiata, and Tuscan Vodka. It is a nice variety pack to try the sauces before ordering a box of your favorite flavor. It is packaged in a box for giving and then Amazon packs it for sending. Unfortunately, two of the four jars were seeping sauce. I have confidence Amazon will make it right.

I was told by the person who used this that the sauces were great. It was also a "Friday Sale' item and for about $5 a bottle including shipping, made a great gift.
