Free sauce bottle labels

You can make free sauce bottle labels in your browser: flavor, heat, net content, and a barcode on a wrap sized to your bottle. If you sell several flavors, print them all from one catalog CSV. No signup.

Put in your flavor and heat, check one bottle, then print the wraps.

Hot sauce label examples you can open and edit

These are real renders from the editor. The brands, flavors and batch codes are made up for the examples. One bottle face filled from a variant sheet, one wrap for a sauce jar, and one small barcode label for a neck or a case.

The first card loads a variant sheet. To start without one, use the plain hot sauce label. This is the hot sauce template in the free app. Open it and swap in your own text.

What to put on a sauce bottle label

A buyer picks up a bottle and reads two things first: the flavor and how hot it is. Give those the biggest lines.

Below that, the net content, a batch code and a barcode. Then the allergen and ingredient blocks, in the words you supply.

If you sell gift sets, a variant is just another version of the same layout with a different flavor line.

Measure the bottle: face, wrap or neck

Bottles curve more than jars, so the label size comes from the bottle in your hand.

• Face label. A patch on the front of a flat or wide bottle. The 4 x 3 hot sauce example is a face label. Measure the flat front between the shoulder and the base, and stay inside it.
• Wrap. Goes partway around a round bottle or jar. Wrap a strip of paper where the label sits and mark where it still lies flat at the top and bottom edge. A tapered bottle is narrower at the top, so a wrap that fits the bottom wrinkles at the shoulder. Don't use the full circumference. Leave a gap where the ends would meet.
• Neck or case label. A small strip for a SKU barcode, a batch code, or the flavor on the shipping case. The third example is a DYMO 30334 at 2.25 x 1.25 in.

Set that width and height in the editor before you design. If a label looks perfect on screen and wrinkles on the bottle, it's the wrong size, not the wrong font.

How to make sauce bottle labels

1. Open https://app.mylabelmaker.com. No signup.
2. Set the size to the bottle wrap you have.
3. Add the flavor, heat, net content, and barcode, plus the allergen and ingredient blocks you wrote.
4. Preview two SKUs, then print.

Every flavor from one CSV

Say your catalog sheet has one SKU per row. You don't need a separate file for each flavor. Here is the fictional variant sheet behind the first example:

1. Open https://app.mylabelmaker.com with the variant sample. The sheet above is already loaded.
2. Click Data and upload your catalog CSV or Excel file, or paste the rows. Keep the column names in the first row.
3. Click a text box, then Variables, and pick the column: Flavor large, Heat under it, Ingredients in the middle, Size and Batch at the bottom.
4. Step through the rows. "Chipotle Maple" is the longest flavor name. If it wraps, make the type a little smaller or shorten the name on the bottle.
5. Open Edit row and tick the flavors you're bottling. Rows start unticked.
6. Click Print and enter how many labels each flavor needs. One flavor today? Print this prints only the label on the canvas.

The spreadsheet label page maps the columns you already have, and the mail merge labels guide covers the same idea from a mail-merge list.

Need bars for a number you already own? That's the barcode label maker.

Making barbecue sauce? BBQ sauce labels has its own template with a flavor profile line and lot code.

Print from this computer, or save a file

On a Zebra, print with Browser Print at the printer's DPI.

No Zebra? Download PNG, JPEG, SVG, PDF, or ZPL. Save the JSON too, since it keeps the editable master for the next batch.

Whatever you print on, print one first and stick it on a full bottle. The label stock and adhesive are your choice, so check it holds on a cold bottle and a wet one before you print the run.
