It all started when Devin, the creator of the company, started growing vegetables and hot peppers on his balcony. He used the yield of his first harvest, along with other fresh produce, to make some ghost pepper hot sauce. He then made other variants, and friends and strangers alike raved about the different sauces. A friend and restauranteur in the neighborhood urged Devin to take it to the next level, so he developed FireFlower.
