Ingredients drive taste and quality. Unlike our competitors, Victoria never adds water, paste, sugar or preservatives, and only uses 100% Italian tomatoes; 100% imported olive oil; and fresh onion, herbs and garlic in our premium sauces.
There are actually two reasons. The obvious one is that the V design graphically stands for “Victoria,” and we believe that helps provide a uniquely premium and sophisticated look that also makes it more easily recognizable on the shelf.
Yes, all those words are relevant. The goal is to provide homemade taste in a jar to make it more convenient for our customers. This requires two things. The foundation is good Ingredients. We use an authentic Italian recipe, never adding water, paste or sugar. We use only 100% Italian tomatoes; 100% imported olive oil; and fresh onion, herbs and garlic. Next, unlike our competitors, who use quick-cooking heat transfer tubes, Victoria only uses a slow kettle-cooked process, just like you would use at home. The combination makes for a superior pasta sauce that tastes homemade.
Apart from its old-world Italian charm, the gondola embodies elegance, romance and a deliberate slowness. After hours of rushing, stressing and worrying, our sauces transform a simple meal into something relaxing and enjoyable. We use only the finest ingredients and slow kettle-cooking process to give our pasta sauce an authentic homemade taste so you don’t have to take the time to do it yourself. So take a ride with us, slow down and taste what life has to offer.

Victoria Marinara is the original flagship product based on a generations-old recipe. Victoria White Linen™ was introduced in 2006. This contemporary recipe is bright and refined, with an epicurean blend of imported whole Italian plum tomatoes and domestic diced tomatoes for a robust, restaurant-style texture.
Calcium chloride is a naturally occurring salt, sometimes referred to as pickling salt, that helps vegetables maintain their natural firmness. It is used in many natural products including tofu, artisanal pickles and bottled water. The diced tomatoes Victoria uses in its sauces contain small amounts of calcium chloride to aid in maintaining a hearty tomato texture.
The sauce is exclusively made for Costco Nationwide and available in Canada.
