How to Use Topping Sauces in Your Menu
Unlike coffee syrups, topping sauces are thicker and designed to sit on top of drinks or desserts rather than fully mix in. They help you create social-media-ready drinks with minimal training.
Hot chocolate & mochas – Swirl Luxury Milk Chocolate or Caramel inside the cup, then finish with whipped cream and another drizzle on top. Pair with your chosen blend from our Hot Chocolate range.
Desserts & plates – Drizzle pistachio, caramel or white chocolate sauces over brownies, waffles, cheesecakes and ice cream for quick, consistent plating.
With syrups – Combine topping sauces with flavours from our Simply Syrups range to build layered drinks (for example, caramel syrup in the drink with caramel sauce on top).
Because these sauces are ready to use straight from the bottle, they’re ideal for fast-paced counters, dessert bars and home drink enthusiasts who want Coffee Shop presentation without complex recipes.

FAQs About Topping Sauces
What is the difference between topping sauces and syrups?
Topping sauces are thicker and designed mainly for drizzling and decorating drinks and desserts, so they stay visible on whipped cream, inside cups or on plates. Coffee syrups are thinner and formulated to mix fully into hot and cold drinks to sweeten and flavour the whole beverage.
How do I use topping sauces in hot and cold drinks?
You can drizzle topping sauce around the inside of a cup before pouring the drink, add a swirl over whipped cream, or finish desserts with a decorative pattern. Popular uses include chocolate or caramel on hot chocolate, strawberry drizzle on milkshakes and pistachio or bubblegum sauce on frappes.
Are Simply topping sauces suitable for commercial use?
Yes. Simply Topping Sauces are supplied in catering-friendly bottles and are widely used in Coffee Shops, dessert bars, restaurants and workplace drinks stations. Always follow the handling and storage guidance on the label to get the best performance and shelf life.
Can I use these sauces in home kitchens as well as Coffee Shops?
Absolutely. While the pack sizes are designed with professional use in mind, topping sauces work just as well for home hot chocolate, pancakes, waffles and homemade frappes. Many customers like the convenience of having the same sauces they see in Coffee Shops at home.
Do I need a portion pump for 2.5kg sauce bottles?
You don’t have to use a pump, but a dedicated pump such as the Simply Sauce Portion Pump makes portion control easier, reduces mess and helps staff achieve more consistent presentation and costing per drink.
How should I store topping sauces and how long do they last?
Store topping sauces in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, with the cap closed firmly after each use. As a general guide, they are ambient-stable before opening and should be used within the timeframe indicated on the bottle once opened. Always check the best-before date and follow any specific storage instructions on the label.
