Our Story

Hangry Spice Company was born from a lifelong passion for cooking, creativity, experimenting with flavors, and a love for creating great culinary experiences.

As the creator and owner of Hangry Spice Company, Michael has spent more than 40 years developing his culinary skills and experimenting with flavors in his own kitchen. An avid home cook, Michael has spent decades preparing buffet-style meals for family and friends, always looking for ways to make every dish more flavorful and memorable.

Over the years, Michael took his passion and culinary skills to the next level by professionally catering weddings, private functions, and other special events. Through these experiences, he continued experimenting with seasoning combinations and flavor profiles, ultimately developing the recipes that would become Hangry Spice Company’s signature seasonings: Sweet Kick, Li’l Kick and Fiery Kick.

“Developing these seasoning profiles has been a lifelong dream of mine.”
— Michael, Creator & Owner of Hangry Spice Company

Hangry Spice Company is built on a simple belief: great food starts with great flavor. Michael’s goal is to create versatile, high-quality seasoning blends that make it easy for anyone—from the everyday home cook to the experienced chef—to elevate their meals.

Each Hangry Spice seasoning has been created with purpose, passion, and years of hands-on cooking experience. Whether you’re preparing a family dinner, grilling with friends, hosting a special event, or simply looking to add something extra to your favorite dish, Hangry Spice is designed to make your culinary creations go from “good to great!”
