About Liv and Julz LLC

At Liv and Julz Specialty Foods, our story is one of family, flavor, and community. Founded by Sophia Mapes in February 2024, our business is a labor of love inspired by her husband and two daughters, Olivia and Julia, who are also the namesake of our brand. Sophia's journey began in her parents' garden, where she discovered the vibrant flavors of freshly grown jalapeños. Determined to share this culinary delight with her friends and family, she started making candied jalapeños that quickly became a hit among her loved ones. Driven by her passion for creating exceptional flavors, Sophia decided to turn her hobby into a business. Today, Liv and Julz is proud to offer a range of premium goods crafted with care and love. Located in the town of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, our business is deeply rooted in the local community. We are committed to sourcing the finest ingredients to bring you the best possible flavors. In addition to her culinary pursuits, Sophia also works for a local foster care agency, where she is involved in supporting and advocating for children. Sophia desires to combine her love for cooking with her commitment to supporting local children in need. When you choose Liv and Julz, you're not just purchasing a product; you're joining us on a journey of flavor and community. Thank you for being a part of our story.
