Our Story

It all started with a bet. One bold claim that turned into a full-blown obsession: Larry could make the best pickles on the market. And if you’ve ever tried a Sour Snatcher or braved the Pickle Colada snow cone, you know—he wasn’t wrong.

Larry Garcia, the man behind the madness, was born and raised in Alice, Texas. Known back in the day as “Scary Larry”—a childhood nickname that stuck—Larry has always done things his own way. Quiet, intense, and dedicated to his craft, he turned that old nickname into a bold brand with even bolder flavor.

Scary Larry Pickles is more than a snack—it's an experience. Each jar, cup, or snow cone is handcrafted with attitude, combining wild flavor combos with creepy names that stick with you (just like the heat from our pickled habanero pineapple bites). Every recipe is rooted in tradition and rebellion—drawing inspiration from Larry’s grandmother Celia’s legendary pickle and salsa recipes, straight from her old-school cookbook.
