AwesomeSauce is a secret pin that is awarded by Sony Computer Entertainment to members of the community that exude excellence and defy expectations. While the exact volume of necessary awesomeness is difficult to quantify, there is no doubt that this pin is the rarest of rare prizes in LittleBigPlanet 2, having been awarded to only twelve people to date.

History
Community Curator's Challenge
Two AwesomeSauce pins were awarded as prizes in the Move Madness contest at LittleBigWorkshop. The first was given to ScorpSkull on 22 November 2011 for an exceptional level employing the tools introduced in the Move Pack. The second was issued to Natuhito on 3 December 2011 for an impressive image created with the Paint tool.
LittleSigPlanet
It was announced on 9 April 2012 that AwesomeSauce pins would be given to the creators of LittleSigPlanet: bagheadinc, bludhound, and Tyler_stewart. Their website generates lovely banners with which users may fashionably promote levels on community fora.

LBP Hub
LBP Hub, an iPhone app which accesses and improves upon LBP.me, was released on 31 August 2012. Community Coordinator Steven Isbell subsequently tweeted that the app's developer, John Holtkamp (a.k.a. amazingflyingpoo), was the first person to be "more awesome than Awesomesauce... Looks like we need a new Pin". This implies that he would have been awarded the AwesomeSauce pin for LBP Hub if he had not already received it by means of the Pocket Moon Podcast. Instead he been given opportunity to choose who will get the pin, he choose ShadowriverUB was rewarded for sparking the idea, as well as creation of LittleBigAudio and his LBPWiki contribution.
