awesomesauce

Better than great

Awesomesauce is slang expressing enthusiastic approval—something excellent, cool, or impressive.

It intensifies awesome with playful exaggeration, treating the quality like a condiment you could pour on: That concert was awesomesauce.

The word peaked in internet culture of the 2000s and now sounds dated or deliberately corny.
