Yes it is made up from the dripping from the ducks they cook much the same way as you would do at home, but on a greater scale.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duck_sauce
Duck sauce is an orange-hued Chinese American condiment used in Chinese American cuisine as a dip for deep-fried dishes, such as spring rolls, egg rolls, noodles, and deep-fried chicken balls. Duck Sauce is likely an American invention, as it is virtually unknown in authentic Chinese cuisine. It is made from sweet plums or other fruit such as peach or apricot, sugar, vinegar, ginger, and chili pepper.

Yes, and if they put the duck in the blender under a faster setting it becomes "duck juice".
