Q:
What should I do with the dry ice in my box?
A: To ensure that your product
arrives frozen we ship with 5lbs. of dry ice. In most instances, the
dry ice will have evaporated or partially evaporated by the time you
receive the product. However, if your box does contain some dry ice,
do not touch the ice with your bare hands. Use tongs, insulated
(thick) gloves or an oven mitt and dispose of the ice outside. Do not
let dry ice evaporate in your home or in a confined space. Crack
windows open if the ice remains in your home for a period of time.
Keep out of reach of children and pets.

SERVING APPETIZERS AT ROOM TEMPERATURE
|
|
|
Q:
Can any of your appetizers be served at room temperature?
A: No, we do not recommend
serving our products at room temperature. If necessary, you can use a
chafing dish to keep appetizers warm during a party. But for best
results, serve straight from the oven.

|
Q:
Will the Appetizer Box Fit in a Standard Freezer?
A: Yes, our standard box size is
13x14x3". If you think that you may have difficulty fitting the boxes
in your freezer we recommend taking the product out of the box and
placing inside of freezer safe ziplock bags. You can also email us
special instructions for a specific delivery date and we will try our
best to accomodate you.

Q:
What are the cooking instructions for the appetizer products?
A: Cooking instructions vary for
each product and specific instructions are on each product box. Most

appetizers. They will lose their crispness and coatings may dehydrate
or warp. You should also remove all plastic trays before cooking and
line the baking sheet with parchment paper or non-stick spray to
prevent sticking. Don’t forget that all ovens vary in temperature; you
should adjust your oven accordingly and please watch the your
appetizers don't burn.

children touch the dry ice. Your box of appetizers will be surrounded
