Cupcake Product CareUpdated 8 months ago

Here are our best tips for safe transport and storage of our products to minimise the risk of a less than perfect experience. 

• BV Cupcakes are fragile and perishable items.
• Without refrigeration, cupcakes need to be stored in a cool (airconditioned office is fine) dry location out of direct sunlight and are best consumed within 24 hours.
• The shelf life can be extended for a week with refrigeration, but should be done in the packaging we provide or a sealed container (decor, sistema, etc).
• Cupcakes can be frozen for up to 3 months.
• Any decorations packed separately for your order should be stored in a cool dry location.

When holding/walking with the product:

• Avoid tilting the product (don't swing any bag!).
• Avoid resting the product on your body, the box may start to bend in and damage the product.
• Avoid bumping the product into anything or dropping/placing on a surface harshly.
• Avoid direct sunlight through the box window.
• If a warm day or travelling far, consider placing cupcakes in the fridge before any extended transport. Cupcakes should always remain refrigerated till serving.

Here are suggestions to consider for vehicular transport of our products:

• When in vehicle transport, place front passenger on the floor, or hold with cool air-conditioning on.
• Do not store on a car seat if the box is tilting.
• Avoid unconditioned areas like the boot.
• Avoid fast deceleration or acceleration and going around corners quickly - the cupcakes feel your G forces!
• Speed bumps, pot holes can also cause the product to be displaced.
• Do not leave the product unattended in a car not airconditioned and/or in the sun - the product will melt.
