Why do you use dry ice?

Dry ice keeps our sauces frozen throughout shipping without added preservatives. It ensures your Little Rebels arrive just as they left our kitchen.

Is dry ice safe?

Yes. Dry ice is commonly used for shipping frozen food. It naturally turns from solid into gas and does not leave any residue. Please avoid direct contact and keep packages out of reach of children until unpacked.

What if the dry ice is gone when my box arrives?

That’s normal. Dry ice evaporates over time. As long as your sauces arrive frozen or cold to the touch, they are safe to refreeze and enjoy.

What if my order arrives thawed?

If your sauces arrive warm or fully thawed, please contact us within 24 hours with photos and we’ll make it right.

What ages are Little Rebels sauces for?

Everyone! We make them for little eaters ages 1 to 8, with real vegetables and simple ingredients in single-serve cubes. They're also a favorite with grown-ups, from empty nesters to anyone who doesn't want to open a whole jar of sauce.

How many cubes make one serving?

One cube is one serving of pasta. The right amount varies by pasta shape, so check the serving size on your pasta box.

How do I thaw a cube?

Microwave a cube for 30 to 45 seconds, then stir it into hot pasta for the perfect temperature. You can also thaw it on the stovetop, low and slow, for a few minutes. Don't heat it too high or for too long, or the sauce can curdle. We do not recommend thawing on the countertop.

How long does a thawed cube keep?

A thawed cube keeps in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Can I use the sauce for anything besides pasta?

Yes! We love it warm or hot as a pasta sauce, pizza sauce or dunking sauce, or spooned over chicken, steak or salmon. It's also great as a salad dressing or tossed into a cold pasta salad.

How long do the cubes keep in the freezer?

6 to 9 months.

Do the sauces contain allergens?

Cheesy Butternut Squash contains milk. Lil' Green Sauce contains milk and tree nuts (walnuts). Roasted Veggie Marinara contains no major allergens. All sauces are manufactured in a facility that also processes milk, eggs, fish, crustacean shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, soy and sesame.
