FAQs

We do sell wicker dip chillers, but because of the handmade nature and the different variations of our dip chillers, we only sell them in person at our store Coming Home in Sanford, FL. 

If kept in a cool, dark locatioin, our dip mixes have a shelf life of approximately two years from the date of purchase. Since our dip mixes are made of dried spices, they do not spoil, they start to lose their strength.

Once our dip mixes are made, you can keep them in the refrigerator for two weeks. Of course, if your sour cream, mayonnaise, cream cheese, or Cool Whip is expiring before that, your dip will expire sooner as well.

We’re glad you asked!

• Follow the directions on the label. The exact directions for how we made our sample are on the back of the label in the upper left hand corner.
• Use the ingredients we suggest under the question, “What brand of ingredients do you recommend?”
• Refrigerate your dip for at least two hours, and overnight would even be better. We make our samples every Tuesday, so when you tasted our sample, it had been refrigerated for around four days!
• Use mayonnaise. If the directions call for mayonnaise, do not use Miracle Whip.
• Use softened cream cheese. If the directions call for cream cheese, make sure that you soften it before using it. For an 8-ounce block of cream cheese, place the completely unwrapped cheese on a microwave-safe plate and microwave it on high for 15 seconds.
• Blend dip + cream cheese first. If the directions call for cream cheese, blend the dip mix with the cream cheese, before you add any other ingredients.
• Thaw Cool Whip. If the directions call for Cool Whip, make sure to thaw the Cool Whip in the refrigerator before using. Place unopened tub in refrigerator for 4 hours. Do not stir. For best results, do not thaw Cool Whip on countertop or in microwave. Excessive stirring or heat will cause product to soften and become watery.
