Frequently Asked Questions
Dietary & allergen info
If you're allergic to nuts, stay away from the Sauce & Spice — but the chai tea bags are safe for everyone!
How does delivery work?
We use 2–3 day delivery, so once we ship your order you should receive it within 2–3 business days. That's 2–3 days after we ship it, not after you place the order — Mum still works full time!
How long does it last?
Keep the sauce in the fridge — it lasts up to 4–6 weeks. The spice mix and chai tea bags last for a year.
Storage
Keep the sauce in the fridge and make sure the lid is closed properly. The spice mix and chai tea bags can be stored in a cool, dry place.
