FAQ
What is the difference between BEST BY and EXPIRES/ USE BY?
“USE BY” or "EXPIRES" applies to the few products that are highly perishable and/or have a food safety concern within days following the expiry date; these products should be consumed by the date listed on the package and disposed of after that date.
Think items like bread, milk, yogurt, cheeses, butters, and non-preserved fruits.
“BEST BEFORE” (often interchanged with the phrase “BEST IF USED BY”) indicates the date the food is in its best quality. This is typically determined by the manufacturer of the product; however, it does not mean the item is unsafe to use beyond that point.
Most nonperishable cake items fall into this category including (but not limited to) fondant, gum paste, and food coloring.
Items in this category are not eligible for refunds, exchanges, or returns.
By purchasing from this category you acknowledge that these items are past their best by date
and are intended for decorative purposes only.
