CHATMAN J CAKES FAQs

WHAT DO I DO WHEN MY CHATMAN J CAKES ARRIVES?

All of Chatman J’s baked goods are shipped frozen.  When yours arrives, remove it from the shipping box and follow any of the options listed on the care instructions card in the box.  Chatman J’s baked goods can be thawed in the refrigerator overnight or on your kitchen counter for three hours. Remove the wrapping while it is still frozen and cover lightly with plastic wrap or wax paper.    Chatman j’s baked goods are best served at room temperature although the sweet potato cheese cake is best thawed in the refrigerator over-night and served chilled.

If you prefer, pies can be warmed.  Pies are intentionally baked so they can be served warmed  at 225 for up to 20 minutes for maximum taste.

 Chatman J’s baked goods are made with the freshest, natural ingredients and are at their best when stored in the refrigerator and eaten within a week.  If you prefer to keep yours frozen, place it in the freezer when it arrives.  It will stay fresh for a month.  BACK TO TOP
