New Flash-Frozen Food Cubes Add Big Flavor To Home Cooked Meals

Crush Cubes launches new line of individually-sealed, pop & use herbs, butters, sauces, and seasonings

Westlake Village, CA – Crush Cubes, an innovative food company with a fresh take on the frozen food cube, is introducing a new lineup of flash-frozen, individually-sealed, pop-and-use herbs, butters, sauces and seasonings. Made in the USA with the finest quality, locally-sourced ingredients, Crush Cubes is perfect for today’s generation of busy, at-home cooks who crave the quality of a home-cooked meal but without the headache and hassle of peeling, chopping, measuring or mess. The products’ convenient design brings variety and ease to the kitchen and allows consumers to spend less time cooking and more time living. Simply pop and use! It’s that simple.

Crush Cubes’ flash-freezing process preserves the true taste, beautiful colors and powerful nutrients of every fruit, vegetable and premium ingredient sourced. No artificial flavors, colors or preservatives are ever used, each variety is all-natural, gluten-free and hormone-free, and one cube equals one teaspoon of fresh and wholesome ingredients. In addition, the product’s revolutionary packaging is designed to prevent freezer burn, resulting in an impressive shelf life. Available in trays of 24 quick-and-easy, perfectly portioned, ready-to-use cubes, Crush Cubes current offerings include:

  • Herbs: Garlic, Basil, Cilantro, Ginger, Parsley, Dill, Epazote, Shallots (all vegan!)
  • Butters: Garlic & Herb Butter, Maple Butter (Hormone free-no RBST!)
  • Sauces & Seasonings: Pesto, Teriyaki, Chicken (all-natural, no preservatives!)

“Freezing is nature’s purest preservative,” shared Crush Cubes founder and 30-year food veteran Jon Startz. “It captures the ingredient at the peak of its freshness. Our cubes make it easy for on-the-go cooks to add fresh, all-natural ingredients and bold flavors to their meals with little prep time, which means more time can be spent with the family and living life!” On a value front, the per serving cost is much lower than if you had to purchase the ingredients separately and there is no need to worry about certain herbs being out of season or produce going bad before you can use it. Crush Cubes: Crush to cook fresh!”

Crush Cubes can be used in poultry, meats, seafood, stir-fry, pastas, sauces, dips, salads, soups, omelets, stews, curries and more. The 3oz packages, which take up little space in the freezer, are available to retail customers nationwide for an SRP of $3.99 for the Herbs and Butters and $4.99 for the Sauces and Seasonings. The products are also available in bulk sizes for foodservice customers.

The company’s new lineup of herbs, butters, sauces and seasonings is just the beginning of Crush Cubes’ plans. Founder Jon Startz is working to take the frozen food cube category to uncharted territory with an introduction of rice seasonings, soup-er cubes, smoothie supplements, and beverage/cocktail cubes. With its own BRC certified plant in Westlake Village, Crush Cubes is a versatile, fast and flexible, low cost manufacturer that can fulfill custom wholesale orders.
