You'll love the new shakers!

And don't miss the desserts - one even has "amazing" in the name!


The Homemade Gourmet spring/summer product line is full of fresh, flavorful and fantastic seasonings, meals and recipes.

There are 13 brand-new mixes and 10 returning seasonal mixes in the line. Plus, we're really shaking things up by updating and improving the packaging on the categories of seasonings, dips and trios!

Updated, pantry-friendly packaging!

Forget that mess of floppy seasoning and dip mixes hidden in the back of your customers' pantries! We've implemented improved packaging in the seasoning, dips and trios categories and in an entirely new category - shakers! © The new seasoning and dip packaging features two individual plastic bags of product inside a box that stands up by itself. The box is in full, mouth-watering color and includes three recipes - the basic recipe, a 4 meals in 4 minutes™ "smoosh" meal and a third recipe. They're a better value! Now, two single-recipe sizes of Garlic Basil Seasoning, for example, cost $8.50 instead of $9. By the way, the product is sealed in a dated plastic bag so the box itself is not sealed, making it easy to check product "best by" dates.

© Five different trios are part of the new spring/summer line. These trios feature single-size bags of popular items from each category in a sampler-type box with a gabled top. Just like the double-pack boxes, these trio boxes are in full-color with recipes. They are perfect for customers who just can't choose between one mix or another, those who want to taste some of our most popular options and for gifts:

By the way, we normally we scale back the soups we offer in the Spring/Summer Product Catalog, but this year, we are dropping only two soups from the spring/summer catalog (Creamy Corn Chowder and Beef & Barley). Why? Northern states have a longer winter, therefore the demand for and interest in soup has a longer season than down South.
