Boxed Mac and Cheese

Boxed Mac and Cheese! We used to sell fresh hot baked mac and cheese casseroles made with creamy cashew cheese béchamel at our café, and everyone was so into it that we started selling just the sauce, to stash in your freezer whenever you need a creamy sauce made with real, high-quality, always-vegan ingredients. Now we’ve taken it a step further and put that delicious (and uh, suuuuuper labor-intensive) cheese sauce in our freeze dryer so we can offer it in handy packet form along with wheat or gf noodles. Our besties hemlock printers printed up a super eco package that Ericka designed and I (Lagusta, hiiiiii) wrote the letters for.  HOW CUTE ARE THEY! They’re $14 a box and I’m going to break down why. Each box is 2.5 servings. $5.60 a serving. I know that the supermarket non-vegan boxed mac is a lot cheaper. It’s, in fact, about the price of our boxes. Like, just the boxes. What the boxes cost us. They cost us about $1.75 each. All recycled, all eco inks. $1.75 each! The cheese sauce
