Storage & Usage FAQs
How should ThicKups be stored?
Our ice cream products should be stored frozen at 0°F (-18°C) or below. Thawed portions
should be consumed within a safe time frame and not refrozen.
Can ThicKups be used in therapy or rehabilitation settings?
Absolutely. Speech-language pathologists can use ThicKups as part of dysphagia therapy to target swallowing while maintaining patient enjoyment. This is the benefit of having a product created and clinically tested by licensed medical speech-language pathologists. We want to give our fellow medical SLPs the confidence they need to use our products with their dysphagia patients.
Sustainability & Ethics FAQs

All of our products are proudly manufactured in North Carolina using high-quality
ingredients and food-safe practices. FDA compliant and NCDA & CS compliant.
