    Frequently asked questions

    What can I use on the rice cake besides Nutella?

    Peanut butter would also work well. If you are dealing with peanut allergies, then you can substitute sunflower butter.

    How do you store these monkey snacks cakes?

    Due to the nature of rice cakes, they typically will not store well when decorated. I would make these when you are ready to serve them.

    Do your kids love cooking?

    I have long been a proponent of cooking with kids. There are so many things kids learn helping out in the kitchen. Math, reading, chemistry, cooperation and more are used while following a recipe.

    Raddish is a monthly subscription box for kids that is a cooking club, culinary lesson, and mealtime solution all-in-one. Young children get to work with an adult, while older kids and teens independently indulge their culinary curiosity! And it’s perfect for picky eaters — kids who cook, eat!

    ​A new kit is delivered to your doorstep every month!

    Each kit features a new culinary theme! You’ll also get a shopping list emailed to you prior to delivery so you will be ready to cook. These kits are a great way for kids to develop new cooking skills and confidence in the kitchen while the entire family builds memories together. Find out more here.
