I am seeing a FreshJaxĀ® product for sale at a lower cost on a different website. Is this legitimate?

No. Unfortunately, there are a LOT of scams happening right now. If you see FreshJaxĀ® spices advertised on social media or elsewhere for a lower price (even by a few cents), please report the ad or listing as a scam to the relevant platform and report it to us at hello@freshjax.com to help us with our scam take downs. Do not give your money to any seller unless you have first verified the seller is a legitimate source.


How can I find out if a seller is legitimate?

If the price is lower than ours, the seller is not legitimate. If a price is unusually high, then it may be a legitimate seller, but could be a case of price gouging. If you have further questions, please feel free to contact us.


ļ»æWHAT MAKES FRESHJAX SPICES UNIQUE?

FreshJaxĀ® spices are handcrafted in small batches using only pure, organic spices, herbs, and salts. Each bottle contains 100% real food. You won't find any fillers, anti-caking agents, MSG, dyes, chemicals, or anything artificial inside. This gives FreshJaxĀ® spices their delicious flavor and means you can feel good about using them.


ļ»æHOW DO I USE FRESHJAXĀ® SPICES?

FreshJaxĀ® spices are designed to be easy to use. You can use them in your food while cooking, grilling, sauteing, or baking. They can also be sprinkled on top of food that has already been prepared. We always leave a few on the kitchen table. Toasted Onion is one of my go-to spices for this. You can also browse our collection of recipes to find inspiration!


ļ»æDO YOU OFFER LARGER BOTTLES?

Yes! If you've got a glass bottle in our regular size, you can find many of your favorite spices in large bottles here. Large bottles are equal to four regular size bottles. If you're a super fan of a particular flavor, a caterer, or a restaurant owner, we've got you covered too. Please fill out our wholesale form if you're interested in buying spice blends in bulk.

ļ»æHOW LONG ARE FRESHJAXĀ® SPICES GOOD FOR?

Spices are typically* good for about four years. After this time, they begin to lose their flavor and you'll need to use more of them to get the same taste. You'll find a date stamped onto each bottle of FreshJaxĀ® spices that you can use as a guide. A good rule of thumb for any spices in your cabinet is to open the lid and smell them. If you they don't have much of a smell, there's a good chance they won't have much flavor either.

*FreshJaxĀ® Coconut Curry tastes best when used within one year.


ļ»æHELP! MY SPICES ARE STUCK IN THE BOTTLE.

Spices can become stuck for a few reasons. Because we don't use any anti-caking agents, the natural stickiness of spices like onion and garlic can cause them to stick together a bit in the bottle. Just give the bottle a shake or use a toothpick to get your spices flowing again. Another reason for stuck spices is sprinkling them directly over food that's cooking on the stove top. Steam from cooking can begin to re-hydrate dried spices and cause them to stick together. Try sprinkling the spices into a measuring spoon or the palm of your hand when food is steaming.


ļ»æWHERE ARE YOU LOCATED?

FreshJaxĀ® spices are handcrafted in Jacksonville, FL. Our spice kitchen is not open to the public. We happily send spices right to your door. Shipping prices vary based on location and order amount. Currently, we offer free shipping for orders over $50.Ā
