But when people kept asking for pint-sized portions for their freezer at home, the firm complied by launching a Web-based business.

The paper-based containers and lids are supplied by Stanpac,  and for now the filling is done mostly by hand. The pressure-sensitive labels (usually applied by hand), are from WS Packaging Group. Printed digitally in four colors, the label stock is a white BOPP with a freezer-grade adhesive.
