“Best Crab Cakes”
-James Michener
Author of Chesapeake

Robert Morris Inn crab cakes are delivered fresh, and never have been frozen. Each crab cake comes individually wrapped in gold foil. Bake Fresh™ or Freeze Fresh™ when they arrive. We recommend best if used by two days fresh and two weeks frozen.

To Bake Fresh™ upon arrival crab cakes need to be removed from the shipper and placed in a refrigerator still wrapped in their foil. Within two days the crab cakes should be baked and eaten. All that is required to cook the crab cakes is to preheat an oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit, remove the foil from the crab cakes, place the crab cakes on a greased pan, and bake them on the center rack until lightly golden. Total cooking time is around twenty minutes. Some ovens may require broiling the last minute to achieve lightly golden. It is now time to eat and enjoy your crab cakes!

To Freeze Fresh™ upon arrival crab cakes should be removed from the shipper and placed in the freezer bag still wrapped in their foil. Remove excess air from the freezer bag and seal it. Now freeze the crab cakes. The Robert Morris Inn recommends best if used by two weeks for frozen crab cakes. Thaw the crab cakes before baking. Then just follow the Bake Fresh™ cooking instructions.

“If you wish to serve our crab cakes as appetizers you may divide them before baking. Then reform the half portions into smaller crab cakes. Total cooking time is reduced to about ten minutes.”
