FAQ
How is Evergreen different from other frozen breakfast brands?
As a working mom, our founder needed a quick and easy breakfast for her growing family but wasn’t willing to sacrifice nutrition, quality, or - importantly! - taste. She knew frozen waffles were a toddler favorite, so she started looking at “better-for-you” options in the frozen food aisle in grocery stores. When she couldn't find a brand that checked all of her boxes, she started developing her own recipe in her home kitchen.
She was determined to strip out all the “extras” so often found in processed foods. She was making the waffles for her family after all, including her toddler, so she cared deeply about what she was putting in them. Instead of artificial flavors or even “natural flavors,” she used real fruits, vegetables, nuts, and spices. Instead of refined wheat flour, she used whole grain wheat flour. Instead of refined sugar, she used maple syrup. Today, Evergreen's frozen breakfast lineup is available far beyond our founder's home - in major grocery chains and for delivery nationwide - but they still adhere to our founding principles.
Why is whole grain wheat important?
Most store bought frozen waffles and pancakes are made with enriched wheat flour, a process that strips much of the nutrients and vitamins that naturally occur in whole wheat. Evergreen waffles are made with only whole grain wheat flour rich with fiber and protein to keep you fuller longer (and promote a healthy metabolism), as well as vitamins like copper, magnesium, and zinc essential for both growing and grown bodies.

How are Thick & Fluffy Waffles different from Mini Waffles?
Thick & Fluffy Waffles are bigger, heartier, and toast up golden-crisp on the outside while staying soft and fluffy inside. Mini Waffles are smaller and softer with a muffin-like texture — perfect for little hands, snackers, and flavor-curious kids.
Anyone can enjoy either, but Minis shine at toddler breakfasts and snack time, while Thick & Fluffy satisfy big kids, tweens, teens, and hungry parents.
Are Evergreen products nut-free?
Evergreen's Mini Waffles contain nuts. Evergreen's Thick & Fluffy Waffles, Thick & Fluffy Pancakes, and Protein Waffles & Pancakes do not contain nuts and are made in a facility that does not currently produce any items that contain nuts. While that facility follows strict allergen controls, it is not certified nut-free. We recommend that anyone with a serious allergy consider consulting a medical professional on the risk specific to their circumstances.
What is the protein source in the Protein Waffles & Protein Pancakes?
Our Protein Waffles and Protein Pancakes get their protein from Greek yogurt and egg whites - not protein powders or isolates. When developing our protein line, we chose real, recognizable ingredients we'd feel good about serving our own families. It's all part of our commitment to creating breakfast that's convenient, delicious, and made with ingredients you can feel good about.
How are Evergreen products shipped?
Evergreen products are frozen for freshness and easy preparation. We ship with dry ice throughout the US. Upon arrival, leave any remaining dry ice in the box and put it outside or in a well-ventilated space to finish evaporating. Do not put it in a tightly closed container!
What if I don't love my Evergreen purchase?
All Evergreen purchases are backed by our 100% happiness guarantee. If you or your kids don't love the waffles or pancakes, we'll gladly swap flavors or provide a full refund with proof of purchase.
