        Hi Stephanie, and they will arrive the next day? If you pack them well with ice packs, I would think they would be ok. Tell them to smell them and make sure there is no odour before tasting. Let me know.

      This looks delicious! Do you use mascarpone cheese or regular cream cheese?

        Hi Despina I used regular (not light) cream cheese for this recipe. Hope you enjoy it. Have a great weekend.
