How to keep crispy food crispy in delivery

Crispy food loses its magic when trapped in steam. The trick is to manage moisture without letting food go cold.

Vent intentionally

Use containers that allow minimal venting for fried items. A tiny airflow path prevents sogginess.

Separate wet from dry

Pack sauces separately when possible. If they must touch, place sauce underneath and keep the crispy surface exposed.

Timing matters

Don’t fry too early. The last 5 minutes before dispatch often decide the customer’s first bite.
