Addison Osta Smith assumes executive chef duties at an NYC restaurant
to bring melty VELVEETA goodness to the masses

CHICAGO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–VELVEETA® Mini Blocks are the mini-est, meltiest innovation from
iconic American brand VELVEETA since its inception in 1928. They deliver
VELVEETA’s classic Liquid Gold taste and melt…now in a convenient
smaller size. To introduce Mini Blocks, VELVEETA is enlisting a “Mini
Chef,” Addison Osta Smith, to take the reins at a bustling Manhattan
kitchen under a new name, “Melt,” and bring cheesy VELVEETA goodness to
the masses.


“People know me from Master Chef Junior for my fancy desserts and
miso-glazed cod, but when I’m at home with my family, we like to keep it
fun and easy,” says Addison Osta Smith, award-winning chef and playtime
and sports enthusiast. “VELVEETA Mini Blocks are the easiest way to add
amazing flavor to our everyday dinners.”

Today VELVEETA is transforming Blank
Slate Coffee + Kitchen
, located at 121 Madison Avenue, into “Melt”
to serve up complimentary versions of award-winning “Mini Chef”
Addison’s three signature VELVEETA Mini Block dishes – Cheesy Bacon
Risotto, Cheesy Pulled Pork Taquitos and Cheesy Potato Waffles – to the
public from 2-4pm. VELVEETA fans nationwide can recreate Addison’s
cheesiest, meltiest recipes at home by visiting VELVEETA.com.

One Ingredient. Endless Gold. VELVEETA Mini Blocks are
perfect for satisfyingly cheesy dishes such as loaded
baked potatoes
, mini
taco bowls
, and spicy
bacon and spinach sliders
. Each carton contains five 4oz.
individually wrapped Mini Blocks, so families can easily incorporate
Liquid Gold into everyday meals and side dishes, while unused blocks
stay wrapped and sealed until ready to use.

“It is common knowledge that VELVEETA makes an amazing dip and mac &
cheese, but what a lot of people don’t realize is that it’s also the
cheesy answer to hundreds of dinner solutions,” says Jamee Pearlstein,
Brand Manager for VELVEETA. “Addison is the perfect mini chef to help us
launch these pre-portioned mini blocks, because they help chefs of all
ages make a great-tasting meal.”
