Who doesn't love some good crab dip? I was thrilled to try Blue Crab Bay Company's Crab Dip kit because this company is known for their great seafood products! Their Crab Dip Kit is so easy to prepare, yet tastes like restaurant quality! The box contains a can of Bay Beyond Premium Claw Crabmeat and a precisely measured amount of crab dip blend. The blend is hand mixed and is a balanced combination of parsley, celery seed, garlic, cayenne, herbs and spices. All you need to do is soften 8 ounces of cream cheese and add 4 ounces of sour cream. Then you add the Crab Dip Blend until its creamy, then gently mix in the crabmeat. I served this dip with crackers as an appetizer before dinner one night and everyone raved about this dip! They couldn't believe that I made it myself from this amazing kit!
I love crabs. I love dip. When I saw the Crab Dip Kit by Blue Crab Bay Company, I knew what I was going to have my next favorite food. This is an appetizer that I know I'll have to make for my next game night. My friends all love seafood as well, so I know this will go off without a hitch. We love to try new dips and this will be one that I think will go over huge. We have some kind of dip for each game night and this will be one that will be included. Now to decide what kind of dipping agent I want to serve with it. I can't wait!

Blue Crab Bay Co.’s story
In 1984, Pamela Barefoot had a dream: to move to Virginia’s Eastern Shore and survive with her creativity. The rural coastal peninsula, bounded by the Chesapeake Bay and the Atlantic Ocean, offered a blank canvas for entrepreneurial opportunity, inspiring Barefoot to start her own business. Driving around the back roads in 1985, she envisioned items such as spice blends for clam and crab, two seafood species prevalent in the Chesapeake.
On the table in her farmhouse kitchen, she mixed seasonings and dreamed of specialties that would embrace the flavors of the region. That canvas began filling with all sorts of possibilities, including the creation of local jobs, raising awareness of the region’s natural resources, and getting her new homeland on the map. Not long after she began, she rented space above a waterfront restaurant and immediately experienced a devastating fire. She moved her fledgling business back home. Then Hurricane Gloria hit, causing significant damage.
Undaunted by the setbacks, Barefoot became more intent on realizing her vision. In 1986, she entered a contest in a national women’s magazine and wrote: “I envision someday having a multi-faceted operation … including mail order, wholesale regional foods, corporate gifts, and a retail shop.” Her entry netted an award of $7,500 and major national publicity.
Business steadily increased, and like the blue crab of its logo, the company experienced several moltings. Barefoot’s hard work paid off. In 1999, she was named Virginia’s Small Business Person of the Year, and in 2003 the U.S. Small Business Administration tapped her as one of the nation’s Outstanding Women Entrepreneurs.
Today, her Bay Beyond Inc., a Virginia certified Small, Women & Minority Owned business enterprise, markets the Blue Crab Bay Co.® brand, which features award-winners such as Sting Ray® Bloody Mary Mixer with Ocean Clam Juice; coastal themed snacks such as Barnacles® and Dune Buggies®; seasonings; seafood dip kits; and fishnet-wrapped gift packs. Product expansions include Blue Crab Bay Co. Stoneware by Dovis Designs©, which includes kitchenware, dinnerware, and serveware with a striking hand-painted blue crab motif; Bay Beyond® gourmet shelf-stable imported crabmeat; and Inner Ocean® nautical glycerin soaps, handmade with seaweed harvested from the Shore’s pristine marshes.
