Delivery and Returns
We understand that people don't like to wait for chocolate!
Orders under £100 = £3.99 standard delivery and £6.99 express delivery.
Order over £100 = FREE STANDARD DELIVERY
Shipping
- Orders will be carefully wrapped and dispatched within 3 working days of being received.
- Express deliveries will be prioritised, but as our chocolates are freshly made it is not always possible to dispatch orders faster.
- Standard shipping will be sent via a Royal Mail Tracked 48h service.
- Express shipping will be sent via a Royal Mail Tracked 24h service.
- Whilst Royal Mail aim to deliver within 24h/48h of dispatch (and this is usually the case) it is not a guaranteed service so occasionally it may take longer.
- A signature is not usually required.
- If you provide an email and/or mobile number when ordering you will receive tracking updates directly from Royal Mail. If they are unable to deliver an item to you (or a neighbour), you will receive a “you were out” notification. If a parcel is returned to us due to non-collection, postage will be charged to re-deliver your order.
Please note that delays in the service of Royal Mail are out of our control and we do not get any further tracking information than is provided to you directly. Here are a few FAQ's that may help you with any issues:
It's been 24/48h and my parcel hasn't arrived: If you haven't received your order within the tracking time frame we ask that you allow at least an additional 5 working days before you get in touch with us. Royal Mail will not allow us to process a 'lost parcel' enquiry until an order is 10 working days late, so your patience is appreciated. However, once 10 working days have passed if your order still hasn't arrived we will happily resupply your order and pick up a claim with Royal Mail directly.
The Royal Mail tracking hasn't been updated? If the tracking is showing your parcel is at your local depot, but isn't being updated it may be due to Royal Mail staffing issues in your local area. You may want to call your local depot as it may be possible for you to collect your parcel from them directly. Otherwise, please see above instructions on delays.
Tracking shows my parcel is delivered, but it's not! The tracker should include photographic evidence that clearly shows your door/address and the parcel. If this isn't the case please get in touch with us.
