☀️ Summer Shipping (May through October)
During warmer months, we ship only to cooler regions—primarily Anchorage and nearby cities.
- Please check your local weather forecast.
- If the daytime high exceeds 65°F, we recommend waiting until temperatures cool.
- (Sadly, this means we can't ship to Hawaii in summer. But our Hawaiian friends can still send sweet gifts to loved ones in the other 49 states!)
🚚 Shipping Details
- We use FedEx 2-Day Service exclusively.
- Flat shipping fee: $24.90
- Orders are shipped ASAP, typically within two business days.
🍫 Handling & Delivery
Because our chocolates are temperature-sensitive:
- Do not leave them outside or in a mailbox—especially in warm weather.
- Please provide a delivery address where someone can receive the package directly.
- If the destination is warm, we’ll include an ice pack.
- To avoid weekend delays, we ship only on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday.
- To ensure Wednesday shipping, please place your order by Monday or Tuesday.
If the forecasted high temperature at the destination exceeds 65°F, we may need to cancel and refund your order—sometimes, even ice packs aren’t enough.
📦 Notifications & Contact
- You’ll receive an email with tracking info from FedEx or USPS.
- Please include the sender’s mobile number so we can reach out if needed.
🥚 Egg-Free & Shelf-Stable
Our chocolates contain no eggs, so they can be stored at room temperature (below 75°F) for 2–3 weeks without noticeable changes.
- Above 75°F, they may gradually lose their glossy finish.
- Cocoa butter helps preserve their striking beauty best at under 70°F.
