We accept Visa, Mastercard, Shop Pay, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and other secure payment options shown at checkout. All payments are processed securely through Shopify.

Can I change or cancel my order after placing it?

If you need to make a change, contact us as soon as possible. Once an order has been prepared or dispatched, changes or cancellations may not be possible depending on exactly what you ordered.

Yes, we offer digital gift cards that are delivered by email. Gift cards can be used across our store and do not expire. They are non-refundable and cannot be exchanged for cash.

How are your products made?

All our chocolates and dessert products are made fresh in small batches using high-quality ingredients. Because of this, slight variations in appearance are normal and part of what makes our products special.

Shipping & Delivery

How long does it take to process and ship my order?

Orders are usually processed and shipped within 2–3 business days. We do not ship on Thursdays or Fridays to avoid products sitting in depots over the weekend.

What shipping options do you offer?

We offer Standard, Express, and Express Insulated shipping. Express and Express Insulated are strongly recommended, especially in warmer weather.

Do you ship during hot weather?

Yes, but we take extra precautions. During warmer days, we use protective packaging and offer Express Insulated shipping with ice packs. Please note that ice packs help reduce heat exposure but are not a guarantee against melting.

Will you ship my order if the weather is very hot?

Depending on temperatures, we may delay shipping to protect your order. We always aim to ship at the safest possible time and will display notices on our website if delays occur.

What can I do to reduce the risk of melting?

We recommend choosing Express or Express Insulated shipping, placing orders early in the week, avoiding Authority to Leave, and checking your local weather forecast before ordering.

Returns, Refunds & Issues

Do you accept returns?

Because our products are perishable and made fresh, returns are only accepted in limited circumstances. Please refer to our Returns & Refunds Policy for full terms.

When can I request a return or refund?

You may request a return or refund if your order arrives faulty, damaged, incorrect, or missing items. Requests must be made within 7 days of delivery and approved before any item is returned.

Are refunds available for melted chocolates?

No. Refunds are not available for melted items, parcels returned due to incorrect addresses, or parcels not collected in time. We strongly recommend Express or Express Insulated shipping during warm weather.

What should I do if I receive the wrong item or something is missing?

Please email us within 7 days of delivery with your order number, a description of the issue, and clear photos where applicable. We’ll investigate and resolve it as quickly as possible.

What happens if my parcel is returned or uncollected?

Refunds or replacements are not available for uncollected or incorrectly addressed parcels. If your parcel is returned to us, we can resend it at standard delivery rates. Please note that resent items are sent at your own risk due to potential heat exposure while in transit.
