Summer Shipping

OUR SUMMER SHIPPING RATES ARE IN EFFECT AS OF MAY 13, 2026.

Getting your chocolate gift to its destination in perfect condition is THE goal.  We now use UPS for the majority of our destinations, unless the address is a P.O. Box.

We ship early in the week to avoid weekend transit days.  For two day destinations, if your order is placed after Wednesday, it will ship the following Monday. We will delay shipping if there is a big heatwave, and will advise you of the delay. 

Should you wish to ship overnight to a state that isn't available once we restrict our shipping map, please get in touch so we can provide a quote.  As with all our shipping rates, you will benefit from our large UPS discount, but it will still be between $50 and $90 depending on weight and distance.

We do not ship to Hawaii during the summer months, unless we do it overnight, see above regarding a quote.

Our Summer shipping rates:

New England shipping:  $17, one to two days via UPS. 

CT, MA, ME, NH, RI, VT. Insulated packages with ice as needed.

Mid-Atlantic: $19, two days. 

NJ, NY, PA, Insulated packages with ice as needed.

South, Midwest and West:  $34, 2 Day Air via UPS.

All other states.  All packages shipped to these regions will be insulated with an ice pack.  We will restrict the map as the temperatures go higher: by mid June, we will only ship to New England and the three mid-Atlantic states.

FOR YOU TO DO: 

Better no surprise than chocolate soup!  Please tell your recipient a gift is coming and to bring it inside right away.  No package, even with insulation/ice packs, will resist hours in the hot sun or hot mailbox.
