Seasonal Considerations
During the summer months, the temperatures throughout the United States create an additional challenge for the successfull shipment of fine chocolates. To ensure that your chocolate arrives in the fine condition you expect, an insulation layer and an ice pack are placed within each parcel.
From May to September, available shipping options include 2nd Day or Next Day Air ONLY. Ground shipping is only available to orders shipping within New York State.
From October through April, available shipping options include Ground (excluding "warm weather states"); 2nd Day; or Next Day Air. Options for shipment to "warm weather states" include 2nd Day and Next Day Air.
"Warm Weather States" include AL, AR, AZ, CA, FL, GA, LA, MS, NM, NV, SC, TN and TX.
Please refer to the chart below for shipping charges and availability. When shipping to "warm weather states" and when shipping during warm weather months, rates include cost of insulation and ice packs.
