Shipping Advice For Sending Chocolates By Courier

What are my collection and delivery options when using a chocolate courier?

The shipping and delivery of chocolates must be handled with care to avoid melting. By choosing a reliable courier service to pick up your chocolates, you ensure your package arrives in the same same condition it was sent. When considering a suitable chocolate courier service, take into account the following:

  • Varieties and quantities of chocolates - carefully measure and weigh your chocolate to get your parcel measurements to find the best option.

  • Package them carefully - ensure your chocolates are in appropriate packaging that will prevent them from melting or getting damaged.

  • Delivery options - choose an appropriate delivery option – whether you want your book courier to deliver your items the next day, or if signed for delivery is important to keep your recipient updated.

  • Prohibited items - before you send your chocolates or related gift sets, check if they're allowed for shipping (view our list of prohibited items).
