The Delanda Cold-Chain Standard
To ensure your artisanal collection arrives in pristine condition, we utilize a meticulous thermal protection system. Every selection is
pre-chilled for 24 hours and hand-packed in refrigerated insulated housing with frozen thermal gel stones.
Boutique Shipping Schedule
To prevent your collection from resting in non-regulated facilities over the weekend, we depart our kitchen on Mondays and Tuesdays only.
​
-
Weekly Cut-off: To ensure your selection is prepared for the Monday/Tuesday departure, please finalize your order by Saturday at 11:59 PM.
-
Note: Orders placed after the Saturday deadline will be curated for the following week's shipment.
Curated Shipping Rates
We utilize a curated network of premier carriers (including USPS Priority, UPS, and FedEx) to ensure the swiftest and most reliable path from our hands to yours.

Additional Shipping Information
Real-Time Stewardship
We provide precise tracking for your convenience. Please retrieve your collection immediately upon arrival to avoid heat damage. Shipping to a business address is highly recommended to ensure a climate-controlled, indoor delivery.
PO Box Shipping
Due to the perishable and fragile nature of our craft, we do not ship to PO Boxes.
Delivery Integrity
While we make every effort to ensure the accuracy of all information, please verify your shipping address carefully before finalizing your purchase. Chocolates by Delanda is not responsible for transit delays or failed deliveries due to incorrect addresses provided by the guest.
Sales Tax
We collect applicable state and local taxes based on the destination of the shipment. Taxability of food and candy varies by state; shipping and processing will be taxed when the product is taxable.
