Temperature-Sensitive Products

Our chocolate products are sensitive to heat. During warmer months we take reasonable care in packing, but we cannot guarantee against softening or cosmetic changes caused by high temperatures in transit. Such cosmetic changes do not affect the safety or quality of the product and are not considered defects.

Carriers

Orders are shipped through Bob Go, our shipping platform, which connects us with established South African courier services. The courier is selected according to your delivery address and the product ordered. Every shipment includes a tracking number so you can follow your parcel through to delivery.

Shipment Confirmation & Tracking

Once your order has been dispatched, you will receive a confirmation email containing your tracking number so you can follow your parcel through to delivery. You can also track your order at any time on our Track Your Order page.
