What does it mean if a chocolate is on pre-order or made to order?

Sometimes we make products available for pre-order before they are launched. Other products can only be made to order.

Do you offer overnight shipping?

For orders within the USA only, we are able to offer FedEx Overnight express courier service for $30. Cut off time is 8am Mountain Time but if you miss this by a small window please give us a call or send us a message and sometimes we can still dispatch the same day.

What can I do if my chocolate arrived damaged (broken, discolored or melted)?

We’re sorry about this. We’ve spent a great deal of time and resources trying to figure out the best possible way to protect your chocolate during shipment, but our system is not perfect. A broken bar can still be enjoyed but we understand this can be disappointing and you are entitled to file an insurance claim should you wish.

What is the cut-off time for same day shipping?

For orders to the USA or Canada, 8am Mountain Time. For orders to all other countries, 9am Ecuador time. We ship Monday to Friday excluding public holidays in USA or Ecuador.

When will an out of stock item be available again?

We harvest cacao and produce our chocolate according to harvest years. Some of our editions are aged. All of our editions are limited in production and often quickly sell out. Once a particular edition is sold out we may release it again with more age (for example as a 2 year, 3 year+ edition) if we have inventory.

How long does it take to receive my order?

Orders to the USA typically arrive within 3-4 days for standard USPS shipping or faster with FedEx express options. Orders to Canada and Europe typically arrive within 4-5 business days. Orders to the rest of the world may take up to 7 business days.

When will my order be shipped?

We ship orders around mid-morning Monday to Friday, excluding US public holidays. There are some cases which may result in a delay, such as the need to validate import requirements for food in your country or hot weather on route or at the destination. We do our best to advise you if there is going to be a delay.

What is your Summer Shipping Policy (US Orders Only)

During the warmer months (typically Jun-Sep), most orders will ship from Monday through Wednesday so that they arrive before the weekend. This makes it easier for us to keep your chocolate cool during transit. If you need to rush your shipment, regardless of temperature, please write to us at hello@toakchocolate and we will do our best to get the shipment out that same day.
