We have many shipping options to choose from. Flat rate, ground and express, depending on how fast you need your candy.

1. Flat rate depending on your location is normally the best rates, however it can take anywhere from 6 – 10 business days to arrive. Your package will start off with FEDEX then when it gets to your state it is handed off to the Post Office. The post office makes the final delivery.

Please note: To be able to use the flat rate option you must have local postal delivery to your home. Some rural area’s do not have daily mail delivery available for your area if this is the case please call us and we will see what we can do.

2. Ground shipping will be Fedex. The shipping fees are set by Fedex and normally is a little bit more to ship.. The fees are based off the ship to location and the weight of your purchase. Best part of ground is you will get your order quicker then if selecting the flat rate shipping. Normally orders are received in approximately 5 business days once shipped. Ground shipping methods are only available for order shipping to the states. This is not an option for PR, AK, HI, Military or international order – these orders will need to be shipped Priority Mail.

3. Express shipping will get your order to you in one or two days depending on what service you pick. Once again the shipping fees are based off the ship to location and the weight of your purchase and are determined by Fedex.
