If placing an order for a holiday event, we recommend a minimum of 10 days in advance. Holidays slots will run out quickly. For instance, to guarantee Christmas delivery, your order must be placed by no later than December 14th for standard shipping. Any order received between December 14th and December 18th must be upgraded to express shipping to guarantee delivery before Christmas.
If you need to add/remove a product, change the quantity, add a note, or change the shipping address, you should contact Customer Service immediately. Provided your order has not already been packed and/or left our facility, we will make every effort to accommodate your request.
We want you to love each product that is selected in our Bundles. If you have an allergy or a particular item that you do not want us to include in your order, please let us know after purchase by forwarding your confirmation email to customer support with your request. We can swap out any item but at this time we cannot change your order before purchase.
Just send us your request and we will handle it!
Due to high order volumes, we cannot process orders on the phone. However, we will accommodate special requests and can take orders via phone for wholesale items. Please note that orders taken via phone require an email address and phone number to process.
All perishable items should be stored at a temperature of 38F. Our shelf stable items (8oz Saucissons, Petits Salamis and Accompaniments) are safe to consume above this temperature. During the fall and winter months, you should not have this issue so do not worry!
- If your gel packs arrive melted but the inside of your box is still cool to the touch: the products are safe to eat.
- If you order during the spring and summer and the
inside of your package has completely melted and/or the contents are room temperature: discard your perishable items and immediately let us know!
