gustologia WARM WEATHER SHIPPING
Warm weather is chocolate’s worst enemy, and we want to ensure you are receiving your chocolate in the best condition to indulge.
During the summer, we highly encourage shipping your chocolate to an address where someone will be able to receive the order immediately when it is out for delivery to avoid the chocolate melting if it is left outside in the sun.
Kindly be advised that no package will be shipped during a heat wave or high humidity. Please allow additional time, and be patient!
Despite the special care taken in packaging our parcels, temperatures above 22°C (72° F) can cause significant degradation of chocolate. We will include an ice pack to offset the heat (which will incur an extra cost), and therefore shipping will be slightly more expensive, also depending on weight.
Please note that we are not responsible for products damaged by heat in shipment.
Covid 19 SHIPPING DELAYS
Our shipping partners are experiencing various delays related to the Covid 19 pandemic. Although we actively monitor any delays, and we do our best to meet necessary delivery dates, but we cannot guarantee specific delivery dates. If you order has a firm delivery date, please contact our customer service at info@gustologia.ca to discuss options to ensure we meet your needs.
Return Policy SHIPPING DAMAGES
Should you experience any damage, please take images of the damaged chocolate (packaging and chocolate) and email us at info@gustologia.ca and we will access the situation. A replacement or refund request must be emailed within 24 hours of delivery.
