Orders requiring 2 day shipping are ineligible for shipping on Friday. The orders will ship the following Monday (or the next eligible business day in cases of holidays).

Residential Deliveries

We recommend that you ship your gift to a business address rather than a residential address. Shipping to a business address is not only cheaper but doing so ensures that the package will reach a person and packages are generally left in climate controlled areas. If you are unable to ship to a business address, please consider the following:

• UPS will leave packages at the front door without a signature. In extreme heat conditions, the cookies will melt. Please be sure you are not shipping to a residence where a package may be left outside for an extended period. Our cookies are shipped freshly baked and cannot endure an extended period exposed to heat, direct sunlight, or inclement weather. Be sure to advise the recipient of the delivery date. If necessary call 215 625 9870 or email [email protected] to arrange for a different delivery date. If you are not sure if your gift recipient will be home, UPS offers a “signature required” option for an additional $4 so that your gift will arrive directly to its recipient.
• UPS does not allow delivery to Post Office Boxes.
• UPS requests a phone number for delivery. Please make sure you enter the correct phone number of your gift recipient to ensure efficient delivery.

Address Corrections

Before entering your order, make sure your recipient’s gift address is correct. UPS charges an additional $14 for address corrections once shipped.

Universities and Hospitals

When shipping a gift to a University or Hospital, please make sure you provide the complete mailing address. For University delivery, your information must include the name of the dorm facility, the room number, the street address and any special delivery instructions that the dorm facility requires. For Hospital delivery, the patient’s name, room number, department, floor, hospital name and address are required. A delivery phone number is also requested for both universities and hospitals.
