Ordering & Minimums

What is the minimum order quantity?

Minimum quantities vary by product. Chocolate business cards start at 50 units. Branded gift boxes and hospitality packages typically start at 12–24 pieces. Personal gift orders can work at smaller quantities — tell us your occasion and we’ll find the right fit.

Can I place a one-off order for a personal gift?

Yes. Personal gift orders, including chocolate roses and custom gift sets, work at lower minimums than corporate or event programs. Request a quote with your occasion and we’ll come back with options that suit your quantity.

Do you offer ongoing or replenishment orders?

Yes. Hospitality properties, hotels, and businesses with recurring gifting programs can set up standing orders or periodic replenishments. We plan around your season and keep your design on file to make reordering straightforward. Mention your ongoing needs when requesting a quote.

What occasions do you design for?

We design for corporate gifting, client and employee recognition, charity galas and donor gifts, hospitality welcome amenities, weddings and private celebrations, trade shows and conferences, and personal occasions like Valentine’s Day and anniversaries. If your occasion isn’t listed, send us a brief — we’re happy to talk through what’s possible.

Design & Proof

Will I see a proof before production starts?

Yes. For all custom logo work we prepare a digital proof showing your logo and brand colors applied to the chosen product. Nothing goes into production without your explicit sign-off. We revise until you’re happy — this is standard, not an add-on.

Can you match our brand colors and logo exactly?

Yes. We work from your logo files and brand guidelines to match colors, typography, and visual style as closely as the medium allows. Chocolate is a natural material with its own surface texture and tonal range, so we’ll always walk you through what translates beautifully and what we recommend adjusting — before anything goes into production.

What file formats do you need for my logo?

Any format works at quoting stage — even a low-resolution PNG from your website is enough to get started. For the production artwork, vector files (.ai, .eps, .svg) give us the cleanest results. High-resolution PNG or PDF (300 dpi or higher) also work well. If your file needs preparation we’ll let you know before charging anything.

Can you create artwork from scratch if I don’t have design files?

We can work from a rough idea, an existing business card, or a description of your brand. For complex custom illustrations or from-scratch branding work, we’ll let you know if additional design time applies. Most straightforward logo applications are included in the project cost.

Production & Timeline

How long does production take?

Standard orders ship within 7–14 business days from proof approval. Orders that include a new custom proof add 2–3 business days before production begins. Rush production is available for tighter timelines — always mention your event date when requesting a quote so we can confirm availability from the start.

Can you accommodate a rush order?

Rush production is available depending on current capacity. We’ll always tell you honestly whether a timeline is achievable — we won’t rush something that will compromise quality. Mention your event date at the quoting stage and we’ll confirm availability before you commit.

What is a sample box and how does it work?

A sample box lets you evaluate chocolate quality, packaging, and logo finish in hand before placing a full order. It’s the best way to be confident in the product before committing to a large quantity. The cost of your sample box is credited toward your first project over $500.

Pricing

How is pricing determined?

Pricing is based on product type, quantity, packaging complexity, and whether the order requires new custom artwork or uses an existing design. Larger quantities reduce the per-unit cost. We provide tiered pricing in every quote so you can see the difference quantity makes before deciding.

Is there a setup or artwork fee?

Most straightforward logo applications are included in the project cost. For complex custom illustrations, multi-layer designs, or from-scratch artwork, we’ll advise upfront if additional design time applies — always before you commit.

Do you require a deposit?

Yes. We typically require a deposit before production begins, with the balance due on completion. Payment terms are confirmed in your project proposal. We accept major credit cards and bank transfer.

Shipping & Delivery

Do you ship nationwide?

Yes. We design and produce from Los Angeles and ship to all 48 contiguous states. Chocolate is temperature-sensitive, so we use insulated packaging and select carriers and shipping speeds based on your delivery location and the time of year. We’ll confirm the best shipping method when your order is ready.

How do you handle shipping in warm weather?

During summer months and warm-weather periods we use additional insulation, gel packs, and faster shipping windows to protect the chocolate in transit. We build this into the timeline and cost automatically — you don’t need to ask for it.

Can you ship directly to a venue or multiple addresses?

Yes. We can ship to a venue, a hotel, multiple office locations, or directly to individual recipients for corporate send-outs. Mention the delivery requirements when requesting a quote and we’ll include it in the proposal.

What if my order arrives damaged?

Contact us as soon as you receive the order. We’ll ask for photos of the damaged pieces and packaging, assess what happened, and make it right. Our insulated packaging is designed to prevent damage, but if something does go wrong we stand behind the product.
