  • Once a custom chocolate logo mould has been created, there is no minimum for future chocolate-logo orders.
What if I need to cancel or change my order?

If you need to cancel or make changes to your order, please contact us immediately. Once an order is placed, it begins moving through our fulfillment process quickly, so changes or cancellations cannot be guaranteed. However, we’ll do our best to accommodate your request if the order hasn’t yet shipped.

Can you accommodate last-minute orders?

Availability depends on the products, quantity and requested delivery or pickup date. Contact a Business Gifting Specialist to confirm availability.

Can I reorder a previous custom gift?

Yes. Custom chocolate logo moulds are kept on file, allowing you to reorder your existing logo without paying another setup fee. Log in to your account or contact a Business Gifting Specialist for additional assistance.

How far in advance should I place my order?

Standard orders generally require one to two business days for processing but may take up to five business days during peak seasons. Personalized orders require additional production time:

  • Existing chocolate logos: 5-10 Business Days
  • New chocolate logos: 3-4 Weeks
  • Custom labels: 3 Business Days
  • Custom bar wrappers: 10 Business Days

Turnaround times may be longer during peak seasons. Please contact our Business Gifting department for more information.

Custom Gifting Options

What personalization options are available?

Business gifts can be personalized with a custom chocolate logo, custom label or custom chocolate bar wrapper.
Depending on the option selected, you can include your company logo, a greeting, a special message or an occasion-specific design.

Can you create our company logo in chocolate?

Yes. Your logo or design can be made into a polycarbonate mould used to create your chocolate logo. New custom logos have a one-time setup fee of $295.

How long does it take to have a new custom chocolate logo mould created?

New custom logo moulds require approximately three weeks for processing and production. Turnaround times may vary during peak seasons.

Is there a minimum order for custom chocolate logos?

Once your custom mould has been created, there is no minimum order quantity. You may order as few or as many chocolate logos as needed.

What file types can I submit for my custom logo?

Vector files are preferred, including PDF, EPS or TIF files. High-resolution JPG, BMP, PNG and PSD files are also accepted. For the best results, use a sans serif font that is at least 10 points and avoid fine details, very small text or decorative fonts.

Please review our Custom Logo Artwork Tips for additional information.

Will I receive a proof before my custom items are produced?

Yes. A digital proof is typically sent within one to two business days. Your approval is required before a custom mould is created or custom labels and wrappers are printed.

How much do custom labels cost?

Custom labels have no setup fee and cost 50¢ per item. A minimum order of 25 units of the same item is required.

How quickly can an order with custom labels be completed?

Custom labels are the quickest personalization option. When added to a standard, non-custom item, an order may be ready for shipping or pickup in as little as three business days. Turnaround times may vary during peak seasons.

Can I create custom chocolate bar wrappers?

Yes. Choose from pre-made templates or contact the Business Gifting Team about a fully customized design. You can select a foil color, add your message and upload your logo.

Can Canadian addresses be included in my uploaded list?

No. Canadian addresses cannot be imported through the online address-list tool. Call 1-800-255-7771 to place orders for Canadian recipients. Higher shipping rates, brokerage fees and taxes may apply.

Shipping & Store Pickup

Can I choose the date for my order to ship? 

Yes, you can choose the shipping date for your order during checkout. Please note that this is the date your order will leave our facility, not the date it will be delivered. Transit times will vary depending on the shipping method and destination.

Do you ship internationally? 

Sarris Candies is only able to ship to addresses in the continental U.S. and Canada. Special shipping rates apply to shipments going to Alaska, Hawaii and Canada. Higher shipping rates, fees and taxes may apply. Please contact us for more information.

How will my order be shipped/packaged to prevent melting? 

As temperatures fluctuate, we may hold your order if the state you’re shipping to is experiencing temperatures above 70°. During this time, orders are only shipped out Monday through Thursday. During warm weather months, orders will be packed in an insulated bag with ice packs and may require Expedited or Overnight shipping to prevent melting.

We guarantee that all orders will arrive in perfect condition when shipped with warm weather packaging. If there is an issue with your order, please contact us for more assistance.

Can I request a specific delivery date?

You may select shipping options based on your preferred arrival timeframe, but transit times are estimated and cannot be guaranteed unless otherwise indicated. Shipping times begin when the package leaves the Sarris Candies facility.

During November and December, orders are shipped “the week of.” Mondays are the only ship dates available to select at checkout; however, your order may ship on any day during the week you select.

Will I receive tracking information?

Yes. A shipment notification is sent when your order leaves the facility. For orders shipping to multiple addresses, the notification will initially include tracking for only the first address. Call 1-800-255-7771 to request tracking numbers for all recipients.

What happens if I submit an incorrect address?

Customers are responsible for reviewing recipient information before submitting an order. Sarris Candies is not responsible for incorrect addresses or returned packages, and additional charges may apply for corrections, redirects or reshipments.

Can you ship to P.O. boxes?

Yes. Orders can be shipped to P.O. boxes using USPS. Additional transit time may be required.

General Information

What is the shelf life of your candy?

The shelf life of our candy varies by product. Solid chocolate has a shelf life of up to two years, while most other items are best enjoyed within one year. Products that contain nuts are freshest when consumed within nine months. Please refer to the Best By date on the product packaging for optimal taste.

How do I read the Best By date on my chocolate? 

All of our products are marked with a six-digit Best By date in the format BBMMDDYY. (For example, BB123125 would indicate a Best By date of December 31, 2025.) We recommend enjoying your treats before this date for the best quality and freshness, however, with proper storage, your chocolate will remain edible past the Best By date.

How should I store my chocolate?

For the best results, store your chocolates in a cool, dry place—ideally around 60–70 °F—and away from direct sunlight, humidity, and strong odors. We don’t recommend refrigerating or freezing your chocolate, as this can affect its texture and appearance.

My chocolate is covered in a white film. Is it safe to eat?

The white film you see on your chocolate is known as “bloom,” and it’s perfectly safe to eat. Bloom can occur when chocolate is exposed to sudden temperature changes or stored in a humid environment, causing the cocoa butter or sugar to rise to the surface, creating a whitish or streaky appearance. While it may affect the texture and look of the chocolate, it doesn’t impact safety. Proper storage in a cool, dry place can help prevent bloom from occurring.

Allergen & Nutrition Information

Where can I find ingredients and nutritional information for a specific product?

Please contact us for ingredient and nutritional information.

Do you offer any kosher or halal products? 

At this time, we do not offer any products that are certified kosher or halal.

Is your plain milk chocolate gluten free?

Our plain milk chocolate does not contain gluten ingredients. However, it is produced in a facility that also processes products containing gluten, so we cannot guarantee that it is free from cross-contact.

Are any of your products nut-free? 

All Sarris Candies products are produced in a facility where nuts are present, and while we maintain rigorous cleaning and food safety standards, cross-contamination is still possible. Even the most thorough processes cannot completely remove the risk of trace allergens. For individuals with nut allergies, we recommend exercising caution when consuming our products.

Do you offer any sugar-free products? 

Yes, we offer a variety of sugar-free candies that are sweetened with maltitol, a commonly used sugar substitute. Maltitol provides the sweetness and texture of sugar but with fewer calories and a lower glycemic impact, making it a popular choice for those managing their sugar intake. Please note that, like other sugar alcohols, maltitol may cause digestive sensitivity in some individuals if consumed in large amounts.

Do you offer any products that are gluten-free?

Yes, we offer products that are gluten-free. Please note that these products are not certified gluten-free by a third-party organization, and they are produced in a facility where gluten is present. Customers with gluten sensitivities or allergies should use their best judgment when selecting products.

How much caffeine is in your chocolate?

The caffeine content in our chocolate varies by type. Our milk chocolate contains about 3 mg of caffeine per ounce, while dark chocolate contains around 14 mg per ounce. 
If your pet has consumed chocolate, please contact your veterinarian right away with the amount and type of chocolate involved.
