So, here's the thing... chocolate melts! Crazy, right? Shipping chocolate in temperatures over 70℉ can be tricky. Gygi will do our part by including cold packs in your shipment, but keep in mind that these cold packs only stay cold for about 24 hours.

We strongly recommend choosing the fastest shipping method possible, especially if shipping to the Midwest or East Coast. Not doing so may result in partially melted chocolate, this can compromise couverture chocolates ability to be tempered.

Also, consider placing your order at the beginning of the week to limit the amount of time your chocolate spends sitting in a warehouse or shipping truck.

Feel free to reach out to us with any questions regarding shipping, we are happy to help! After all, chocolate is life.
