Delivery Times:
​
We hand make everything at Josephine’s Chocolate, so standard delivery can take up to 2-5 days to dispatch, but we always aim to send it sooner when possible.
​
Your order will be sent by Royal Mail, first class, and should arrive within 1-2 days of being dispatched to Mainland UK, or up to 5 days to UK Islands or Northern Ireland.
​
If you select Express Delivery and order before 12pm, your order will be dispatched the next day. Items sent by Express Delivery will be sent First Class Signed For, so you will need to ensure somebody is home to sign for your package on arrival.
For Guaranteed Saturday Delivery order before 12pm on Thursday, chocolates will be posted on Friday guaranteed for Saturday Delivery. Please remember there must be someone there to sign for your package.
​
Missed Delivery:
​
Should delivery to the address not be possible, a card should be left by Royal Mail to let you know how you can collect the parcel or how to arrange re-delivery. It then becomes the recipient's responsibility to arrange a suitable re-delivery date. We accept no liability if delivery is not made due to the recipient not being available, or if goods become unsuitable as a result of non-delivery.
