Warm Weather Shipping (May through September)

At Savannah’s Candy Kitchen, we take pride in delivering beautiful handmade candies and baked goods to you in pristine condition. During the warmer summer months, we ship our heat-sensitive products in coolers with dry ice to ensure you receive your products in the same condition that they departed our candy kitchen. Due to the additional packing materials and expedited shipping needed to ensure our products arrive to you in optimal condition, we ship your order in a cooler packed with dry ice for no additional charge.

The following products are considered especially heat-sensitive and will be packed with dry ice (see dry ice restrictions below):

All chocolate (except chocolate pralines)
All baked goods
All fudge

Apples must ship One-Day Express outside of the one-day Standard zone. Our chocolate caramel apples are very vulnerable to the heat and cannot survive a longer transit. During the warm weather, apples cannot ship on Fridays.

During the summer, we do not ship packages on Fridays. Orders placed after the cutoff time on Thursday will be delayed until Monday.
