FAQs About Ordering, Shipping Policy & Returns

SEASONAL WEATHER EVENTS AND OTHER DISRUPTIONS MAY OCCUR AND CAUSE DELAYS FOR INBOUND AND OUTBOUND SHIPMENTS.

HOT WEATHER SHIPPING

Some candies and sweets are sensitive to hotter temperatures in the spring, summer and fall months. Chocolate, marshmallow and gummi or jelly candies may melt or get sticky in hot or humid environments. While this may be perfect for fondue, it’s not for your candy order. So, to ensure your product arrives in great condition, “Heat Sensitive”* items will have shipping restrictions during hot weather months. When ordering, keep the following in mind:

  • Temperatures differ from state to state, so shipping restrictions may be in effect for some states but not others.
  • Your order is being shipping from our temperature-controlled location in northern Cincinnati, Ohio. We check to ensure your order is of perfect quality prior to sealing the package for shipment. However, we cannot guarantee that your candy will arrive in the same perfect condition. For this reason, we do not provide refunds or replacements of product damaged by high temperatures.
  • If your order contains a heat sensitive item, Economy shipping will not be offered as an option due to the longer time in transit.

Heat Sensitive items will be noted on the item description page on the website in the bullets.

ORDER CHANGES & CANCELLATIONS

How may I change or cancel my order?

We start working on your order as soon as you hit submit. We work fast, so once you place an order with Just Candy by phone or online, it has begun to process. We will try to accommodate requests for any changes you may have, or an order cancellation, but we cannot guarantee the ability to do so with an order. If an order is already packaged for shipping, you would need to place a new order to accommodate changes and receive your additional items.

If your order requires a proof, changes may be made before your approval of the proof. After the proof has been approved by you, any additional changes may incur an additional setup fee. If you need to make changes to your order, please Contact Us right away. The shipment of your order may be delayed with any change requests.

If the shipping address you provided needs to be changed, please Contact Us ASAP to request the change. If your order is already being fulfilled, additional fees may apply and delivery may be delayed. In some cases, we may not be able to make the change.

Since we begin preparing your order as soon as you submit it, we may not be able to cancel an order once it has been packed and prepared for shipment. If we are able to stop an order before it leaves our facility, a cancellation fee may be charged.

RETURNS

Returns / Refunds

We want you to have a great experience form the time you look at our site, until you experience your candy or favor at your event. We take a great deal of care to ensure your order reaches you in perfect condition. Personalized assembled candies, assembled favors, and gift set items are carefully assembled so that stickers or labels are centered and straight, wrappers are not twisted or bent, and your product is something you will be pleased to receive. As a result, we rarely have a customer request a return. If you feel this is something you wish to do, please contact our Customer Care Team to discuss.

There are a few things that are not eligible for a return:

  • Candy or any edible product
  • Personalized items
  • Items that have been altered by the customer or a third-party

Products eligible for returns (such as favor tins and bags, or candy containers) must be in unused condition and may be returned no later than 10 business days from the date the order was delivered. You may choose your own shipping method to send us your returned product; however, we strongly encourage you to also get tracking information and delivery receipt, as we cannot be held responsible for crediting your account if you cannot verify that the product was returned to our facility. All costs associated with the product return is at the customer's expense and is not refundable. A credit will be issued to your account within 30 days, and will reflect the price you paid for the return product, less any shipping costs. All returns are subject to a 15% restocking fee.
