Warm Weather Shipping

Please note that Wilbur’s of Maine Chocolate Confections is not responsible for melting or other damage caused by heat exposure during shipping.

Protect Your Order from the Heat

If it’s hot out (above 70°F) and your order contains chocolate, caramel, or marshmallow, you need to purchase either a Cold Pack or Cooler Box to prevent candy soup and improve the chances your order arrives in great shape.

Option 1: Cold Pack

A cold pack works best for orders being sent to destinations that are 70-75° F.

Option 2: Cooler Box/Cold Pack Combo

This option works best for orders being sent to destinations 75° F or above. As a general rule, Wilbur’s of Maine does not recommend shipping CHOCOLATE to destinations above 85°F. Please choose another product instead!

What else do WE do to protect your sweets?

We hold your order in our temperature-controlled warehouse to avoid additional transit time over the weekend. Packages leave our building Monday-Thursday only. If you need a delivery by a specific date, please add a note at checkout or call us at 207.865.4071. We can ensure your order arrives in time.

What else can YOU do to protect your sweets?

  1. Be home for delivery! Most damage is caused by warm weather when your package sits on your porch or in your mailbox.
  2. Choose a delivery address where someone can accept the package, so it does not sit outside in the heat.
  3. If the package feels warm, open immediately to expose your sweets to cooler indoor air.
  4. If chocolate has softened at all, GIVE IT A CHANCE TO FIRM UP before handling it.

Local Pick-Up Option when ordering online:

Please Note:

  • There is not a cash or check option for local pick-up when ordering online.
  • You are unable to select your desired pick-up date/time.
  • You MUST select your pick-up location by entering “Freeport” or “Brunswick” in the specified field when checking out.
  • You will be notified via email that your order is “completed.” Meaning it is packed and ready for pick up.
