At Kneals Chocolates we want you to be happy…..as simple as that. Our aim is to provide you with your chosen product in a perfect condition. Because Kneals is an independent artisan business, (the product is handmade in small batches), we aim for our usual maximum delivery time from the day of your request to delivery to be 5 days. However, at busier periods like Christmas and Easter where there is a high demand for our products, we cannot guarantee a time scale for delivery as the processing of your order may take slightly longer. Please make note of indications on the website of deadlines for final deliveries particularly at Christmas time. We apologise for any inconvenience should your delivery be delayed, and would recommend that you place your order early at busy times of year to avoid any disappointment.
All orders can only be processed with full payment and not before. Upon receiving an order from you it becomes a legally binding contract between us.
3.1 The prices payable for products that you order are as set out on our website.
3.2 In most instances you will be required to pay extra for delivery. Our delivery charges can be found at the order stage (click on product) and are calculated during the checkout process.
You are not permitted to sell and must not offer for sale or re-sell any of our products.
Many of our products do not contain nuts, however they are made in the same environment as products that do. Therefore we cannot guarantee they will be free from traces of tree nuts and peanuts. All allergy information can be found next to the product. Please take the time to check.
Unless we receive an email within 24 hours of the order being placed to cancel, we can’t refund your money. Sorry.
