Do you ship during the Summer?
We ship Leonidas Belgian Chocolates year round but switch to a "Summer Shipping Schedule" mid May through late fall as WE DO NOT ship "over the weekend" during the warmer months. At that time, the orders placed with the Free Shipping and the Standard option after 5 pm EST on Wednesdays, and on the Overnight Service after 5 pm EST on Thursdays will not be shipped until the following Monday so that your chocolates do not sit in the heat in transit over the weekend.
Do you ship outside the US?
We do not ship outside of the Continental US. To find a Leonidas Belgian Chocolates retailer near you, please visit www.leonidas.com.
How late can I order during the holidays?
We recommend that in the winter months, especially during the Holidays, you order as early as possible. We cannot be held responsible for delays caused by inclement weather in transit.
Can I order now and receive my shipment at a later date?
Yes, but we are unable to process these requests through our website. To arrange a future delivery date, simply call us during store hours at 1-800-900-CHOC.
