FAQ about our handcrafted confections
When do orders ship?
Our candies are cooked in small batches for optimum freshness and are then packaged by hand. We strive to retain a shipping turnaround of 3-5 business days from order date. During certain peak seasons & holidays it may be slightly delayed of which you'll find updated shipping information on our 'home' page. We ship via USPS Priority Mail to provide fast, inexpensive shipping options for our customers.
What is the shelf life?
We truly strive to provide the most pure artisan quality candies; meaning we don't add any additional chemical preservatives. Our packaging and cooking methods alone help preserve the candies. All candies should always be stored at room temperature out of sunlight or heat.
From the date of manufacture, the following candy category 'best by' dates are as follows:
Caramel products: 5 months
Toffee products: 5 months
Candy Floss: 6 months
Brittles: 6 months
Pralines & Potholes: 4 weeks
How many caramels are in a 4oz package?
Our caramels are hand-cut resulting in slightly varying sizes of individually wrapped caramels. On average there are 13-15 caramels in each 4oz. package. Our candies are always sold by weight.
Is there alcohol in the Salted Whiskey Caramels or Bourbon Pecan Toffee?
During the cooking process, the alcohol evaporates from the molten sugar and deposits a deeper flavor into the caramels...think brown sugary goodness.
I am not fond of whiskey-will I like the Salted Whiskey Caramels or Bourbon Pecan Toffee?
Short answer YES! Our Head Sugar Slinger is actually not a fan of whiskey as a drink-- but LOVES the flavor profile with our handcrafted candies. The whiskey truly transforms the flavor and you don't taste the whiskey alcohol flavor at all since the alcohol is completely cooked out of the caramels. If you love caramel you'll love ours even more!
