Q: If I am not home or at my business will UPS leave my package?

** All UPS shipments are sent via “NO Signature Required”. It is encouraged to have someone available when your package(s) is delivered to either a residential or business address. If no one is available when the UPS driver arrives, UPS has the option to either leave the package at the door, if they feel it is safe to do so, or return the package back to the FedEx station. At this point you will become responsible to pick up your package at the UPS station or make arrangements for another delivery directly with UPS.


AppetizersUSA strongly suggests that if you are not going to be home or at your business when your package is due to arrive, please put a note on the door saying “UPS ok to leave” and sign it. AppetizersUSA is not liable for any delivery where the customer is not available to receive the order, or the merchandise has been left at the shipment location by UPS. **

Q: Can I leave my products in the box when I receive it?

No. Once you receive the shipment please place it into your freezer. If you are not sure you can be home to receive the package, may we suggest you send it to a business address or perhaps a friend or relative who would be available to accept the delivery. It is very important that the products stay frozen until you are ready to use them.

Dry ice is a frozen carbon Dioxide. Unlike traditional Ice, Dry Ice will not melt into a liquid, but instead transform into a gas. This process is called sublimation. If there is no dry ice inside your package, feel the product. If it's cool, then place inside the freezer or prepare by following cooking instructions. If the product is thawed, please contact us immediately.


Q: Do you have a Return Policy?

If you provide us with the wrong shipping address we will NOT be responsible for the product. If the package is delivered on time and either you or the gift recipient is unavailable to receive the package we will NOT be responsible for the product. FedEx can leave your order without obtaining a signature. If UPS believes it is unsafe to leave the package, you must contact UPS to make arraignments for pick up at the UPS hub or reschedule delivery with UPS. The only returns accepted are those of shipping damage or spoiled product upon delivery. You must notify us within two (2) days and we will then determine what type of refund we can give you.
