Return and Refund Policy

Because we are selling chocolate, we can only offer refunds for unopened items with a return authorization request within 48 hours of your delivery, and those items must be returned within 5 days from the return authorization request. Please do not send your purchase back to our store; a return authorization is required. Returns will be charged a 20% restocking fee, and shipping fees are non-refundable. Returns must be sent via a trackable and insured method at the customer’s expense (you will be responsible for paying for your own shipping costs for returning your item). Returned items must be wrapped in the same insulation method as they were shipped including a frozen ice pack that’s added separated from the chocolate to prevent condensation water from damaging the bars or packaging.

Please send returns to:

Zotter Chocolates US LLC
1020 NE Pine Island Rd #302
Cape Coral, FL 33909

To be eligible for a return, your item must be unopened, unused, and in the same condition that you received it. It must also be in the original packaging.

Exempt from returning: custom orders with individual designed packaging.

Once your return is received and inspected, we will send you an email to notify you that we have received your returned item. We will also notify you of the approval or rejection of your refund. If you are approved, then your refund will be processed, and a credit will automatically be applied to your credit card or original method of payment minus a 20% restocking fee. Shipping fees are non-refundable.

Returns of unclaimed packages

We are not issuing refunds for unclaimed returned packages. Since we need to ensure the integrity of our product, we can’t put chocolate back in stock that was sitting at the post office for weeks waiting to be picked up and eventually returned to us.

For that reason, we urge you to follow tracking as soon as we ship your package to make sure you are receiving your delivery.
