Cheese Cakes & Other Cakes How Cheesecakes Are Shipped How do you package your cheesecakes for shipping? Our cheesecakes are blast frozen, then shrink wrapped with a heavy cryovac plastic. Then they go into a foam container that surrounds the cheesecake in 2 inches of insulation. Then into a heavy corrogated box as seen. We ship all of our cakes FedEx Overnight service. The cheesecake will arrive either partially frozen, or cold and ready to enjoy next day When do I have to place my order if I want it delivered the next day? We have to receive your order BEFORE 12:PM Eastern Standard Time, the day BEFORE you want your cheesecake to arrive. For delivery tomorrow, Please check your watch before placing your order! (See shipping/delivery days below) -------------------------------------- Why can't I have a cheesecake delivered on a Monday? We can not initiate a shipment on the weekend. We SHIP Monday through Friday, for DELIVERY on Tuesday through Saturday. Saturday delivery will incurr an added $12.00 delivery charge in addition to the regular shipping charge. Can I ship a cheesecake to be delivered on Saturday or Sunday? Saturday delivery is available for an additonal $12.00. The cake has to be shipped on Friday to arrive on Saturday. Sorry, we can not ship cakes to arrive on Sunday or Monday. We only charge extra shipping when FedEx charges us extra for a delivery. How does your pricing work? Is shipping included? Is there a handling charge? We ship all our cheesecake gifts via FedEx Standard Next Day Shipping. You'll see the FedEx shipping charge that will be added to each order when you place your order! Your cheesecake is guaranteed to arrive by 3:00pm. We do not mark up the shipping, nor do we impose superfluous handling charges. We are in the business of shipping and handling cheesecakes, we will not charge you "extra" for the privilege. The packaging insures that every cheesecake will arrive in perfect condition. In the event that there is no one home, FedEx will leave the cake if it is safe to do so. The cake will last 2+ days in the container...especially during the winter months! Please order with confidence, your cheesecake will arrive in perfect condition, we guarantee it! What time will my cheesecake arrive? We ship via FedEx Standard Next Day Service. Your cheesecake is guaranteed to arrive by 3:00pm local time. What if I need my cheesecake to arrive before noon? Delivery before noon requires us to ship your cheesecake FedEx Priority Next Day Service, and there is a $12.00 additional charge by FeDex. Please Note: From our experience, most cheesecakes are delivered well before 3:00 pm (especially to a business address) but if you absolutely need it to be delivered before noon, you should send your cheesecake Priority Overnight. What happens if the recipient is not home? FedEx will leave the package in a safe place at the address. 85% of our shipments are left at the door. As an alternative, we recomend that you ship to a business address if possible, as generally there is somebody there all day to receive the cheesecake. Can I send a cheesecake to someone in a foreign Country? At this time, no. It's very expensive, and they can not guarantee timely delivery. Customs issues can also slow down the delivery. Our experience is that nobody is happy with the results, so until that changes, we do not offer international delivery. -------------------------------------- Can I send Cheesecake to someone that lives in Hawaii or Canada? Unfortunately Canada has many of the same problems as international deliveries. Even though it is in North America, FedEx will not guarantee delivery to even the largest Canadian cities. Alaska and Hawaii are available at an additional cost, usually $10* moew per cake. Remote and rural areas can be more. Please call for exact charges. We only charge extra shipping when FedEx charges us extra for a delivery.------------------------------ How do you ship a cheesecake to be delivered in Berkeley or in the Bay Area? As always, we are trying to keep the cost of our products as reasonable as possible. We do not mark up our shipping charges and we do not add superfluous handling charges. We are in the business of shipping and handling cheesecakes and we do not charge you extra for that privilege. We are confident you will and your recipients will be pleased with our Cheese Cakes!
