Shipping Policy

Last updated: Summer 2026

The short version. Free shipping on orders over $49 anywhere in the contiguous US. For chocolate, gummies, and other heat-sensitive candy, every order automatically includes Cold Pack Protection — see the Shipping & Handling rate below. Orders under $49 ship for $6.99 flat.

Processing & delivery

Most orders leave our warehouse within 1–2 business days. During peak seasons and promotional windows, allow up to 3. Once your order ships, you'll get a tracking email — and you can track any time by logging into your account at candyinbulk.com.

Shipping rates — non-heat-sensitive orders

Order total Shipping
Under $49.00 $6.99 flat rate
$49.00 and above FREE shipping in the contiguous US
Orders to Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and U.S. territories use actual carrier rates calculated at checkout — the free-shipping threshold doesn't apply to those destinations.

Cold Pack Protection — for chocolate, gummies & heat-sensitive candy

Some of our products melt. Chocolate, gummies, caramels, and certain other candies don't survive a hot truck or a long summer transit, and we don't pretend otherwise. For these items, every order automatically includes Cold Pack Protection:

  • Professional-grade ice packs sized to your order weight
  • An insulated liner that holds temperature in transit
  • Expedited shipping where it's needed to get your order there before the cold packs warm up

Look for the badge

❄ Cold Pack Protect

Every heat-sensitive product on our site is marked with a Cold Pack Protect badge on the product page and in collection views. If you see the badge, your order ships with Cold Pack Protection at the rate below — no surprises at checkout. If you don't see it, standard shipping rates apply.

Why we charge for Cold Pack Protection

Candy in transit can hit temperatures well above safe storage thresholds — especially in summer, but also during unexpected delays at any time of year. Cold packs, insulated liners, and expedited carrier rates aren't free. We charge what it actually costs to get your order to your door in the condition it left our warehouse. No markup, no padding.

Cold Pack Protection is automatic on every heat-sensitive order. It's how we deliver candy that arrives the way it was packed.

Order tracking

A tracking number is emailed to you once your order ships. You can also track any time by logging into your account at candyinbulk.com.

Questions about shipping?

Our customer service team is available via the Contact Us page. For time-sensitive shipping concerns, please reach out as soon as possible — we cannot reroute or modify orders once they have left our facility.

Long live the candy.
