Order received with missing items....I unfortunately did not read the reviews before placing an order as this seems to be extremely common with this company. Also very very very expensive especially... See more

What an absolutely appalling company
What an absolutely appalling company.
They send half your order, and when you contact them to query it, they pretend to re-send out the second half of your order. Two weeks later nothing and now radio silence on email.
I realise I’m not the first and very clearly won’t be the last, but I am absolutely disgusted how a fraud campaign pretending to be a company is allowed to continue in this day and age. I will be taking this further and won’t rest until this company owns up to keeping money for orders they have no intention of sending.
STAY AWAY.
ORDERED A MONTH AGO, STILL NOTHING
placed an order on 7th of may, currently it is the 3rd of june and i still haven’t received anything. I placed it as next day delivery aswell and still nothing. when i called them which was on 13th of may, they said they’re not sure what has happened and they said they will proceed to chase it up and also give me my shipping refund which would take 3-5 working days, like i mentioned before, it is currently the 3rd of june and they haven’t given me my shipping refund as well as my order!!!! when i raised a dispute against them, they said they’ll send a new order to me and gave me a tracking number but i’ll be sending it back and that is if i even receive it, it took a dispute for them to actually sort it out. AVOID AT ALL COSTS
New update… After i disputed, the company responded on 2nd June 2026 and said they’ve issued a new order for me and that i will get it delivered in 2 days time…… it’s currently 9th June and i still haven’t recieved my order and i ain’t surprised, the payment has been fully completed, the dispute has been closed and i won’t be getting a refund as well as not receiving my order, this company knows exactly what they’re doing so please avoid at all costs.
PLEASE NEVER ORDER FROM HERE!!
PLEASE NEVER ORDER FROM HERE!!
Terrible, parcel hasn’t shown up, I’ve tried emailing, I’ve ended up contacting my bank about it
Do not buy from this company
Do not buy from this company. There are plenty of other online sweet companies out there who actually reply to customers and take time for customer service. Took nearly a week to dispatch my order and I still havent received it. I messaged them and just got blanked.
Never arrived
Ordered 2 weeks ago, still no sign of delivery! Avoid this company at all costs, there’s better suppliers for American treats.
DO NOT BUY!
DO NOT BUY!! Do not answer emails, no communication and several missing items totalling over £20. Trying to get my money back but they do not reply.
Order never arrived
Order never arrived, sent 2 emails with no replies. Wish I checked the customer reviews before ordering but got a full refund through my bank luckily!
Same as many others on here

Slow delivery missing items
Ordered a box of items 2 items missing from box which took a week to arrive will go back to my usual supplier not impressed . To update I have sent email no response no refund this company is shockingly bad customer service zero I regret giving this company custom and will never make the same mistake again
Don’t bother if you want your full…
Don’t bother if you want your full order! Missing items and I’ve emailed regarding this, they’ve said they will resend out the missing items but nothings arrived
Non-existent customer service
Ordered something on the 30th of April and realised I had accidentally ordered the wrong thing. Emailed them approximately an hour after ordering it and requested a cancellation. Received an automated response from their customer service. On the 5th of May I received an email that they had dispatched my order, five days after I requested a cancellation. Emailed again on the 5th May and still received no response at all. Items arrived today, 11 days after ordering and cancelling. Really poor customer service, would not use again
Listen to the bad reviews
Sent a few items that I ordered and missed out £9 worth. Sent out of date stock and ignored all emails. How are these people still trading?
Wouldn’t bother again. Expensive and partially shipped…
Prices are high in comparison to other companies and they have VERY limited stock, most of the good stuff showing as out of stock, even despite that, I placed an order and it only partially arrived.
I’ll give them credit, I paid for Next Day delivery and it did arrive next day but several items were missing, with no communication as to why. I didn’t even received a shipping email until after the parcel was delivered. I’ve worked in online retail before and this usually happens when an order is partially shipped - which my order was - however, the confirmation I did receive showed all items dispatched, when they clearly weren’t. A week later and my email have been ignored and no update regarding the stock shortages and/or a refund.
Considering that about 60% of the stock on the site show as “out of stock”, I don’t know how they managed to partially ship an order. Wouldn’t waste my time or money ordering from them again as their competitors offer better value, generally more favourable reviews and these guys are ignorant and dishonest to customers when they can’t fully send an order.
Missing item never sent and constantly fobbed off
Received my order with one item incorrect and one item missing, called them same day was told they were waiting a shipment and then my missing item would be sent and that id receive an email about it. I did not. Sent an email a few days later asking for an update, then I called them again, was told again that they were waiting for a shipment and then I’d have my item sent, well it’s been another week since that phone call and I still haven’t received my item. It’s now been 3 weeks since my order and 2 weeks since I received my order. Thankfully I paid with Clearpay so I can at least raise a dispute with them to resolve the issue, however I will be reporting this company too.
*update* after further emails including threatening them with reporting them I got a reply saying they’d refund me, I told them to please do that, they then tried to close my dispute with Clearpay using my delivery tracking information as evidence, however I have email proof of them admitting the item wasn’t sent and that they are waiting for a shipment. Unfortunately for them I am an incredibly stubborn person and will just annoy them into sorting this issue out.
SCAM!!!!! DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY
SCAM!!!! DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY. ONE ITEM OUT OF EIGHT RECEIVED, PROMISE OF REMAINING ORDER WILL BE DELIVERED. ITEMS NEVER ARRIVED. I HAVE SENT NUMEROUS EMAILS, NOT GETTING ANY RESPONSE AND NOBODY ANSWERS THE PHONE NUMBER ON THE WEBSITE AVOID THIS COMPANY! TOTAL SCAM!!
Missing items
Never Buy from this website........ Late delivery, missing items ,no response after countless emails, why are they allowed to get away with this, who can we escalate this to?
Absolutely shocking service. AVOID!
We were sent out the wrong order, and when we contacted them about it we heard absolutely nothing back. It’s been over a week since we emailed them and not even had a reply. Will not be using again and I urge others to do the same.
Don’t waste your time or money with…
Don’t waste your time or money with this company, will take your money, dispatch less then half of order all with very little life date and NEVER respond to emails or answer the phone
If your looking for American sweets try candymail, they saved my Christmas
