Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Considering 710 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers frequently praise the wide and unique selection of products, including items that are hard to find elsewhere, making it a go-to for international snacks and drinks. The delivery service is consistently highlighted as fast and efficient, with many orders arriving quickly and even earlier than expected. Reviewers also appreciate the excellent packaging, noting that items, especially fragile ones, are securely wrapped and arrive undamaged, ensuring product integrity. However, some customers were dissatisfied with delivery delays, receiving orders much later than anticipated, which caused disappointment, especially for gifts. A few other people also felt that the presentation of mystery boxes was underwhelming, and some products arrived past their best-before date or were damaged, with slow or no response from customer service.

We ordered our favourite cream soda from Candymail, and it arrived safely and quickly. Lots of polystyrene packing though...so some recycled materials would be better but overall a good experience.

Hi, thanks for your review.

We’re sorry to hear you were disappointed. Your order contained mystery box items with products imported from multiple countries, and many international items use different date formats to the UK (for example US formats are month/day/year, and some Asian products display manufacture dates rather than best before dates).

It would be extremely unlikely for all items in a large mystery order to genuinely be out of date, so please feel free to email us at [info@candymail.co.uk](mailto:info@candymail.co.uk) with photos of any dates you’re unsure about and we’ll happily check them for you 😊

Disappointed with the presentation

Disappointed with the presentation. Ordered a mystery box which was intended as a gift. It arrived in a tattered, dusty plain brown box with zero presentation, not very gift worthy as I would have expected. Had to purchase another box and then move the contents into that. The items themselves were fine. Lots of what seemed like the same snack in different varieties but I guess that’s the risk of a mystery box. It was quite underwhelming uniqueness/variety wise. Not sure I’ll order again unless I’m wanting something specific.

Hi, thanks for your feedback.

We’re sorry to hear the presentation wasn’t what you expected. Our mystery boxes are packed in plain brown shipping boxes as we focus the value on the contents themselves rather than premium outer packaging, although improved presentation is something we are currently working on behind the scenes 😊

That said, the box definitely shouldn’t have arrived tattered or dusty, so we do apologise for that part of the experience.

With mystery boxes, variety can naturally differ depending on current stock and themes available at the time, but we do appreciate the honest feedback and will take it onboard moving forward.

Kind regards,
Aaron

Great website for candies and monster

Ordered 2 times, they have many flavors of monster and they get the new flavors first. Ordered to Romania and paid no customs to DHL since the order was under 150 euros. The shipping is okay, they do everything to send it fast, but DHL is usually slow here. They put gifts in both of my orders. They packed the cans very well and they arrived in perfect condition.

Hi,

Apologies for the delayed response — your email was sent over the bank holiday weekend while our office was closed.

We have now replied to your email directly.

The item purchased was clearly listed in the product title as being past its best before date and was discounted accordingly.

A “best before” date relates to product quality rather than food safety. This means the product may not be at its absolute best quality after that date, but it is still safe to consume if stored correctly. This is different from a “use by” date, which relates to food safety.

Kind regards,
Candymail Customer Service Team

Great service

I ordered my things whilst on holiday in America and asked them to hold shipping until the day we travelled home and they did this with the parcel arriving the day after we did.
Great service and reasonable prices. Will be ordering again soon.

Ordering and delivery was faultless

Ordering and delivery was faultless, some of what I ordered was tiny and despite it saying it had flavour it couldn't be tasted. Don't get me wrong there is an amazing variety of products and prices are reasonable.

Hi Mark,

Thank you for your feedback.

We’re sorry to hear that you were disappointed with the mystery box. Our mystery boxes are packed based on value rather than exclusivity, and the contents can vary depending on current stock availability and imported products available at the time.

We do appreciate your comments and will certainly take the feedback onboard moving forward when curating future boxes.

Kind regards,
Candymail Customer Support
