Ordering and International Chocolate Shipping from Trinidad & Tobago
{acf_ai_summary}
Trinitario does not charge a flat rate for international chocolate shipping. Because the cost depends on your destination and the size of your order, the most accurate way to get a price is to reach out directly through our Contact Us page, and we will send you a single combined invoice covering both the chocolate and the delivery.
How much does it cost to send a chocolate gift internationally, including shipping?
There isn’t a flat rate. Total shipping costs vary depending on your destination and order size, so the best way to get an accurate cost is to reach out directly through our Contact Us page.
From there, we create an invoice for your order and enter your order specifications into our international courier’s system to generate an accurate delivery cost estimate. That shipping cost is then added to the cost of your chocolate, and we send you a single combined invoice covering both the goods and the delivery.
How do I order handcrafted chocolate from Trinidad and Tobago for delivery abroad?
Ordering for delivery abroad is simple: just fill out our contact form or visit our Contact Us page.
Once we have your details, we handle the quoting and invoicing from there, so you receive one clear invoice covering your chocolate and its international delivery.
What happens if my chocolate order melts or blooms during international shipping?
Chocolate is a generally sensitive product to ship, so sudden changes in temperature can affect it in transit. The most common effect is bloom — a whitish, streaky, or dull-looking film that forms on the surface when cocoa butter re-crystallizes due to heat exposure. The good news is that bloom is purely cosmetic: it is completely safe to eat and doesn’t affect the taste, it just isn’t the most aesthetically pleasing to look at. In more extreme cases, temperature swings can also cause the chocolate to melt and lose its shape.
We’ve worked carefully with courier services across the islands to find partners who help maintain your chocolate’s premium quality in transit. That said, once your order is shipped — particularly for international deliveries — factors like weather and transit time are largely out of our control.
If your chocolate ever arrives in a condition that doesn’t meet your standards, don’t hesitate to reach out to us, and we will work with you to find the best possible resolution.
