Tips for ordering Hotel Chocolat via PostUK

Chocolate is temperature sensitive. For orders to hot climates (Spain, southern France, Australia), order during cooler months where possible — transit temperatures can affect chocolate quality. The Velvetiser machine and non-perishable items can be ordered any time of year.

Hotel Chocolat hampers and gift sets can be heavy. Use Quick Quote to check forwarding costs before ordering large hampers. Lighter gift boxes and H-boxes forward more cheaply.

PostUK's parcel consolidation service lets you combine Hotel Chocolat with other UK orders and forward them together — reducing the overall forwarding cost.
