Frequently Asked Questions


When do you restock your chocolate bar flavors?

Throughout the year, we are always producing new batches of our chocolate bars. We have new batches of a selection of flavors approximately every month. We will do our best to continue to restock our online store as the year progresses. Thank you for your patience and understanding!


Do you ship during warm/hot weather?

For warm/hot weather, we include a complimentary ice pack as well as insulated bubble wrap in your order. We typically send out chocolate bars towards the beginning of the week (Monday through Wednesday) so they won't sit at the post office over the weekend and melt. We are always monitoring the weather to make sure we take precautions against melting chocolate.


Do you ship internationally?

We can ship internationally, but the shipping cost (and potential tariffs) to our customers abroad is always very expensive. Also, with the weather warming up, it might not reach its destination fast enough without melting. If you’d still like to place an order, please email me (openbookchocolates@email.com) with the number of bars you’re interested in. Then we can send you a shipping cost estimate.


What about food allergies?

We use dedicated equipment for flavors with nuts. All our chocolate bars are gluten free and soy free. Our dark chocolate is dairy free. All our chocolate bars are made at River-Sea Chocolates, so please check out their "Allergins & Food Sensitivities" info here: riverseachocolates.com/terms-conditions.


Is your chocolate fair trade?

Yes, our chocolate is fair trade. River-Sea Chocolates purchases all cacao for us, paying the farmers above fair trade prices. For more information, please visit riverseachocolates.com/terms-conditions.


Do you sell wholesale?

Yes, we do! Please send us an email introducing your store and I’ll be happy to respond with our wholesale information.
