International and Domestic Product Orders

We are open + shipping with longer processing times.
The important details below will answer most questions in regards to how our busy shop is functioning during supply chain distribution. You are required to read this page before completing your purchase in our shop. Please take the time to read through it in its entirety. We’re being as transparent as possible to help avoid disappointments or misunderstandings. Thank you in advance as we navigate this challenging time.

**Fedex. DHL, and USPS is still having delays which may affect shipping times, especially on first class and even priority mail. International orders are taking much longer to be processed through customs causing delays. Please check the tracking numbers you are emailed and contact the shipping carrier chosen  or any shipping questions. I am not able to offer any more info on an order that has shipped other than what you see when you check your tracking. There will be no refunds offered for delayed shipments.

Orders that have been processed (meaning items have been ordered, in customs, pulled and packed for shipping) cannot be canceled.

ORDERING INFO: We are not taking rush or expedited orders. Please don’t assume when you think your order might ship. This shop processes a high volume of orders with one person currently fulfilling them. Processing time varies from a few days to a few weeks or more depending on what is ordered + where your order falls in the shipping queue. If on a deadline contact us BEFORE ordering so we can let you know if we can meet your deadline or not. If you leave a deadline date on your order without speaking to us first if the date cannot be met, we will cancel and refund your order.
SPECTRUM FLOW, DRAGÉES, and SPRINKLE,

SPECTRUM FLOW, DRAGÉES, and SPRINKLE, UPDATE: Venders are currently running low for Spectrum Flow, dragres/sprinkle orders for the moment. Many Spectrum Flow are on hold saying “sold out” until the vender catches up on orders already placed. If you’re a regular customer needing any of these items for your decorating needs – business, please contact us to see if we can accommodate your order depending on what is needed and your deadline date.

After you order you receive and emailed receipt. Unless we have a question on your order the next time you will hear from us is when your order has been packed for shipping. You’ll receive a shipping confirmation email containing your tracking #. Please check your junk-spam folder as they can often end up there.


Processing times will be longer as we’re only shipping a few times a week. What is processing time? It’s the time from when you order until when we are able to ship. This time frame varies depending on our current volume of orders + stock arrivals. Larger orders and/or orders with sprinkles will have longer processing times—— as sprinkles are packed to order and processed in batches.
As stated , the estimated shipping times shown DO NOT include our current processing time and the days listed are not accurately stated by DHL, Fedex, and USPS (we can’t change the time frames they show). Even if you upgrade your order to priority or express there will still be processing time before we’re able to ship. Anything weighing over 453 grams (1 lb) has to ship priority mail in the US, it’s not an upgraded order. Due to a higher number of packages being shipped through ,DHL, FEDEX, and USPS we cannot guarantee any time frames for delivery and they are currently experiencing delays.

KINDNESS MATTERS: 
This is a trying time. As a small business I am doing the best I can with what I have at the moment. If you send a harsh email inquiring on an order we reserve the right to cancel and refund it. Funds may take a few business days to post back to the account in which you paid.


OTHER IMPORTANT DETAILS:
Email inquiries may take a few days to be responded to. If you have not heard back in 3 days please send another email. Check your junk-spam folders as our replies can often get filtered there

INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS: DHL, FEDEX, and USPS are not shipping to many countries at this time. If we can not get your shipping address accepted to print a shipping label we will contact you to let you know that your order will have to be canceled. We have no control and are not responsible if your country rejects your package due to the current pandemic situation. If for some reason a package is returned to us we will contact you.

FOR THOSE WHO HAVE ORDERED FROM US: Please make sure you check your junk-spam folder for your order confirmation and shipping notice. We’re getting many notes from customers stating they are not getting our emails. They may be blocked or filtered to your junk-spam folders due to your email settings so please check there for them. If we respond to you and the email bounces back to us we have no way to contact you. Please enter your phone # at checkout as we can text a reply if we find this happens
(Even though things aren’t going as fast as I’d like please know I’m doing the best I can to make the adjustments needed to keep 5ᵗʰ Avenue’s Cookie And Cake Designs open to serve your baking + party needs. Thank you so much for your continued support of my small business. It’s because of you and the memories you’ll make in the kitchen baking for others or with your family and friends that keeps me going!

Stay safe and sweet!
Best,
Bobbie
