- Local pickup: Free at our North York studio, Mon-Fri 10am-6pm, Sat 11am-4pm. Order ready within 2 hours during business hours.
- Heat warning: Chocolate melts. We don't ship when forecast temperatures exceed 26°C at the destination. If you place an order and we can't ship safely, we'll contact you to hold or refund.
- Risk of loss: passes to you when the carrier delivers. We provide tracking for all orders.
4. Allergens & dietary
All our chocolate is made in a facility that also handles tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, and dairy. We cannot guarantee zero cross-contamination. If you have a severe allergy, please contact us before ordering.
Vegan, nut-free, and gluten-free SKUs are produced on shared equipment.
5. Cancellations & refunds
- Standard orders: Full refund if you cancel within 24 hours of placing the order, or before we've started production (whichever is later). Once your order is in production, it's non-refundable (the chocolate is hand-painted to your spec).
- Corporate & wedding orders: 50% deposit is non-refundable. Balance refundable if you cancel more than 14 days before your ship date.
- Damaged or incorrect orders: We replace or refund any order that arrives damaged or isn't what you ordered. Photo required within 48 hours of delivery. Email contact@alinenasseh.com.
6. Subscriptions & recurring orders
When subscriptions launch (Q3 2026), you can pause or cancel any time before the next billing date. No fees, no questions.
7. Account termination
We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone. If you have an account with us, we may terminate it for abuse, fraud, or violations of these terms. We'll always tell you first and refund any unused balance.
