Our products that require refrigeration are safe to enjoy as long as they arrive cool to the touch.

This will take you to a webpage where you can view your estimated arrival date and follow the tracking provided by the carrier. 

If your order has not shipped yet and it is scheduled to ship today, please know that carriers pick up packages later in the day from our food makers. So, you may not see movement on the tracking until tomorrow. We encourage you to check your tracking again tomorrow for an update. 

If your order has shipped and is scheduled to deliver today, please know our carriers will deliver packages anytime between 8am-8pm. The time of delivery is all subject to the local carrier. If the tracking provided by the carrier says your package is on the vehicle for delivery, it will arrive at your doorstep by end of day!

If there appears to be an issue with your delivery, please speak to us via live chat on the main page or email us at info@CakesByJeffTheChef.com for immediate support.

If you need to update an address, or change a delivery date please contact info@CakesByJeffTheChef.com at least 2 business days before the order is set to ship. We kindly ask customers to give Cakes By Jeff The Chef and shops time to act upon your request, for this reason 2 full business days is required and we cannot guarantee address changes if a request is made closer to the ship date than this.

Cakes By Jeff The Chef is not responsible for refunds or replacements of orders with incomplete, invalid, or incorrect addresses. The customer is responsible for checking their confirmation email at the time of placing their order. Additionally, we are not responsible for packages sent to recipients who are not available to accept packages on the delivery date. We are not able to reship packages that are returned to us by the carrier. Please take this into consideration when selecting your shipping address for an order.

Although we do everything in our power to get your food to you on time, occasionally items get delayed due to bad weather or other unforeseen events. Our shops know this, so they pack their products to remain fresh an extra couple of days in in transit. Upon arrival just follow the instructions for serving or storing immediately.

If the order’s “Ships On” date (as outlined in your confirmation email) is 3 or more days away, you can cancel your own order, (pending your order hasn’t already entered the food maker’s fulfillment process). Follow the simple steps in this help article.

To cancel an order that is shipping in less than 3 days, or to edit / reschedule an order, you must submit a request to our customer care team. Please include your order number for faster service.

Because our partner shops make all food items per order, we are unable to guarantee the changes to order once it’s confirmed. Due to the holidays we experience a high surge in orders, which makes it difficult for them to pull an order that has already entered their production and fulfillment process. 

If your inquiry is received less than 3 days of your order shipping, or if your order is placed within 3 days of the scheduled ship date, we will do everything in our power to accommodate your request. Changes or cancellations may not be possible if the order you are inquiring about has already entered the fulfillment process. Due to order surges, our shops can begin the fulfillment process a few days before your order is ready to ship.

If you need to edit the delivery address once your order has shipped, a $19 address change processing fee will apply to your order. Once an address modification is requested, the carrier requires one business day to process the change, which may delay the package. Cakes By Jeff The Chef is not responsible for delays in transit caused by address modification.

There are no returns, modifications, or cancellations allowed on any items once shipped.

Our partner shops make every food item to order. Our shops vary in size and capabilities, and have specific ship schedules and inventory limits to meet their weekly production structures. Due to this, if a shop is experiencing high volumes, your desired delivery date may no longer be available.

We recommend placing your order in advance when possible. We provide the option to request a delivery date up to 8 weeks in advance at checkout.

COVID Delivery Wait Times: Wait time may be due to the current high demand of products, or in some cases, the food maker may have temporarily paused shipping operations.

We certainly understand your concern in light of the global outbreak of COVID-19. We’d like to shed some light on what our partner shops and food makers are doing to keep customers safe as we work alongside the global community in the containment of this crisis.

Not only do our food makers follow strict local public health guidelines year round, but during this crucial time, they have implemented heightened sanitizing practices at all of their retail and fulfillment facilities. Additional deep cleaning and hand washing processes are in place, employees who are showing signs of sickness are required to stay home and they are working closely with their local health departments to ensure that additional measures are being taken as required. Their #1 mission is to ensure the wellbeing of their staff and the customers receiving their products locally and nationwide.

Additionally, we wanted to share with you some helpful information directly from the CDC “Coronaviruses are generally thought to be spread from person-to-person through respiratory droplets. Currently there is no evidence to support transmission of COVID-19 associated with food.”

Our Cakes By Jeff The Chef family is continuing to monitor and take all precautions in this rapidly changing situation. As of now, we are continuing to deliver packages as scheduled. Should this change, you will hear an update directly from us. We are thankful that we are able to help our customers explore tastes from their past or have always wanted to experience. We hope to bring you and your loved ones some comfort through food delivered right to your doorstep during this trying time.

Please contact us at info@CakesByJeffTheChef.com if you need additional assistance, we’re happy to help!

Some of our partner restaurants, small shops, and food makers have reported slight delays in orders they are currently fulfilling, due to the expected disruptions in supply chains affecting all industries during the COVID-19 pandemic. Our restaurants and food makers are continuing to operate following the safest of standards to ship their food nationwide, but some supplies & packaging (necessary for cross-country shipping of food) have longer lead times than usual. Therefore, some orders may ship 1-5 days later than planned. Again, this has been the case with some food makers, not all. 

In addition, carriers are experiencing higher than normal volumes. We’re receiving reports of packages being delayed at different FedEx and UPS hubs around the country. Its important to us that customers’ orders arrive as close to the chosen delivery date as possible, therefore we are taking precaution, arranging for some orders to deliver 1-2 days early in case of any delays. You can read more about our shipping policy here. 

We greatly appreciate your patience and understanding during these unprecedented times. The Cakes By Jeff The Chef team is working around the clock with our food makers to ensure that you receive your order as close to your desired delivery date as possible. For up to date shipping details, we encourage you to view your order status on your Cakes By Jeff The Chef Account by clicking on My Orders and viewing the ship and delivery date noted on your order. Or, please contact our Customer Support team with specific questions—we are here to help!

It is the sole responsibility of the customer to notify a gift recipient of a pending delivery. UPS and FedEx drivers will only leave the package at a recipient’s door, or other secure location, if the driver believes it is ‘safe’ and reasonable to do so. If the recipient is not available to receive the delivery and UPS or FedEx determines the delivery location is not ‘safe,’ Cakes By Jeff The Chef is not responsible for a damaged product and/or additional shipping fees.

We do not require a signature of delivery of packages. It is ultimately up to the individual driver as to whether they feel comfortable leaving the box at a home, even if a signature is not required.  If the driver does not leave the package, you can call the carrier to arrange a pick up at the nearest shipping location that same day or wait for re-delivery the following business day.  Carriers typically make 3 delivery attempts before the product is returned. We ask that you plan accordingly to be sure you receive the best quality product.
