Where do you deliver?

We ship our Cookie Gift Boxes within the contiguous United States (excludes Hawaii, Alaska and Puerto Rico). For shipments to Hawaii and Alaska, please email myorder@levainbakery.com to inquire for special order (additional fees will apply). 

We bake-to-order and limit transit time so cookies are fresh upon arrival. Shipping dates and pricing are determined by location/availability. We try our best to deliver orders as requested, but the mail carrier may experience unexpected delays. We recommend selecting a date 1-2 days in advance if you'd like delivery by a specific date.

To ensure your cookies in our gift boxes arrive in the freshest condition, orders shipping beyond the northeastern United States will be shipped via express air service.

Due to the highly perishable nature of our cookies, at this time we are unfortunately unable to support shipping to international locations or APO/FPO addresses.

How can I get items from the bakery delivered?

We can deliver certain items from our bakery locations to select areas within delivery range via DoorDash, Caviar and Uber Eats. Our cookie gift boxes are not available for delivery from our bakery locations. Please visit: https://levainbakery.com/pages/delivery-options for more information and to place and order.

When do you deliver?

We deliver our cookie gift boxes Tuesdays through Fridays. Shipping dates and pricing are determined by location and availability.

Please note, we do not generally ship orders if they will be in transit over a weekend. We're unable to guarantee an exact delivery time and your order may be delivered up until 9pm depending on the delivery driver and route. 

If you're tight on time and looking to deliver cookies to someone who lives near a bakery location, we recommend ordering directly through the bakery. You can also request an exact delivery time via third party delivery platforms such as DoorDash, Caviar and Uber Eats.

Do you deliver to PO Boxes?

UPS does not deliver to PO boxes, so you’ll need to use the street address of a post office if that’s the only way your recipient can get their mail.

What if the recipient is not available to take the delivery?

Please note that we ship all our orders with a signature required at shipping, so we recommend shipping to an address where someone will be available to sign for the delivery. It is at the sole discretion of UPS whether your package will be left without a signature. If signature is waived, Levain Bakery cannot be held responsible if the package is lost, stolen or damaged.

If UPS cannot deliver on the date selected, they will reattempt the next day available. UPS reattempts unsuccessful Friday deliveries on Monday, but if you're within 150 miles of our New York ovens, UPS will reattempt unsuccessful Friday deliveries on Saturday. Please plan accordingly, our goal is for all cookies to arrive as fresh as possible!

Shipping delays

For freshness, we bake-to-order and try to minimize the time cookies are in transit to 2 days.

We try our best to deliver orders as requested and recommend selecting a date 1-2 days in advance if you'd like delivery by a specific date.

While we do our best to deliver your order on the date you select, UPS may experience unexpected delays. There may be a time in which your Friday delivery gets delayed until Monday, due to UPS weather or operational delays

During national and peak holidays, we encourage customers to select a date 1-2 days before desired delivery to ensure your package will arrive in time for the holiday.

How much will shipping cost?

All shipping options for your delivery address are displayed at checkout, along with exact prices. 1 and 2-day ground shipping cost is $12, 2-day air shipping cost is $20, and overnight air shipping cost is $49. Saturday delivery is available to orders being delivered within 150 miles of our New York ovens or by special arrangement. 

How can I select a delivery date in a future month?

Unfortunately, we cannot take orders more than 25 days ahead of delivery date.

What’s the best way to ensure my order arrives on a specific date?

At checkout you can select the date by which you would like your cookies to arrive, and we’ll ship them out accordingly to ensure the freshest cookies possible.

While we do our best to deliver your order on the date you select, UPS is currently experiencing nationwide shipping delays. There may be a time in which your Friday delivery gets delayed until Monday, due to UPS weather or operations delays

During peak holidays such as Thanksgiving, Christmas, Valentine's Day, Mother’s Day, etc. we encourage customers to select a date 1-2 days before desired delivery to ensure your package will arrive in time for the holiday.

Do you do cater to parties and events?

Yes! We can do custom cookie party favors for any of your events small and large. We will work with you directly to get every detail right for your party. Visit our Events page for more information.
