For those times when you need to send chocolate in a rush, we now offer the option to send your order using our next-day courier service. The order must be placed by 1pm MST if the chocolate is to arrive at its destination the next business day.

We have just added credit card payments to our site to make shopping more convenient and hassle-free. We have chosen to use PayPal as our credit card processor, but it is not neccessary to join PayPal to buy from Kerstin’s Chocolates. If you would like to pay by cheque, please feel free to order by phone , as we will no longer be able to take cheque orders on the web site.
