    You can place an order online any time, or by calling during regular business hours. For special requests, please e-mail: orders@fruitobsession.com.
  • How far in advance should I place my order?
    You can place an order well in advance, or order last minute! On weekdays, orders can be placed for same day store delivery until 5pm local time. For business deliveries, and during busy holiday time periods like Christmas, Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day, we recommend that you order further in advance. Orders for Saturday and Sunday store delivery should be placed before 3pm local (store) time. For catering (extra large bouquets, multiple platters, etc.) items, orders can NOT be placed same day. Items can only be purchased for next day or future dates.
  • How do I cancel or change an order already placed?
    If you need to cancel an order scheduled for pickup or delivery, please contact the store at least 24 hours prior to the scheduled delivery or pickup with your request. If your order has left the store for delivery or has already been delivered, we will be unable to cancel your order.
  • What if I didn’t see a confirmation page and/or didn’t receive an email confirmation?
    If you do not receive an order confirmation email, it is possible that your email address was entered incorrectly. Keep in mind that there may be a delay in the delivery of your order confirmation email. Due to the high volume of orders we receive, particularly around busy holidays like Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day, you may not receive your email confirmation immediately after placing your order. If you didn’t receive any of the order confirmation messages, please contact the store as soon as possible. We recommend that you do not attempt to submit the order again to avoid placing duplicate orders.
  • Will I receive an order receipt/order confirmation?
    Yes. First, if you place your order online, you will see a confirmation page after you process your order. We recommend that you print this confirmation page and keep it for your records.
  • What payment methods do you accept?
    We accept all major credit cards online, including Google and Apple pay. At the store, we accept credit, debit and/or cash.
  • When will my credit card be charged?
    Your credit card will be charged at the time the order is placed.
  • Is there sales tax on my order?
    All store orders (for pickup or delivery) are subject to HST. All prices listed exclude HST (13%) which will be added at final checkout.
  • Is it safe to use my credit card online?
    Yes; we never send personal information, such as your credit card number, over the network in a way that is readable to anyone but us. We encrypt your information and send it over the Internet using SSL (secure socket layer) technology. Our store is hosted on the Shopify platform and is very secure.
  • I think I may have been charged twice on my credit card. Can you help?
    Absolutely. The first thing you should do is check to see if the charge you are seeing is actually a temporary hold, or pending transaction. If this is the case, you have not actually been charged. Credit card transactions are authorized in two steps. In the first step, the payment gateway says “I want to charge $xx to card Y.” If the card has these funds available, the card company places a provisional hold on those $xx and responds OK back to the gateway. Along with that response, the card company sends the gateway some account information (such as the cardholder address). The gateway then performs the second part of the validation, checking this address against the billing address you supplied. If this match fails, the gateway tells both us and the card issuer. The funds that were placed under hold are never captured—you will not be charged. However, it’s important to note that some card issuers release these held funds in a batch process, typically one that runs overnight. Because of this, you may see the held transaction appearing in your online credit card statement for a day or two. The time is takes to release your funds is dependent entirely on your bank or credit card company.
  • Shipping & Delivery
