Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Considering 710 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers frequently praise the wide and unique selection of products, including items that are hard to find elsewhere, making it a go-to for international snacks and drinks. The delivery service is consistently highlighted as fast and efficient, with many orders arriving quickly and even earlier than expected. Reviewers also appreciate the excellent packaging, noting that items, especially fragile ones, are securely wrapped and arrive undamaged, ensuring product integrity. However, some customers were dissatisfied with delivery delays, receiving orders much later than anticipated, which caused disappointment, especially for gifts. A few other people also felt that the presentation of mystery boxes was underwhelming, and some products arrived past their best-before date or were damaged, with slow or no response from customer service.

We ordered our favourite cream soda from Candymail, and it arrived safely and quickly. Lots of polystyrene packing though...so some recycled materials would be better but overall a good experience.

Hi Joanne,

Thank you for your review and for your kind comments about our delivery 😊

We’re very sorry to hear that the creamer you received was past its best before date — this shouldn’t have happened without being clearly indicated on the product listing.

Please could you email us at info@candymail.co.uk
with a photo of the item and the date shown? We’d like to look into this for you properly and get it resolved.

Thanks again for bringing this to our attention, and we’re glad the rest of your order arrived quickly and safely.

Kind regards,
Aaron

Unique range of products

Although a lot of my favourite products are often out of stock (hopefully to return at a later date) this is an excellent vendor with a great range of products and a really good loyalty scheme. Delivery is secure via Royal Mail and there are regular discounts offered.

Lovely team! Amazing products.

I emailed them after placing the order to check it would arrive in time for my brother’s birthday and they emailed straight back a lovely personal email and it was shipped straight away! Would 100% use them again.

Check the best before dates carefully!

One of the products arrived past the best before. This had not been indicated on the website, and it was still full price. Other than that, very positive! A great range and everything we ordered arrived quickly in secure packaging. Prices aren't too bad for most things given costs of securing them from other countries.

Hi Katy,

Thank you for your feedback and for your kind comments about the range, packaging, and delivery — we really appreciate it.

I’m sorry to hear one of the items appeared to be past its best-before date. With many imported products, the date format can sometimes be different from the UK standard (for example MM/DD/YY instead of DD/MM/YY), or in some cases the printed date may actually be the manufacturing date rather than a best-before date.

If you could please email us at info@candymail.co.uk with the name of the item, we’ll be happy to look into this for you and make sure everything is correct.

Thanks again for bringing it to our attention.

Kind regards,
Aaron

The website was easy to navigate and…

The website was easy to navigate and find my favourite (and new favourite) sweets! An opportunity to purchase in small quantities just in case something wasn't to my taste.

Delivery was quick and included a couple of extra goodies to put a cherry on top of a best shopping experience .. thanks, Candymail!

Absolutely NO aftersales support.

Absolutely NO aftersales support.
Made a small order that was to be delivered to France (total with shipping was less than 25 sterling. Order appeared to go out fast...and that is when things went down. I noticed the order made it to France, but sat in customs for over 3 days, and according to Candymail, it is still in customs, in France. I sent 2 emails asking for help/clarification on what was happening with the order....After 4 days still no response from the company. Once the purchase is made and they have their money, there is absolutely NO after sales support and they don't care about the customer. If you are having anything shipped outside the UK from Candymail, good luck. It as now been almost 10 days since placing the order and 8 since it was shipped and I have not received it yet nor a response/support from Candymail.

Hi Randell,

Thank you for your message.

We did reply to your previous email, although it was a little later than our usual response time, so we do apologise for the delay on this occasion.

I’ve checked the tracking again on our side and it now shows that your parcel has been delivered.

When parcels are sent internationally, it’s quite common for tracking to show “in customs” for a few days while the shipment is being processed. Unfortunately this stage is handled entirely by the local customs authority and courier, so we don’t have the ability to speed it up or receive detailed updates during that time.

From dispatch to delivery, your order took around 5 working days, which is actually quite quick for an international shipment.


Kind regards,
Aaron

Return customer

Have used Candymail many times and never had any complaints from my kids, its a great way to experience drinks, candy and snacks from different countries. Have tried other stores but they have never been as good as candymail. Good communication, good products and well packaged.
