No, you do not pay tariffs directly. When we import products from outside the USA, any tariffs imposed by the government are paid by us as the buyer. These costs may affect our pricing, as higher tariffs can increase what we pay to bring products in. Pricing on items already in stock at our NY location will not change due to new tariffs, but future restocks or new products may reflect these added costs. We do our best to manage these changes while continuing to offer great value.
We offer volume discounts and Super Friday, 30% off Every Friday!. CLICK HERE for all our current offers.

We measure the weight of each product in grams using a kitchen-grade scale, which provides a high level of accuracy. However, due to variations in scales, a small discrepancy of plus or minus 1 gram is possible. We consider this margin acceptable for ensuring accurate measurements of our products.
Additionally, please note that our products are sold by weight, not by volume. This means that the fullness of the packaging can vary depending on the density of the product. For instance, if you order 10 grams each of Sprinkle A and Sprinkle B, you may notice that the bag of Sprinkle B appears less full. This is because Sprinkle B has a higher density, so less product is needed to reach the same weight. To verify, you can weigh the products yourself
Yes we do, Click for our Refund Policy.

Items in your order may originate from different warehouses, resulting in multiple tracking numbers. Each packing slip only lists the items shipped from that particular warehouse. Rest assured, your other items are on the way in a separate package with its own tracking number and itemized packing slip.

To help prevent this, we provide detailed size information in each product description, accompanied by images with rulers and an American quarter for accurate size reference. Here's what you can do if the size of the product is not as you expected:
1. Review the Product Description: Please revisit the product listing and review the size details provided. This will help confirm whether there was a discrepancy between the product received and the description provided.
2. Check Your Order Details: Ensure that the product you received matches the size you ordered. Sometimes, a simple mix-up in ordering can lead to receiving a product of a different size.
3. Contact Us Promptly: If you believe there is a genuine discrepancy between the product received and our detailed description, please contact us immediately. We are committed to resolving any issues and ensuring your satisfaction.
