What is On-demand delivery and why it is expensive?
On-demand delivery is a premium service designed for customers who need their sweet treats delivered on a specific day, particularly for special events or occasions. It's perfect for those who can't make it to our Eastwood location for pickup.
Here's why it's more expensive than our other shipping options:
Personalised Service: It's a one-to-one service provided by our shipping partner, ensuring your order is handled with extra care and delivered directly to your doorstep on preferred day.
Distance-Based Pricing: The delivery fee is calculated based on the distance from pickup location to your delivery address. This reflects the actual cost of getting your order to you.
Driver Compensation: Our delivery drivers are paid on an hourly basis, ensuring fair compensation for their time and effort in bringing you your delicious treats.
While on-demand delivery is a more expensive option, it offers unparalleled convenience and flexibility, making it ideal for those special occasions when you need your order delivered without any worries.
Why are standard/express shipping options not available for my order?
Some of our delicious treats, such as cakes and dessert cups, are too delicate to be shipped via standard or express methods. To ensure they arrive in perfect condition, we only offer these items for local on-demand delivery within Sydney or for pickup from our Eastwood location.
When should I choose standard/express shipping instead of on-demand delivery?
Standard/Express shipping is a great option when:
You're not in a rush: If you don't need your order immediately and are happy to wait a few days, standard shipping is a more cost-effective option. For example, if you live in Sydney and you're ordering Besan Laddoo and Nankhatai Cookies for a casual get-together next week, standard shipping is perfectly fine.
Your order doesn't include delicate items: Cakes, dessert cups, and other fragile treats are only available for on-demand delivery or local pickup. If your order doesn't include these items, standard shipping is a viable choice. For instance, if you're ordering Mango Laddoo box standard shipping is a great way to save some money.
You're outside the on-demand delivery zone: We only offer on-demand delivery to select Sydney suburbs. If you're located outside this zone, standard shipping (or express if you need it faster) is your best bet.
Remember, standard/express shipping is a reliable and affordable option for most orders. If you have any questions about which shipping method is right for you, don't hesitate to contact us. We're happy to help!
