Orders Processing

Our confections are hand-made and baked to order in small batches. We need 1-2 day's notice and 3-5 days for Catering 

depending on the quantity to ensure fresh and high-quality confections. Thank you for your understanding :)

​

Catering & Wholesale

Once the details of your order are finalized, we will email you a quote confirmation for your review and approval. Once the order is confirmed please refer to the payment terms for you to send your bank transfer accordingly. We require at least 5 days advance notice for confirmed orders. An 80% deposit of the total of the order must be transferred to secure you a baking slot and the 20% remaining must be transferred the day before the collection/delivery date. The local delivery cost is $10. All orders must be paid in full before pickup/delivery. For catering orders, we only accept bank transfers.  The confections are individually wrapped in greaseproof plant-based wax bake cups and packed in catering boxes. 

​

Shipping locally and within NZ

You can place your order any day of the week 24/7 and choose to pick it up or deliver it locally. Shipping within NZ through the New Zealand Post service is available (North and South Islands) and we only deliver to physical addresses within New Zealand. Parcels are shipped using "signature required". We are sorry, but deliveries cannot be serviced to PO Box addresses. SweetArgentos puts a lot of effort, passion and care into manufacturing our products to reach our clients in the same perfect way they leave our premises. While we send our orders through a 3rd. party, in this case, the NZ Post without any issues, we want our clients to know it will be out of our control in the event that there may be delays, missing or damaged parcels. Parcels for delivery will be left at the front door unless special instructions are given during the purchase process.
