Q. Do my fortune cookies come individually wrapped?

A. Yes, they do! All cookies will arrive at your door as fresh as fresh can be. That's because we bake your order fresh, then seal in the freshness by individually wrapping each cookie. It also adds extra cushioning to protect your order during shipping (See: Won't my cookies break during shipping?) [Top]

A. On average, the total processing time is approximately 7 business days from the time we receive your signed approval form (plus shipping time).

Q. What different flavors do you have?

A. Original flavor... plus these ten different deliciously fun flavors... Luscious Lemon™, Passion Fruit Punch™, True Blue Blueberry™, Very Berry Raspberry™, Outrageous Orange™, Toasted Coconut™, Wild Cherry™, Minty Mint™, Cool Cappucino™, Double Chocolate™, and Spam™ flavored... just kidding.[Top]


Q. How many different flavors can I get?

A. While we specialize in making near miracles happen for you, there are some limitations. Orders containing multiple flavors or other special requests need to be evaluated on a case-by-case basis and approved by our Production Manager. Because of the equipment used and the variance in the number of orders in house at any one time, certain orders will require advance approval. Call 888.776.6611 for details.[Top]

Q. Can I get a custom wrapper?

A. Yes. Custom wrappers are our specialty. Call us for details. [Top]


Q. How long will your fortune cookies stay fresh?

A. That's an important question. A fortune cookie, is a fortune cookie, is a fortune cookie. At least when it comes to shelf life. They are considered a non-perishable food & although some fortune cookie companies claim their cookies will stay fresh for 6 or 8 months, I say you should...

Plan on using them up in 3 months or less! I guess I could say longer, but I want my gourmet special flavors to be used and enjoyed while still at the peak of crunchiness. To maximize their tastiness, fortune cookies should always be stored in a cool, DRY place. They should not be exposed to humidity and/or temperatures over 78 degrees. [Top]


Q. What makes Fancy Fortune Cookies different from other fortune cookie companies?

A. Incredible yummy flavor. Fancy Fortune Cookies® are just not colored, but deliciously flavored through and through. Truly developed for the gourmet taste bud and smart shopper. Not just a cookie, but an "oriental experience."

Your order is shipped the same day they are baked. So you never have to worry about stale or rubbery cookies. [Top]


Q. Are all fortune cookies the same and why shouldn't I use the cheapest company?

A. No! All fortune cookie companies are not the same. Just like when you are buying gourmet chocolates or fine wine -- you get what you pay for. Compare these 17 special points before you make up your mind. [Top]


Q. What is the minimum amount of fortune cookies I can order with my own custom message or image inside?

A. 50 fortune cookies is the smallest amount we make at a time. [Top]


Q. Can I get my logo put on our fortunes?

A. Absolutely! Logos are $50.00 extra and you must supply us with good black and white camera ready art or a disk. [Top]

Q. Are your fortune cookies and facility nut free? Are there any other allergies that I should be concerned about?
A. While our fortune cookies are nut free, as of December 1, 2009 our facility is not. We have added new products like the Gigantic M&M's Fortune Cookie and a Gourmet Hazelnut Giant Fortune Cookie. While these are contained to our chocolate dipping room, we cannot guarantee there is no cross contamination. We use an old-fashioned recipe for all our gourmet fortune cookies that includes real wheat flour, eggs, and pure sugar cane sugar. While our cookies are dairy free our chocolate is not. So if lactose is a concern feel free to taste any of our flavored cookies, but please do not have the chocolate covered fortune cookies.

Q. Can I get my custom sayings done in other languages?

A. Yes! You'll simply send us camera ready copy or artwork in the format needed. If there are no special symbols, no camera ready art is necessary. [Top]
