Return and Refund Policy
Returns
Our return and refund policies last for 14 days from the date of purchase. If 14 days have passed by since your purchase, unfortunately we can’t offer you a refund or exchange. This includes items purchased as gifts and applies to the gift giver and receiver.
To be eligible for a return, your item must be unused and in the same condition that you received it. It must also be in the original packaging.
Several types of goods are exempt from being returned. Perishable goods and personal use items such as food, candy, flowers, soaps, lotions, cosmetics, newspapers or magazines cannot be returned. Gift cards and downloadable software products are also non-returnable items.
To complete your return, we require a receipt or proof of purchase (even if it was a gift). Please send an item return request email to gourmetworks2021@gmail.com notifying the store of your desire to return any items prior to returning them.
Please do not send your purchase back to the manufacturer. Gourmet Works will provide you shipping instructions by responding to the above aforementioned emailed return request. The items will be returned to Gourmet Works, 334 Main Street, Los Altos, CA 94022 unless notified differently in the email correspondence.
Refunds (if applicable)
Once your return is received and inspected, we will send you an email to notify you that we have received your returned item. We will also notify you of the approval or rejection of your refund.
If you are approved, then your refund will be processed, and a credit will automatically be applied to your credit card or original method of payment, within a certain amount of days.
