Frequently Asked Questions

Most Asked Questions

Can I request a specific shipping date or have my order ship beyond the standard processing time?
We understand that timing is important, especially during the holidays. However, at Mary Macleod's Shortbread, we currently process and ship all orders as soon as possible to ensure the freshest quality. This means we’re unable to hold orders for a future ship date or delay them beyond our standard processing time. We recommend placing your order when you're ready for it to be shipped.
Can I visit your location to shop or purchase products?
While we cherish the memories of our bakery days, we are no longer operating as a walk-in bakery. That said, we do offer an option for local customers to place orders online and pick them up at our facility. This allows you to enjoy our handcrafted shortbread without shipping costs. Be sure to select "pickup" at checkout and follow the provided instructions for a smooth experience.
I see bakery images when I search for Mary Macleod's Shortbread on Google. Why is that?
Some images that appear online, including on Google, are user-generated and may date back to when we operated as a full bakery. These images remain on the web because they are publicly contributed, and unfortunately, we don’t have control over removing them. We appreciate your understanding and encourage you to visit our website for the most current and accurate information about our offerings.
Do on-site pickup dates change during the holiday period?
Yes, due to the increased demand during the holiday season, our on-site pickup schedule is adjusted to ensure we can manage the high volume efficiently. In November and December, pickups are available on Thursdays and Fridays only. Once the holiday season concludes, we return to our regular Monday through Friday pickup schedule. We recommend planning ahead during these busy months to secure your preferred pickup time.
Can discount codes be combined?
Only STM codes can be combined with each other to maximize your savings. However, STM codes cannot be combined with rewards codes or other promotional discounts. To get the best out of your shopping experience, we recommend reviewing your discount options and selecting the combination that works best for you.
What is the last date I can place my order for the holidays?
Please see below for the last date to place an order for arrival before Christmas (December 25th). Note, due to increased volumes at this time of year, couriers will not guarantee arrival before Christmas for orders placed in the last 7-10 days prior to Christmas. You may choose a quicker shipping method in the last 1-2 weeks prior to Christmas to ensure your package arrives on time.
