If you do not agree with these Terms, please do not use our website or purchase products through our online store.
2. Products and Availability
Sweet’n Barrel specializes in small-batch ice cream and frozen desserts. Our flavors, ingredients, packaging, and product availability may change seasonally or without advance notice.

Certain flavors may sell out or become temporarily unavailable.

Product appearances may vary slightly from photographs.

We reserve the right to limit quantities or discontinue products.

We may correct product descriptions, pricing errors, or other inaccuracies.
If an item becomes unavailable after purchase, we will contact you to arrange an appropriate substitution, replacement, or refund.

We reserve the right to decline or cancel orders for legitimate reasons, including suspected fraud, product unavailability, or fulfillment limitations. If we cancel a paid order, we will refund the amount paid for the canceled items.
4. Pickup and Delivery
Sweet’n Barrel products are perishable and require proper temperature-controlled handling.
For orders offered through local pickup or delivery:

Customers must follow the pickup or delivery instructions provided during checkout or in their order confirmation.
-
Pickup orders should be collected during the designated pickup window.
-
Delivery availability and applicable fees will be communicated during checkout.

Any additional shipping or delivery terms will be disclosed when those services are offered.
5. Food Allergies and Dietary Information
Sweet’n Barrel produces ice cream and frozen desserts using a variety of ingredients, including dairy, soy, coconut, tree nuts, and other potential allergens.
Although we take precautions during production and handling, products may be prepared using shared equipment or within shared facilities.
We cannot guarantee that any product is completely free from allergen cross-contact.
Customers with food allergies or dietary restrictions should carefully review available ingredient and allergen information and contact us before purchasing if clarification is needed.
Products labeled dairy-free or vegan are made without intentionally added dairy or animal-derived ingredients, respectively, but may be produced in facilities that also handle milk and other allergens.
6. Returns, Refunds, and Cancellations
Due to the perishable nature of our products, we generally do not accept returns or exchanges.
Refunds, replacements, and cancellations are handled according to our separate Return & Refund Policy, available on our website.
Customers should report concerns about incorrect, damaged, or compromised products within 24 hours of receipt whenever possible.
Nothing in these Terms excludes rights or remedies that cannot legally be limited.
7. Product Storage and Food Safety
Our frozen desserts must be kept at appropriate frozen-storage temperatures to preserve their quality and safety.
Customers are responsible for following any storage instructions provided on product labels or packaging.
