Question 3

M&M'S Milk Chocolate Candies are labeled "May Contain Peanuts"– does this also apply to custom printed M&M'S Milk Chocolate Candies?

Accepted Answer

Custom printed M&M'S Milk Chocolate Candies are made in facilities that also process peanuts so all packages and party favors are labeled "May Contain Peanuts".

Question 4

Is this product kosher?

Accepted Answer

Yes! M&M'S Milk Chocolate Candies that are produced and sold in the United States are kosher.

Question 5

How should I store my candies until my event?

Accepted Answer

M&M'S can be stored in the shipping container until you deliver them to a lucky recipient, serve them at a party, or eat them yourself!

M&M'S don't love extreme temperatures or refrigerators. Ideally, store them between 65 and 75 degrees F.

Question 6

Are all 24 colors available for custom printing?

Accepted Answer

We love ALL the colors. But do you know what we love even more? Good quality and your satisfaction. So, to make sure the printing shows up and the quality on your customized M&M'S is great, you can personalize 19 out of our 24 colors, (aqua, blue, cream, dark green, dark pink, electric green, dark yellow, green, light blue, light purple, pearl, platinum, light pink, orange, red, silver, teal, white, and yellow).

Inclusion is the name of our game so feel free to include the other five colors in your mix (black, dark blue, maroon, purple & brown). They can be blended with your order but cannot be personalized.

Question 7

What are the image requirements for printing on the candies?

Accepted Answer

**Image Requirements (Photos will be rejected if guidelines are not followed)**

* Only 1-2 faces cheek to cheek. Close-ups and images with minimal backgrounds will produce the best results.

* Do not upload photos with detailed backgrounds. Backgrounds are removed. No landscape pictures.

* You must upload a .jpg file between 5 & 15MB. The higher the quality, the better. The system will not allow images larger than 15MB.

HINT: Images and designs print better on light colored M&M’S.

**For logos:**

* Submitted photos must be your own private property.

* M&M'S® will not print any copyrighted or trademarked images or logos, unless the proper legal permission has been obtained from the owner.

* For more information about logo printing, please contact our [Business Consultants](/contact "Contact us") directly.

Question 8

What color is the custom printing text?

Accepted Answer

Custom printed messages, faces, & logos are printed in black ink and the "m" is printed in light gray. We're going to let you in on a secret. The two different sides are printed with two different magic candy printing machines and each has it's own unique edible ink.

Question 9

Is the "message" safe to eat?

Accepted Answer

Yes! The ink in our magic candy printing machine is made from all food-grade ingredients. And, all equipment, packaging, and methods meet our high standards of food safety purity, and quality. Consider the 'm' on every piece of candy our promise to you.

Question 10

Is there an "m" on the product?

Accepted Answer

Yes, there is always an "m" on one side of each piece of candy. Consider the "m" our stamp of quality, a promise of deliciousness, and an invitation for everyone to have some fun. It's what sets us apart.

Question 11

Can I print anything on the candies?

Accepted Answer

You can print ALMOST anything on your candy. Because M&M'S delivers fun for all, we have a few guardrails to be sure we don't leave a bad taste in anyone's mouth.

Each candy can be printed with up to 2 lines of text with a maximum of 9 characters per line. You can print up to 4 different messages in the same order for the same cost. A few rules to keep it fun and tasteful:

* Please don't use objectionable words and phrases. No obscenities or inappropriate images.

* Custom Printed M&M'S are for personal use only. That means no images or names that belong to a business, product, celebrity, specific sports teams, major events, landmarks, or schools or institutions.

* We take great pride in the history of M&M'S products, so the only single letter we print on our candy is the letter "m".

* To avoid any confusion and keep everyone safe, we will not print any reference to drugs or prescription items, especially those that are in pill or capsule form.

Each order is reviewed after submission and an email will be sent back to you if one or more of the rules are not followed and you will be asked to update your order. If you do not update your order, it will be delayed, and ultimately canceled if there is no response.

Question 12

Can I print individual message(s) or image(s) by bag or color?

Accepted Answer

Our magic candy printing machine doesn't know how to discriminate one color from another! So, when printing messages on M&M'S Chocolate candies, we evenly distribute the messages or graphics throughout all of the colors within your order. You can't specify that one message or graphic remain on one color only.

We can print one message per color by entering separate orders with one message and one color per order. Each separate order will still require a minimum purchase per order.

Question 13

Can I bake with my personalized M&M’S?

Accepted Answer

Customized M&M'S don't like the heat of the oven. We don't recommend baking with them as it will distort or erase your personalized message or designs. However, you can use them for decoration on baked and cooled cookies or cakes. They also love to be mixed into popcorn or snack mixes. Follow us on Pinterest and Instagram or Like us on Facebook for ideas.

Question 14

Can I order customized peanut or dark chocolate M&M'S?

Accepted Answer

Currently, our magic candy printing machine only works on M&M'S Milk Chocolate Candies. You can order Peanut M&M'S and other fun flavors on our website.

Question 15

Can I cancel or modify my order?

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately, once your order is placed, due to the special care that goes into creating your order, we are unable to cancel it. This is to ensure we meet the quality and service expectations you expect from M&M’S. Because of our speedy process, cancellations and modifications are not accepted once your order is submitted. Whatever your change of circumstances, we hope that someone will be able to enjoy your M&M'S!

Question 16

What form of payments does M&M’S accept?

Accepted Answer

M&M’S accepts the following forms of payments through our secure system:

* Visa

* MasterCard

* Discover

* American Express

* Paypal

Question 17

When do you charge my card?

Accepted Answer

M&M'S charges your credit card when your order is shipped. However, at the time you place your order and enter your credit card, we pre-authorize for the amount of the items you’ve ordered plus applicable shipping fees and sales tax with your credit or debit card issuer. This may have an impact on your account balance. If you need additional information on card authorizations and charges, call the customer service phone number on the back of your card. We are more chocolate experts, they are more money people.

Question 18

Can I use a debit card?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we accept debit cards as a form of payment. However, please note that we authorize debit cards and credit cards at the point of sale but we do not charge your card until your order has shipped. This can be mistaken for double billing and may impact your available balance. Each financial institution is different. Please refer to the issuing bank of your debit card for their specific authorization processes. We are more chocolate experts, they are more money people.

Question 19

Why isn’t my order going through?

Accepted Answer

For starters, double check that the billing address that you entered matches the billing address for the credit or debit card that you’re using. To protect you and our customers, we partner with banks for address verification and if they don’t match exactly, the card may not be authorized for payment. If the billing addresses match and you are still having issues, please text or call our Customer Care Team at 1-888-696-6788, Mon - Fri, 9am - 5:30pm, ET.

Question 20

My promotion code doesn’t work/ I’m not getting my discount. Can you help?

Accepted Answer

There are a few things to double check if your promotion code isn't working. Some items are not eligible for promotions, such as clearance items and other specialty products. You can find promotion details at the top of the home page.

Only one promotion code can be used per order. Double check your code and type it into the Coupon Code field found on the shopping cart page or in the Coupon Code field found on the billing page at checkout.

Question 23

I typed in an incorrect billing address when checking out – how can I fix this?

Accepted Answer

Incorrect billing addresses may cause issues during check out when the cardholder information doesn’t match the mailing address where your credit card statements are sent. Aside from this security check, once an order is placed and an order confirmation e-mail is sent, an incorrect billing address causes no problems.

Question 24

Can I change the shipping address after I placed an order?

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately, once your order is placed, we are unable to make any changes to the shipping addresses. Please make sure the shipping address is correct before submitting your order. We are also unable to cancel the order after it is placed as per above.

Question 25

Can I place my order now and have it shipped at a future date?

Accepted Answer

We only deliver bad news when we can follow with good news. Unfortunately, we do not offer future delivery dates. We've developed an extremely streamlined and efficient production process, which enables us to deliver a lot of candy to a lot of people. In order to stick to our deliver promises, we will deliver your product at the estimated time on our website when you place your order.

Ready for the good news? M&M'S Chocolate Candies will last for nearly a year so you can order now and save your personalized creation for a future event. However, always refer to the Best Before Date on your specific package to ensure it is consumed at peak quality. Simply remove the candies from their original box, keep them in their sealed bag, store them at room temperature (between 65–75°F, do not refrigerate), and keep them out of direct sunlight.

Question 26

Will M&M’S refund a personalized item if I misspell a name?

Accepted Answer

M&M’S is not responsible for misspellings or other personalization errors once you have approved the personalized item on your order. We will not refund consumer spelling errors.

Question 27

Why was my personalized order cancelled?

Accepted Answer

M&M’S looks at all orders placed with personalization. If we think the personalization contains an offensive name or word, is trademarked or if the image would not print to our standards, we may have to cancel the order. We will make several attempts to reach you prior to cancelling. If you would still like the product, please place a new order.

Accepted Answer

Yes! There are 2 options and because some situations are unique, there are some exceptions. Read more below or if you would rather talk to a person, text or call our Customer Care Team at 1-888-696-6788 with questions:

**Orders up to $1,000:**

* **Standard:** Arrives within 5-7 business days from the date you place the order & costs $9.99

* **Express:** Arrives in 1-2 business days from the date you place the order & costs $29.99. For AK and HI, read below.

**Orders over $1,000:**

* **Standard:** Shipping over $1,000 is a flat rate of $75. Certain orders may be subject to additional shipping fees based on carrier shipping requirements.

* **Express:** Shipping over $1,000 is a flat rate of $100. Certain orders may be subject to additional shipping fees based on carrier shipping requirements.

**Alaska, Hawaii, and International:** If you are an M&M'S lover in AK and HI, unfortunately we can't use Standard Shipping (it's too far from our candy factory to travel via truck) so we must charge an Express rate which is an additional $20 (which means your package gets a fancy plane ride). At this time, we don't ship to Canada.

Shipping timelines will be extended if your order is held up for any reason such as a trademarked image on personalized M&M'S or payment issues. Our Customer Care Team will reach out to you in this situation. If you don't hear from us, your sweet treats are on track. Be sure your contact information on the order is correct so we can get your M&M'S in your hands as quickly as possible.
