Iowa 2026 Advent Calendar

Refrigeration 

All items are non-perishable, and refrigeration is not needed upon receipt of the box.

Allergens

Calendars are not allergen or gluten free. Every calendar has one or more items that contain these ingredients: Peanuts, tree nuts, milk, egg, wheat, and soybean. 

Each day within the box is individually packaged and labeled by the individual vendors.

When will the calendars be delivered?

24-Day Advent calendars will be delivered prior to Thanksgiving, generally in mid-November, regardless of the order date.  12-Day treat boxes will begin shipping the first week of December. 

What shipping options are available?

Shipping is free in the contiguous United States. (Hawaii and Alaska will have an extra shipping charge applied during checkout.) 

We ship to APO addresses, which can be selected during the checkout process. Boxes shipped to the APOs may not arrive before Thanksgiving. 

Unfortunately, we do not offer international shipping at this time, but you’re welcome to ship calendars yourself overseas. To help you calculate the postage, know that the box weighs 6.5 lbs. The physical box dimensions are 21 inches high x 14 inches wide x 4 inches.

Can I ship calendars to multiple addresses? 

Yes! Please create separate orders to ensure you receive an individual tracking number for each box.

For corporate orders of 25 or more, please contact us at support@deliciousfooddelivered.com.

The physical box is 21 inches high x 14 inches wide x 4 inches, with each daily item being contained within a 3 inch square cube.

Gifting

Can I send it as a gift?

Absolutely. Enter their address at checkout and we'll ship it straight to them. Ordering for several people? Place separate orders, or reach out and we'll help.

Can I include a message that the gift recipient sees?

Yes! You can add a gift message at checkout. If you’re unable to add a message at checkout for any reason, email us your order number and gift message and we'll add the message for you.

Will the price be printed on the packaging slip? 

No. We know many of these orders are gifts, so we never show prices anywhere in the shipping materials. 

General Questions

When will I be charged?

Today. Reserving your calendar is a full purchase—that's how we guarantee your box in a small-batch run.

When does it ship?

Calendars ship in November, in time to open daily door number one on December 1st. You'll get tracking the moment yours is on its way.

Can I use a gift card? 

Yes! To do so, please email support@deliciousfooddelivered.com and we'll place the order for you. 

Do you offer corporate/bulk discounts?

Corporate discounts are available on orders of 25+ calendars. Please email support@deliciousfooddelivered.com for more information or to place a corporate order. Learn more about corporate and bulk orders.

Are you real?

Yes! Delicious Food Delivered is run by the same people behind Milwaukee Food Tours, Chicago Food Tours, Detroit Food and City Tours, and Travel Deliciously. We know it is nerve-racking to place an order online and not know the seller. Please don't hesitate to call us directly at 888-426-1993 if you prefer to place the order by phone. You can also follow us on Facebook or read our online reviews for further confidence before placing your order. 

If I wait and buy this next week, will it be sold out? 

We've sold out multiple years in a row by early November, so we encourage you to place your orders before it’s too late.

Once the gift boxes are sold out, they’re gone until next year.

Are there repeat vendors?

Returning state calendars each feature 6 - 12 new vendors or products.

If you are interested in an experience with entirely new treats this season, I encourage you to consider purchasing or gifting one of our other state offerings.
