They are the only American snack…

They are the only American snack website I trust 100%. I’ve been ordering with them for around 4 years now. Once they gave me 2 free treats for being a loyal customer and they are quick to help if I’m having order issues.

Excellent service

I’ve done two orders with Candymail, my second arriving today (22.04.2026). I have nothing but positive words to describe them. They have such a broad range of products that constantly changes, they’re excellently and very competitively priced, and their service is top notch. They dispatch quickly, everything comes well packaged and protected. Generally just a very happy customer and will order from them again in future with no hesitation. Definitely the best source of international treats in the U.K. I’ve found by a long way.

Hit n miss

I recently tried a premium Japanese mystery box, and honestly, it was a bit of a letdown. While the idea is exciting, many of the drinks (which there was quite a few off) were essentially the same as what we already have in the UK, just with Japanese packaging. For the price, it didn’t feel worth it

I also tried a USA mystery sweet bag, but I wouldn’t order it again as it was just sour patch kids, and we get there here in UK. While the idea is fun, it didn’t really feel worth it—especially when some of the items are already easy to find here.

I think mystery boxes in general are a bit hit and miss. It’s a nice concept, but next time I’d probably just choose specific items myself instead, so I know I’m getting things I’ll actually enjoy.

Hi there,

Thanks for taking the time to leave such detailed feedback — we really appreciate it 😊

We’d just like to clarify that our Japanese boxes contain authentic products sourced directly from Japan, and all boxes are packed to ensure the full value is there.

That said, we completely understand that perception plays a big part — especially when some flavours or styles may feel familiar to what’s already available in the UK.

For customers who prefer more control, our “Build Your Own Box” option is always available so you can pick exactly what you’d enjoy.

Thanks again for your feedback — it’s always helpful for us to hear.

Chocolate melted during delivery

A great selection of sweets and chocolates, only problem is when ordering in warm weather the chocolate arrives like liquid in the packet.. a shame and a big waste of money :-/

Hi,

Thanks for your feedback — we really appreciate you taking the time to leave a review.

We’re glad you like the selection, but we’re sorry to hear about the chocolate arriving melted.

This is actually quite **rare unless temperatures are particularly warm**, but unfortunately parcels aren’t transported in temperature-controlled vans, so during hotter periods it can sometimes happen in transit.

While the chocolate may not look its best after melting, it is still perfectly fine to eat once cooled.

We do understand it’s not ideal though, and we’ll continue looking at ways to improve this where possible.

Kind regards,
Aaron

This service is INCREDIBLE !!

Everything about this service was amazing! I bought multiple items, at really good prices for Japanese imports, for both me and my girlfriend for her birthday. I didnt pay for express shipping, as I had time available to wait 3-5 days, despite this, it came in TWO DAYS !! The same as express shipping and was sent off almost immediately. The packaging itself was amazingly and professionally well done! I will be using this service from now on and I cannot believe how amazing it is, from the range of imports from various countries to shipping and packaging, it is clear they care about their customers. If you need a service for japanese, American and other Asian imports, THIS is the place. Absolutely incredible. And they had hatsune miku and other anime stuff too which was very helpful for the gifts lol.

Wasn't overall impressed with what I got ordered the £59.99 box. Most of the stuff you could get in other retail shops for fraction of the price

Hi,

Thanks for your feedback — we appreciate you taking the time to leave a review.

That said, it’s worth noting that the **Premium USA mystery box is designed to include a wide range of authentic imported American products**, and we work hard to make sure they’re packed with variety and value.

Mystery boxes are exactly that — **a mix of items chosen for you**, so they won’t always match personal preferences item-for-item. If you’re looking for specific products, we always recommend using the site to **build your own box**, where you can choose exactly what you want.


Kind regards,

Fast delivery

Fast delivery. Amazing products I wouldn’t have been able to taste otherwise. Bought a few time off them now and never had a problem. Plus if items are out of stock but you’ve managed to order them, they go ahead and refund you without issue

As an American living in the U.K.

I recently got an order from a different company of similar items and they came squashed and nearly destroyed, but Candymail's packaging was top tier. And the delivery arrived a day earlier than the earliest estimate. Overall I was very pleased.

Out of date product

Ordered two boxes of mac and cheese however the expiration date says July 2022, so it’s almost 4 years out of date

Hi,

Thank you for your review.

The date format on these products can definitely be confusing.

The stamp **“26 JL 22”** is using a **different date format**, and in this case refers to **22nd July 2026**, not 2022. Some international products use alternative formatting (year/month/day or abbreviated month formats), which can look incorrect at first glance.

So please be assured the product is **not out of date and is safe to consume**.

If you have any further concerns or would like us to double-check anything else, feel free to send over a photo and we’ll be happy to help.

Kind regards,

Aaron

Good variety

Good amount of stuff in the box but I got a lot of Easter themed stuff, it wasn’t advertised as an Easter box and it wasn’t an Easter gift so it felt a bit like they were getting rid of all the stuff they had knocking around the warehouse.

Hi Kate,

Thank you for your review — we really appreciate your feedback 😊

We’re glad to hear you were happy with the overall value, but we’re sorry that the selection felt too Easter-focused.

We do like to include **seasonal products around each time of year** to keep things fun and relevant, but we completely understand that this may not always suit everyone, especially if it’s not specifically expected.

We’ll definitely take this on board as we continue to improve our product mix and descriptions.

Thanks again for your honest feedback — it really helps us improve 💛
