Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers about ordering, delivery, quotes, accounts, rentals, recipes, and events.

Orders & delivery

What are your operating hours?

Wednesday through Sunday, 11:00 AM to 8:00 PM. Requests outside those hours must use Get a Quote and receive admin approval before checkout.

How far in advance must I order?

Food, catering, booking, and rental orders require at least three calendar days’ notice. Earlier notice is recommended for large events.

Do you offer pickup?

No. Food orders, catering, and rentals are delivery only.

How is the delivery fee calculated?

The first five one-way road miles from our private delivery hub are free. Deliveries over 5 through 10 miles cost $20. Beyond 10 miles, the fee is $20 plus $2 per additional billed mile. Mileage is billed to the nearest 0.05 mile. Tolls, ferries, parking, or exceptional access may cost extra.

Why do you need my address?

The delivery address is used for mileage and fulfillment. A billing address is required so destination-based tax can be estimated and calculated by Square.

Are menu images exact?

Any image marked Reference image is for presentation. The main ordering menu is text-only, and freshly prepared food may vary.

Quotes & payment

Do I need an account to request a quote?

No. Guests may request quotes. An account is required to accept and finalize one.

What is included in a quote?

Food or service cost, delivery and other fees, estimated tax, and estimated total.

What business name will appear with my transaction?

The checkout notice and transaction information identify the business as Fusion Foods LLC.

How is tax handled?

On acceptance, cost and fees go to Square. Square calculates final tax from the billing or delivery address, so estimated tax is not charged twice.

When is an order confirmed?

After availability is approved and required Square payment or deposit is completed.

Are payments refundable?

Payments are generally non-refundable because ingredients, staffing, equipment, and production are reserved. If Fusion Foods cancels an unavailable paid service, the affected amount is refunded or rescheduled.

Accounts & security

What requires an account?

Food orders, catering, rentals, quote acceptance, and recipe purchases. Merchandise allows guest checkout.

How do customers log in?

Customers log in with their confirmed email address and password.

What profile information is required?

First and last name, email, phone, and a primary billing address. Mailing and shipping may be marked the same as billing.

Can I change my account email?

No. The email address used to create an account cannot be changed.

Can I delete my account?

Yes. Account deletion is available under Account information. Deleting an account causes the loss of account history and data.

Can I reset my password?

Yes. Use Forgot password on the login page for an emailed reset link.

Loyalty points

How do I earn points?

Logged-in customers earn 1 point for every $2 actually paid through an eligible completed Square transaction. Regular business accounts earn points only on catering and rental purchases; FF Store, recipe, merchandise, Sunday Special Sale, and standalone service purchases do not earn business-account points.

What are points worth?

Every 100 points equals $1 toward a purchase.

Can points partially pay for an order?

Yes. Available points can reduce part of an order, and the remaining balance is paid through Square.

Can points cover the full purchase?

Yes. When available points cover the full eligible amount, the purchase can be completed with points and no card charge is required.

Where can I see my points?

Open Loyalty points in the customer account dashboard to see the balance and activity history.

Do refunded or canceled purchases earn points?

No. Points apply to completed eligible spending and may be reversed when a payment is refunded, canceled, disputed, or otherwise invalidated.

Rentals & bookings

Can catering and rentals overlap?

The system prevents conflicting confirmed catering and rental reservations and blocks calendar availability.

When do I pay for a rental?

Availability is reviewed first, then the deposit or payment request is sent through Square. If an order contains multiple rentals, only the single highest applicable rental deposit is charged.

What if equipment is damaged?

Applicable cleaning, repair, replacement, loss, theft, damage, or late charges follow the approved rental agreement.

Recipes & merchandise

How much are recipes?

Individual recipe PDFs are $4.99 unless a bundle or ebook shows another price.

Where are purchased recipes stored?

Purchased PDFs remain under Purchased recipes in the customer account.

Can I repurchase a recipe I already own?

Only as a gift. The site asks whether it is a gift, collects the recipient’s email after Yes is selected, and removes the duplicate from the cart when No is selected.

How are recipe gifts delivered?

After completed payment, the recipient receives an email with access to the gifted PDF.

Can I share or resell a recipe PDF?

No. Recipe purchases are for the purchaser’s personal use and may not be redistributed or resold, except through the site’s designated gift-purchase flow.

Who fulfills merchandise?

The shop is designed to use Printful. Guests and account holders may purchase merchandise.

Food & events

Can you accommodate allergies?

Tell us before payment. Our kitchen handles common allergens and cannot guarantee zero cross-contact.

What do Regular and Large party trays mean?

Each listing shows its available sizes. Serving quantities are estimates and vary with portions and menu mix.

Can I request a custom menu?

Yes. Use Get a Quote with the event date, guest count, location, menu ideas, and dietary needs.

Where do confirmed bookings appear?

Logged-in customers can see upcoming and past bookings in their dashboard.

Sunday Special Sale

When can I preorder?

Sunday Special Sale is held every Sunday, while supplies last. Preorders launch Monday and remain open through Saturday for the upcoming Sunday. Same-day Sunday orders are accepted from 3:30 PM through 7:30 PM Pacific time only when the sale has not sold out.

How many orders are accepted?

Only 10 total orders are accepted for each Sunday Special, including preorders and same-day orders, and products are limited to available supply. Sold-out products cannot be ordered. Once the weekly order limit is reached, checkout closes for all remaining preorder and same-day orders.

How many products are promoted?

One product is promoted per Sunday Special week. Products submitted after the Monday launch are queued for a following Sunday. If the scheduled product is unavailable, no Sunday Special promotion appears.

What are the delivery limits?

Local delivery is free only within 10 driving miles from our private delivery hub. Customers outside that area must select buyer-paid USPS shipping.

How do delivery slots work?

Local-delivery preorders may select any 30-minute slot from 3:00–8:00 PM. Same-day local-delivery orders use slots from 3:30–7:30 PM. USPS shipping orders do not select a local delivery time.

When do I pay?

Full Square payment is required before fulfillment. Customers pay for their items and applicable tax. Local delivery within 10 miles is free; USPS shipping is paid by the buyer.

When will my order be fulfilled?

Qualifying local orders are delivered on Sunday. Buyer-paid USPS orders ship on the following Monday.

Business accounts

What can business customers order?

Business customers may request catering, hourly event services, custom quotes, and eligible wholesale frozen foods, jerky, and pickles.

What is the wholesale minimum?

Wholesale frozen-food, jerky, and pickle orders require at least 10 boxes. Catering and event services follow their displayed or quoted minimums instead.

How is wholesale billing scheduled?

Wholesale transactions 1–5 are billed individually when each order is placed. Starting with wholesale transaction 6, billing occurs only after delivery is confirmed.

Does Fusion Foods store card or bank numbers?

No. Card and bank details are entered through Square. Fusion Foods retains secure Square references and limited status information, not raw payment credentials.
