Product Quality
Q: Are your flowers and gifts as beautiful as the product photos?
A: Yes, we deliver such beautiful and bright bouquets. You can see delivery confirmations on our Photos of Delivery page and Facebook.
Q: Are the foods in baskets fresh? Are flowers in bouquets fresh?
A: We don't have pre-made food baskets or flower bouquets. Every basket is created with freshly bought products, and our florists compose bouquets using the freshest flowers from refrigerated storage. It's like having something made right before your eyes.
Q: Why don't you deliver dozen-rose bouquets?
A: In Ukrainian tradition, giving an even number of flowers is unlucky. We respect this cultural custom.
Q: Why are tulips not always available?
A: Tulips are seasonal flowers, even though we use imported blooms from the Netherlands. They're primarily available from January to May. For other times, our professional florists can suggest beautiful alternatives.
Q: Why are some cakes so expensive?
A: We offer two types of cakes: mass-produced ones from supermarkets/large bakeries (like "Kyivskiy" or "Praha") and exclusive cakes from private French-style bakeries. The latter are more expensive but offer premium quality. These specialty bakeries are mainly in large cities like Kyiv, Odesa, Kharkiv, and Dnipro. Please inquire before ordering.
