What about ground transport during the summer months? Won't this damage the lollipops by causing them to melt?

You are absolutely correct. Shipping PopArt™ Lollipops in warm weather requires extra care. The pops are made and packed in airtight outer wrappers. When seasonal temperatures are 75 degrees or above, we suggest shipping via Air or 2 day. If you decide you want ground in warmer temperatures, we will honor your request. Finally, we suggest that when you do recieve your order that you store them in a cool area.
