This review is left for Gordon Fenton … I actually got sent the incorrect Monin pump along with my order - but have been reassured and offered a replacement asap… Gordon has been very helpful and I trust that this will be resolved- quickly.

Just ordered and paid for some chocolate chips online and then as soon as I placed the order realised I had forgotten to include cocoa powder. I telephoned immediately to ask if could add to the order and thus avoid a second expensive Saturday delivery charge. Not possible I was told. Really? Unbelievable! Even if the original order could not be altered, I would have thought that it could have been cancelled giving me the opportunity to then place a revised order to include the cocoa. Seemingly not. I won't be using CFW again.

I wish I'd found CFW sooner
I had my first order delivered 3 days ago. Unfortunately DPD tossed my order about resulting in a box wide open and 5kg bars of chocolate burst open and smashed to bits. CFW have been amazing at resolving this and my replacements arrived today intact. I honestly can't thank Gordon enough who kept me up to date with everything and dealt with the issue professionally.
Its not about the issues its about how they are handled
Ordered a chocolate Melter on the 10th December 2025 that said in highlighted text "Order for next day dispatch"- heard nothing for a week and chased it up and got told it hadn't been dispatched yet plus it was being dispatched from Italy and I wouldn't receive it until the 6th Jan - so I said cancel please and refund and they said I cant as its been dispatched (this was within about 30 mins of being told it hadn't been dispatched)
Response To CFW Response - I am glad that is now sorted finally and appreciate the full refund- in business its tough and its never about the mistakes or misunderstandings, its about how they are dealt with, its was a slow start but mutually agreeable solution - Thanks

YES THEY MIGHT BE CHEAP BUT ONLY ORDER IF YOURE READY FOR A HEADACHE
They’re cheap for a reason. Ordered from Nisbets and never encountered any issues with any of my products. Their customer service is poor and the advisors have more time going back and forth being keyboard warriors instead of dealing with my request. First and last time ordering from them. Ordered White Chocolate sauces which I use for my business and been advised to microwave them as they separate whilst in the warehouse. Joke.

Warehouse error - no compensation.
Unfortunately, CFW sent me the incorrect item, which resulted in the loss of a £400 customer. I had ordered white chocolate melts, but instead received milk chocolate. While I understand that mistakes can happen, this error had serious consequences for my business. The booking was for the following day, and the client specifically requested a white chocolate fountain to match their event aesthetics. They chose to cancel the service entirely when the correct product wasn’t available.
When I called to resolve the issue, I was informed that the replacement wouldn’t arrive until Monday, which was too late for the Saturday event. Additionally, I have not yet received a refund for the delivery charge, which I am entitled to, as the item delivered was incorrect.

I bought a large chocolate fountain with sneeze guard last summer for a party. No probs with payment, delivery came quickly, it was fast to set up and easy to operate and to clean up. It was a massive hit with the guests and especially the kids. Couldn't ask for more.
Amazing company
Amazing company, amazing customer care! Nicola went out and about to get my chocolate mousse despite a very bad service from DPD. Products are over the top, good prices and as far my business requirements I will order again.
