Hi Lisa, thank you for your feedback and apologies for the delay. Please accept our apologies for the inconvenience it has caused you.
I can see your parcel has been shipped and is currently being held for clearance at customs.

Once a parcel leaves us, it is difficult to control what happens and if customs decides to hold it for testing. Customs clearance has always been out of our hands and we do suggest in our terms and conditions that customers need to check this area – especially if they live outside of New Zealand and or Australia, as you do.

Agar agar best for making my vegan Turkish Delight

Your agar agar is distinctly different in taste from other brands I have used to make my vegan Turkish Delight - it is a WINNER. The other brands have an after taste that is unpleasant- I don’t know how to describe the taste other than to say it taste like a chemical.

Thank you so much for your comments Susie. We have had this feedback from other customers - we work hard to ensure no/absolute minimal processing of our seaweeds, to keep them as mother nature intended! Glad you are finding it works for you too!
