In the past, Dolce Confections had to scramble every time they got a delivery. It was stressful figuring out who would be delivering an order and when. “It was always a struggle because by the time I got back, there’d be another delivery,” said Julie Ahmad of Dolce Confections. She added, “It’s really not feasible for us to do all of our own deliveries around the holidays. We always had to have extra help.”
