    With offers for free shipping and promotional discount codes, sending a special military care package may be more affordable than you think!

    Our deployed military service members work far from home and family, under often difficult conditions. Their jobs can be dangerous and stressful. Receiving a care package can be a much needed morale boost!

    Care packages can be homemade or purchased. It doesn’t matter which. The bottom line is that when you send a care package, you are sending a reminder that our deployed troops are appreciated. Sending a special care package hug of support can be easy and surprisingly affordable using these Companies that Ship Sweets to APO/FPO Addresses!

    Tips to Consider When Choosing Companies that Ship Sweets to APO/FPO Addresses

    • There are many more companies not on this list that will ship to APO/FPO addresses with domestic shipping charges. Because those shipping charges can add significant cost, I didn't include them in this resource guide.
    • I DO include a few companies that offer regional specialties that would definitely help send a piece of home. Be sure to read below about My Grandma's of New England,  O & H Danish Bakery, Paul's Bakery, and River Street Sweets.
    • Just because a company will ship APO/FPO doesn't mean it's a good idea. Use common sense to determine if a product can travel without spoiling.
    • Do NOT ship anything that requires refrigeration, such as cheesecakes, cream cheese frosting, or quiche. Even if packaged frozen with cooling packs, these items are unlikely to make the long trip to an APO/FPO address without spoiling.
    • Online ordering forms are sometime not military address friendly. Use the company phone number to ensure your address in entered properly.
    • Some coupon codes are listed here and I will update them when possible. However, I recommend that before making an online order, you do a Google search for promo codes for that company to see if any better offers are currently available.

    Many of these are companies that I or my fellow Soldiers’ Angels have used to the delight of our “adopted” service members. I hope you will let me know about your experiences with these care packages as you send them.

    Also, please let me know of any additional resources that you think should be included on this list. I will be updating coupon codes and adding additional resources when available.
