Welcome to the world’s slowest snail mail club.
Created by an Aunt who just wanted to secure her spot as the favourite. FlourTales is a way to get little ones to experience the joy of mail, follow a group of adventurers, and get their hands sticky in the kitchen.
What you get in each envelope:
Each month (or around about), you’ll receive a letter from our main character, Imaan, detailing an adventure she and her friends have stirred up, a recipe card with an illustration on it, some stickers, and an extra goodie.

You might be wondering: what makes it slow? Well, FlourTales is run from South Africa, a country whose postal system is in business rescue.
Meaning our snails are slower than they used to be. We do have others for you to pick from – they just come at a price.

This is South Africa's slowest snail and will be delivered by the South African Postal System.
Our postal system is a bit slow, and while he is our favourite, Lenny prides himself in testing your patience. If you haven’t received mail in a while, we’d suggest you try one month first and then purchase a 6 month pack.
NB: You have to have a mailbox outside your home or the letter won't be delivered.
Letters will arrive in a minimum of 2-8 weeks locally.
