We love to check out boutique confectionaries. Chocolates can be a tricky business, so finding one that checks all the boxes is an amazing experience. First time stopping in here. I read about Burke moving in to this Whitefish Bay location, so I wanted to give them a try. I really wanted to give them the highest rating, but unfortunately that wasn't the case.
Super cute shop. Has a nice old time feel to it. Walking in to the place, you find a large selection of many different confections. The "factory" is at their other location downtown Milwaukee. Got greeted by two friendly staff members. Very helpful at explaining the different items and offered to allow me to sample (I did have one piece of the peanut butter crunch). You can either get individual items from the case, or there are pre-packed items on the other walls.
I got a mix of different items. Ones that I have found can be a big tricky to make. Fairy Food, Marshmallow, and Caramel. And to be honest I was a bit disappointed. Summer can be a hard to time to make/keep sponge candy (fairy food), and some places don't even make it this time of year because the humidity can make it sticky. Marshmallow has a short shelf life and can get tough. This was exactly my experience with these two items.
The chocolate itself was very good. And the presentation was also very impressive wit the other items.
They did wrap up everything in attractive cellophane bags with ribbon, and placed in a gift bag with a custom ribbon. Perfect for gift giving.
So overall a good (but not great experience). I would stop back again, but keep away from some of the humidity...
Read moreThe chocolate treats here are to die for. The chocolate is freshly made and is always amazing! They always give you samples and if you ask they may give you more than one! They have a basket of $1 chocolates if you are on a tighter budget! Highly recommend coming here if you are passing by...
