I have a 5 star review because of two things:

It's well worth a stop in to taste the daily sample and then take home a big box of goodies to enjoy for one and all. Go taste great...
Read moreHad such a fun time bringing my nephew here for a tour and getting a really great run down of the process of chocolate making and the history of the company. The tour guide was incredibly enthusiastic and knowledgeable which made the tour worth every minute. They have a ton of great options to choose from including fudge, truffles, jelly beans and more, but I would sell my mother for a bag of the caramel wrapped marshmallows which are SO GOOD. I will continue to come back from these until they give me a...
