There is something magical about being in a candy store. Chocolates, truffles and chocolate bars…read moreeverywhere. I have been to a lot of candy stores in our valley but just a shop that focuses on chocolate, a total different vibe! I made my way to the Chocolat Bar today. The perfect shop to help with my sweet tooth. I remember getting some chocolates as a gift but it was nice to be able to make my way into the store. The venue is so stunning. Beautiful displays of hot cocoa containers, chocolate bars and gift boxes of chocolates. Bright display cases of beautifully made chocolates and truffles. Everything looked divine! As much as I wanted to buy a whole pound of chocolates, I knew I couldn't polish off a whole pound by myself. My husband loves chocolate but isn't into anything fancy. I know he wasn't going to help me with a the chocolates I would have picked out. So, I opted to grab a small box of assorted chocolates. The little box I grabbed was simple and delicate. I love the little blue bow on the box. It was just the right amount of goodies for me. And since it's a variety, I get to try a little of everything. I appreciate that they have a list of what was going to be in the box. You get a nice mix of dark and milk chocolate. I'm not going to lie, I opened up that box and had 2 pieces of the dark chocolates drops. No guilt polishing off 2 pieces of chocolate right away. Later I had a milk chocolate drop with cashews I believe and I'm in love. I recall the chocolates I had in the past were fabulous but the chocolates I got today were delicious! And I plan on not sharing the rest of the box with anyone in my house. I was hesitant at the store purchasing a whole pound of chocolate but after eating 3 pieces of it today, I think I'm going to have to grab a pound the next time I come in. I know I'll have to pace myself with that many sweets but it'll be so worth every penny! Happy I stopped in for a treat today. The staff was super friendly and helpful. I got to support a local business. After reading a couple reviews, the coffee and Gelato are a must here too, a must have on my next visit. The store is so pretty and bright. The chocolates here are fantastic. I can't wait to come back soon for some Valentines day treats.

You are in for a treat here. The chocolate alone makes it worth the stop, but the moment you step…read moreinside it feels like a cozy French café. Do not skip the coffee because they do it right, and it pairs perfectly with whatever sweets you pick. Service is always friendly and personal, which adds to the charm. Whether you love milk chocolate, dark chocolate, or truffles, the selection is deep and everything is top quality. My personal favorites are the barks, especially the mixed nut, cocoa, and cherry. I have yet to find a bad one. The best way to enjoy it is to grab a selection, order a coffee, and sink into one of their comfortable chairs for a little break. Just be warned, you will walk out with a bag of chocolate that somehow ends up around forty dollars. Worth every penny.

The gal who helped me out was really friendly and helpful.... I have 2 things I recall liking from these shops one is molasses chips... My honest opinion See's is better maybe because it is crunchier and more dense...these seemed to be lighter but they were still good.... Next is Butter Almond Toffee....Yes this definitely was on par and great crunch and taste.....

The adverb is well…read moreused as the pride in creating a great product results in the wonderful taste for customers to enjoy. You won't find Emilee's Candees in a dedicated storefront but the treats can be found at some local merchants. Like Stella's Ice Cream (another Nampa originated business) at their new Eagle location which is where my husband and I found a selection of Emilee's. We have only begun our goal of trying all of Emilee's treats. Based on early going we highly recommend the Dark Chocolate Almond Toffee. A 4 oz bag is just the right size to be shared by two and at only $5.00 it is a great buy for top quality. Beer caramels covered in chocolate are next on our list if they aren't sold out before we can get to them. No web site for Emilee's but Emilee's Candees can be found on Facebook and in addition to the phone number listed on the Yelp page you can reach them at emileescandees@gmail.com.

Not a big selection, but nicely displayed and FREE SAMPLES! Just a little factory in an older but well kept building with an older lady sitting behind a tiny counter (stacks of paperwork behind her), ready to take your order or answer questions! You get the picture. They have several antique items and machinery. Behind a windowed door you can peek into the factor that concocts these delicious things!

I've recently tried more of their candies - the Huckleberry Gems, the Vandal Bar, and the Bronco Bites. I adore how they keep the Idaho pride with their themed candies. I recently went there with my family, and we got a little bit of everything, took it home, and had a cutting to try pieces of all of their chocolates. They even had a bag of toffee shaped like little potatoes. They are very thoughtful about the products they make, and it's all high-quality very delicious! I hear they are doing tours soon (can't wait!), but in the meantime, I frequent the shop to get gifts for clients and friends. Who doesn't love some local candy? My family loves this place.
