    Don't sleep on this place. The best chocolate ever! The customer service is always on point, everyone is helpful, and it smells divine! There are so many options, chocolate, caramel, taffy, sugar-free, and all shapes and sizes. They even have a chocolate tour! The French Mints are unbeatable, and you can't go wrong with the melt away. You can also get your chocolates wrapped in a box for free, and pick a bow color.

    I visited Cerreta's on a field trip as a kid and we decided to stop in for a tour 20+ years later. The tour and add on of making your own bar of chocolate was worth every penny. You learn about the candy making process, and get to see a lot of the old machines some of which are nearly 100 years old. Very much worth a visit, especially with kiddos or visitors from out of town. A neat, local experience!

    I had NO IDEA there was a candy factory in Glendale! My friend and I went in on a whim the other day, and this place is HUGE! They have every kind of candy you can think of, and more! Tours are also offered too! Lots of seasonal items, this place will be fun to get gifts at during the holiday season! The lady working was super friendly and let us try whatever candies we wanted. She also told us a bit about the history of the factory, and it's been in its current location since the 1980's!!! I cannot WAIT to come back soon and support this local business.

    I absolutely love visiting Cerreta's for their handcrafted chocolates. We've been here many times and always make a point to stop by whenever we're in the area. Their chocolates are delicious, and they offer a great selection of seasonal treats for the holidays. The factory also provides tours fun activities for kids, making it a great stop for families. My personal favorite is the French Mints, it's like an Andes mint but fresher and even better! The Arizona Western box of chocolates is my go-to gift for visitors or when I need to bring a little taste of Arizona to someone. And for a truly indulgent treat, the Arizona Rock (chocolate-covered honeycomb) is a must-try; light, crunchy, and covered in rich milk chocolate. Whether you're looking for amazing chocolates or a unique Arizona gift, Cerreta Chocolate is the place to go!

    Just a sample look!

    So here I was on a Wednesday morning, and my once a year visit to Cerreta's for some Fine Chocolate. Believe me, I am grateful to be able to visit once a year, as my sweet tooth can be dangerous. As I walked in the place was hopping with customers and people taking the daily tour of the chocolate candy making process. My wife and I come here to buy different chocolates and other candy for gifts. Plus some for us as well. Inside the place you could see all the workers each doing their specific part of the candy making process. I wasn't here to do the tour but if you take a glance behind the display you can see a lot. Plus it is kept very clean and my goodness the odor just pulls you in and makes you feel like a kid again and I have all these choices to make. Again, just grateful to visit once a year. Come here, even if you have to drive a long distance and visit Cerreta's. You will be happy you did. I know I do, even if it is once a year.

    I came up here to get some great & delicious chocolates from a local company. They have a great selection of flavors and their French mints are the best. While similar to Andes mints, they are way better tasting and very rich of flavor. They offer all sorts of candies as well. Yes, they are a little pricier, but so worth it. The ladies working the registers are very friendly and professional. If you are in the area and like/love chocolate, it's worth the visit.

    We were in Glendale and dropped by the Cerreta Chocolate factory after having afternoon tea. What a fun place! I was delighted to see the large selection of chocolates and candies for sale in their store as well as watching some goodies being made. You can see, smell and get a taste of the confectionery. Just like in the famous "I love Lucy" episode "Job switching", the Cerreta employees wore hair nets, gloves and worked meticulously. There is a photo of Lucy and Ethel from this particular episode posted by the candy machinery. :) We purchased a chocolate covered jalapeno pepper, a chocolate covered twinkie, a bag of toffee, an assortment of their sugar free chocolates and of course a box of their well known, French mint chocolates. These make great gifts for out of towners!

    I moved to Our Fair Valley 39 years ago. Since Day 1 I've seen Cerreta's candies in grocery store displays. Now, 42 years, almost to the day of my permanent Arizona residence I stepped into the store and onto the floor of this small family business. Machinery fascinates me. A wave of gentle mechanical sounds filled my ears. Very nice old equipment and belts of candy caught my eye. Cerreta family art is everywhere - murals with a purpose. I could not reject the offer to sample product. Please Help Yourself! Being an obsessive person, I got distracted when I found a single truffle mixed with the Arizona-shaped mini-bites. I sorted that out with management. I ogled the various dark and milk chocolate coins of various cocoa concentrations. I remembered seeing some Arizona candy bars, rushed away to grab 6 to add to my May birthday gifts. Take a tour, buy a tee, sample the goods. I assure you, there will be lots more cool and unusual treats here than you'll find in grocery store bins. An Arizona family business that is a lot about Our Fair State. I hope they've cut a deal with Kroger's and Raley's.

    I was out roaming the streets still learning new ways to get around when I found this treasure. The smell of the store/factory was worth the stop. The family-owned candy shop was founded over 50 years ago and is still going strong. I stopped in on a Saturday when the processing and tours are closed, so I'll have to come back another time to see this place in action. However, the bag of French Mints I purchased was a sweet consolation prize.

    French mint meltaways
    Sarah J.

    I'll take all the French Mint Meltaways please! Cerreta has been around for decades and it's easy to see and taste why. These candies are made in house and they are special. Each one is a delicacy on its own and I have yet to taste one that I did not like (including sugar free)...though their mint meltaways are the best and what they are most known for. They also have kettle corn, seasonal treats, and other sweet treats. Along with selling candy they also offer educational tours that have become somewhat of a right or passage for youngsters taking field trips (my husband and I both remember going 30 years ago)! When you step inside Cerreta you are taken into a world that delights the senses. It's a large factory that lets you see how it's all made and the smells, sights, and tastes are divine. The prices aren't cheap however; good candy comes at a cost, but I assure you, you can taste the difference. The chocolatiers know how to make the good stuff, and the staff are always knowledgeable and guide you to what will make your tastebuds dance. Treat yourself and stop on in to this iconic chocolate factory!

    Ceereta's is a West Valley institution. I have been told by multiple people that we have to go there. We decided to kick off winter break by going to see Wonka with friends, then visiting an actual chocolate factory. Being days before Christmas, Cerreta's was ready for the holiday rush. There are items they sell regularly, and special items for Christmas. Unlike many of the chocolate Santas sold in mass market retailers, the Santas here are solid chocolate. They have more than chocolates. There are taffy, flavored popcorn, covered pretzels, brittles, and even hot sauce. Chocolate covered jalapeños are one of their specialty items. I was surprised by how many sugar-free items are available. This isn't a single lone item. There is a variety of chews, chocolate barks, Santas, and bars. Be diabetic or following a keto diet, there are a variety of confections to satisfy the sugar free sweet tooth. The tour isn't what I expect when I think of/what I have experienced in other factory tours. This is more of a presentation. There is what looks like a waiting area that runs the length of the kitchen. The tour group stands in that area while an employee explains Cerreta's history and how the chocolates are made. A few samples are given throughout the presentation. Other factory tours I have been on really show the products being made. This was more of an explanation and imagine what those explanations would look like. The TV with a history of chocolate video was not running the day we visited. Each person on the tour did receive a coupon for $2.50 off any purchase. For an additional charge, add-ons to the tour include decorating a personal chocolate pizza or football.

    Would you recommend a tour for someone with a nut allergy?

    Yes. There aren't any exposed peanuts during the tour. They may have peanuts in the chocolate pizza, though

    She was giving samples of the French Mint to everyone (which is rare they do that), however my husband had to decline.
