Back when I was a kid, there used to be a Hershey Chocolate Factory in Oakdale, California and the…read moreair smelled like chocolate - it was amazing! Then they shut it down and now the only place to experience Hershey is at this Hershey's Chocolate World in Hershey Pennsylvania - where it all began! The only bummer is that you can't visit the actual chocolate factory so you can't see the production and smell the amazing chocolate air like you used to be able to do in Oakdale. However, it was still a fun experience for adults and kids! My best tip is to BOOK IN ADVANCE! They offer tons of different activities (most you have to pay and reserve individually) and it will save you so much time if you do that ahead of time. Also, if you have a reservation, parking is free. They also have a theme park, but coming from Southern California (I'm sure you Florida residents agree) we have plenty of theme parks so I wasn't as interested in that. These are the activities in order of my favorite: 1) Create Your Own Candy Bar - this was our favorite activity where you can choose your own base (TIP: I chose a white chocolate base since all of the candy bars are covered in milk chocolate so I ended up with both kinds of chocolate) and then you can choose your own toppings, top it with sprinkles and even design your own candy bar wrapper that they print for you (and also send you a copy digitally). This was amazing! 2) The store itself (I enjoyed walking around looking at all the sweet and savory things to buy and they had so many unique gift sets and limited edition flavors 3) REESE'S Stuff Your Cup (create a GIANT customized one-pound REESE'S Peanut Butter Cup - yum!) 4) Historical Trolley (go on a tour on a trolly and see the original factory location and Hershey historical sites, from outside only though! Bummer!) 5) HERSHEY'S Unwrapped (a comedic show where you get to taste samples of chocolates - it was ok but better for kids) 6) HERSHEY'S Chocolate Tour Ride (a Disneyland type ride where you just ride around in a little car like in Spaceship Earth and see the different candy production. Our car's video kept going out so it was a bit glitchy and again, I was disappointed they didn't show more actual factory and production footage) **They also have a HERSHEY'S Great Candy Expedition - but it didn't look interesting to me it looked cheesy and more for little kids so I skipped it Overall, it was amazing and delicious to visit the Hershey Chocolate Factory - make sure if you visit to build your own candy bar!!

The variety of coffees and syrups that this store carries is impressive! I was surprised by all of their sugar free syrup options. They also offered decaf espresso.

They have tons of seasonal offerings for their coffee but are happy to make something unique just for you as well. Definitely stop by for delicious chocolates and cozy coffee.

I have to say anything you take home here is going to be amazing. Be it from the chocolate, the caramel, toffee, whatever it is you buy you are going to love it. The lady at the counter was very knolwedgable in her chocolate. She answered any and all questions we asked her. My family really enjoyed stopping in and taking some of the delicious chocolate to go. On a side note, due to covid we were unable to tour the chocolate making process. But when we are back next time we hope to tour. Overall it's a great little shop with a lot of good tasty treats inside.

I will stop here every time I am in the area and probably order more via mail. I am uploading a bunch of pictures of what we got.

The shop also has a variety of popcorn for purchase along with a Rita's Italian Ice shop in the back.

First, I thought it was a great idea to have a food truck on a weekend morning, because you can tap into a different group of patrons than on a Friday night. Service was spot on with each type of croissant and food item was explained (with pride) to me while trying to choose. On this visit we sampled the ham and cheese croissant, the apple croissant, and the savory bread pudding. Everything was delicious! The croissants were some of the best ones my wife and I have eaten. So much so we contemplated walking back to the truck for seconds. If you see their food truck stop and you will not be disappointed! We are looking forward to visiting the shop and trying some of their specialty chocolates!

Frederic was incredibly warm, welcoming, and friendly throughout our visit, making the entire process so enjoyable. We sampled several of the chocolates, and every single one was absolutely delicious. We ended up selecting Red, a red berry-filled chocolate, and Hedonism, a hazelnut and sea salt chocolate. The chocolates were a huge hit at our wedding! So many guests commented on how delicious and elegant they were. We made sure to let them know where they could buy more. We couldn't have been happier with our choice. The chocolates are incredible and the customer service is outstanding. My husband and I cannot recommend Frederic's chocolates highly enough!
