I settled on a small dish of gelato. It's nice that you can choose two flavors for your small dish. So at first I said coconuts gelato, and the gentleman working there said it goes well with the mango sherbert. I'm glad I took his advice as this pair of gelato was fabulous together! I was also attempted by the vast array of flavors of individually wrapped taffy so I selected some to be weighed. You just put whatever candy you want in a small red basket, take it to the counter and they'll weigh it up. So fun! The store was very clean, orderly, inviting and tempting. The gentleman behind the counter was very personable. I'll definitely revisit the store whenever I'm in Mount Horeb.

The lady that was working here was very friendly. They had a small selection of ice cream as well. I loved how the candy was all separated from different regions and even the vegan ice cream had its own little booth. I thought the selection was pretty fair for what it was prices might be a little high but it was a great casual store worth checking out.

On our way home, she decided to grab a bag and went with a large with butter. While it was being filled, I noticed it was double the price of a medium, which we unfortunately didn't realize before ordering. The large came out to $17, which felt steep considering their massive party bag is only $20. While the party bag isn't warm and fresh, it definitely offers more bang for your buck. That said, the popcorn itself was delicious--no complaints on taste or quality. Next time, I'd definitely go for a small or medium size. It's great popcorn, just be mindful of the pricing tiers!

Upon walking in you immediately know you're going to love the place. It's so cute and cozy. There is indoor and outdoor seating, cute decor, and chocolate galore. 2. I ordered the drinkable hot chocolate. It was good, although a little thick. I would have wanted a bit of almond milk to thin it a bit but I loved how rich it was. My daughter also got the kids chocolate frappe (I think that's what it was called) she loved it! 3. We received one free truffle each since it our first time there. We ordered the mint, vanilla bean, and turtle truffles. I also ordered the sea salt caramel truffle and my daughter got a gaming boy stick chocolate. So cool. 4. We also tried their cookies so tasty! 5. The lady working was sooooo sweet. Omg, she truly was. I'm so sorry I didn't get her name but she made us feel welcome (almost everyone in Wisconsin made us feel that way) and she was no different. What a pleasant experience as we headed back home. Highly recommend that you drop in when you are in the Madison area!

This is the best latte I've had this year--perfect if you like coconut cream cold brews but prefer something a little sweeter than a cold brew, like me. It's got coconut cold foam on top and was also topped with toasted coconut and what seemed like pie crumbs? So delicious It wasn't very busy in there and I got my drink super fast, the barista even walked it out to the table I was waiting at. Highlyyyy recommend this place for coffee!

I am a big fan of dark chocolate, and this store is all dark chocolate, so it was perfect for me!…read moreIt's a small shop but they have a good variety of options including prepackaged items and fresh truffles, some of which are seasonal and some are year round. They also have a window where you can see the chocolate factory! They offered free samples of a jelly filled chocolate, which was tasty! The quality of the chocolate is very high and worth the price, in my opinion. I asked the employee for her recommendations and she was very helpful with that, as well as with explaining what some of the flavors were. There is also a list on the wall that explains their flavors in detail, and that list comes with each box as well. I opted for the machu picchu which is a year round flavor and the blood orange caramel, which is seasonal. These chocolates are just so tasty and I really recommend this place for a quick chocolate fix, and they'd also make great gifts!

Oh rats! I was hoping this place'd be better…read more.. Driven past this on roadtrips many a time; decided to actually stop in and check it out on the most recent trip. I'd been drawn in by the silly rodent statue on top of the building, because I like touristy shops. Upon entry I immediately realized the place was kind of dingy and gross. We got there with about half an hour 'til closing and this fact certainly showed in the affect of all the employees. I was curious about sampling some of the cheeses, but all of the employees were apparently too busy getting ready to close to help us, so we didn't get to try any of the many varieties. It was a bit odd to me to have potential customers there in the store during business hours, and the employees are steadfastly ignoring our presence to turn off the lights and such. We took the hint, quickly used the restroom, made a small courtesy purchase, then left. Speaking of the restroom, the floors were really sticky. Eww. Noticed they had lots of signage up that they were hiring. Yeah, they should probably hire someone who gives AF, if I'm being really honest, cuz it seems to me this place probably was great at one point but has fallen into disrepair. I got a couple pieces of taffy and hubby got a bag of nuts. We could tell from the taste/texture that these items had been sitting for awhile. I'm not a proponent of wasting food, but if your store can't turn products around before they're expired, I recommend perhaps just not selling those things and stick to cheese... Anyway, reckon we'll try out another of the many cheese shops in Wisconsin next time we drive through. There's certainly plenty to choose from!

Not to mention it was quite popular! I loved the selection of hot chocolate options and the translation for each. However I wasn't very impressed by the French one I ordered (dark chocolate plus vanilla). It was good but not as decadent as I was anticipating and even with 30 min to close I asked to dine in but they gave me everything in Togo containers. I also got a Swede sandwich- which was ham, Swiss and Dijon mustard. Nothing to write home about. It was very very average. However I did get an almond cookie with chocolate ganache which was fantastic. Sitting at a table in this shop and looking at all the treats was great. I have a feeling if I come back at an earlier time this place could really blow me away, but as of right now. It's mid. I'm not impressed and what was left at the end of the day was just average. Also the three items cost me about $20 so I would say this place Is on the pricer end
