I really hope my videos uploaded. I was in NJ for a week , my tia brought us to this little shop only to realize that it has huge variety of chocolates choices. As you first walk in, the sweet aroma of chocolate starts to take over your mind. Your eyes start to wander around and start acting like a children wanting everything you see, the best thing of being an adult is that you don't need to ask your parents for chocolate go ahead and just buy whatever you want. Everything in display has pricing the goodies in the glass display they charge by pound, if your just a cheap chocolate lover this place ain't for you stick to your regular store, the price is a bit more here. Definitely worth it . read more

Love this place and it has been around for a while now but I never thought to come in. What was I thinking !!!!?? This small candy shop smells like chocolate heaven from minute you walk in! There's an overwhelming amount of delicious chocolate, so you pick your poison. I was craving chocolate covered strawberries so I went for that. I loved how rich and creamy the chocolate tasted. Once you have your first bite trust me you'll become so addicted! I got 5 for about $20 ...not too bad compared to other competitors. I will definitely start coming here and placing my chocolate covered strawberry orders! Will I recommend this place ? If you're a chocolate lover like myself then yess , 100 percent!! Tip : the parking sucks ! So if you're going you might want to have an idea of what you'd like to get to be in and out. #stephaniemoscoso read more

Krause's Homemade Candy - Best chocolate strawberry's !! - Candy Stores Near Me - Fairview, New Jersey

I LOVE this place, it is a bit on the pricey side, but BOY IS IT WORTH IT. I've tried a lot of what they offer, but my favorite has to be the chocolate covered strawberries - they offer them in two sizes small strawberries or medium strawberries. A few of my other favorites are the chocolate covered marzipan and cherry cordials. If you plan on visiting Krause's during the holidays be prepared to wait outside. read more

Luckily for me this candy shop is located near my home. Everything they have here is simply DELICIOUS. The chocolate covered fruits are the BEST, especially the strawberries. I stopped here to buy my children their Chocolate Easter Bunnies. Just try to get here early around holiday time, as it becomes VERY crowded, and there is often a very large line. A police officer is even sometimes outside directing traffic during the busy holiday seasons. read more

Finally a place that actually enrobes the whole strawberry with chocolate and good chocolate at that. My hubby gets them for me a few times a year but this year he went the day before Valentine's Day and bought me home a box. Best so far, they were big, sweet, juicy and delicious. We actually restrained ourselves and made them last between the two of us for three days (not easy!) but they were the best ever. read more

Krause's Homemade Candy - Wrapping of chocolate covered strawberries - Candy Stores Near Me - Fairview, New Jersey

The same horror I had at easter! The customer service was terrible. The girl helping me was the same as this past Easter and how she remains employed is beyond me. She must be related to the owner because she was very rude both times. Ive been going here since the 70's and this time will be the last. There are other places that deserve your money. This one no longer deserves mine. read more

Local institution. They are known for their chocolate covered strawberries. Full dipped in milk chocolate. They also gift wrap.

My wife and I recently stopped in Krause to buy chocolate rabbits for our children. The chocolate that is made here is simply delicious. The shop is very small but can become crowded. We got 2 rabbits and some chocolate covered Oreos. They are known for their chocolate covered strawberries, my wife loves them. I'll definitely be stopping in again soon. read more

Well.. first time here. Gotta say nothing special. Minus one for bad customer service. Come on.. I'm a first time customer who have heard about this place for many years.. finally had a reason (gift for a chocolate lover) to visit, but dissapointed with lack of knowledge and service. Example: what should I get? answer back from employee? "it's up to you.. they are all labeled".. me like, "what's is wrong with these people, help me out here". Another minus one for high price.. come on!.. $50-60 for some chocolate?? Finally extra minus one for the taste.. what is everyone excited about? it tastes like Hersheys! and 800% more expensive. read more

BEST. CHOCOLATE. EVER. Nothing compares to Krause's. I grew up on Krause's chocolate, and to this day, I can't find one chocolate that's better. And I'm 53! I have tried others, and nobody comes close. My mother has been a faithful customer for MANY years, and has gotten her friends and coworkers addicted as well. I still get a steady supply of chocolate to this day; thanks mom ;) Their milk chocolate is a silky, creamy, smooth piece of heaven. And as much as I love dark and white chocolate, it's their milk chocolate that blows me away. Every time. And the chocolate covered strawberries are just incredible; sweet and juicy, dipped in their incredible chocolate, I'm drooling as I type this. I'm not too crazy about the filled chocolates, although their fruity cremes are pretty good (raspberry, lemon, orange). If I'm not mistaken, there may have been a marshmallow filled chocolate that was good as well. And if you love peeps, you have GOT to try the chocolate dipped Peeps, o m g ! AND NEVER, EVER confuse this Krause's with the one in Paramus, which only share similar names, not the awesome chocolate. Years ago, I assumed, and stopped in for a few quick treats and was totally blown away by how horrible their chocolate was. A quick Google told me they weren't related. My bad! Sure, the parking sucks when their busy and especially during holiday times, but it's well worth parking elsewhere and walking if need be. And from what I've read here about their customer service and counter issues, well, I hope they read these reviews and work on it, because this is one local business that needs to stay around, forever. read more

Krause's homemade chocolate and chocolate covered strawberry's are the best around. The moment you enter you smell the fresh chocolate, it makes you want to buy everything. One of my favorite places to be lol. The staff are always welcoming and sweet. Prices are good. Best place to go for any special occasion to get their chocolate covered strawberries, it's the best and they put the right amount of chocolate that they put around the strawberry. They have all different kinds of chocolates. I would definitely recommend this place for anyone if in need for chocolate covered strawberries or just chocolate in general. read more

I have been going to krauses for a very long time (at least 25 years or more). I used to live in North Bergen but now I live in Florida and still shop there. its a great place to go to read more

Excellent chocolate but WORST customer service. I was looking for help and the girls behind the counter would ignore me just continue talking like nothing. My husband attempted to get their attention and nothing. I understand that you have good chocolate but that's no reason to offer poor customer service. read more

Famous chocolate covered strawberry is really fresh and juicy. If you haven't tried it, just try once. The price is about six dollars per pound. I recommend you to order by pieces you want then the shop staff will bring fresh one from the fridge. I found some pictures at the below site. http://gardenstatewalker.blogspot.com/2007/08/kurauses.html Krause's also has a shop in Paterson by route 20 north where will be convenient for I-80 commuters. read more

Krause's chocolate covered strawberries were super delicious. I highly recommend them for taste and price.

This is still my favorite candy store. As soon as I went to New Jersey for a visit this is the first stop I made. Everything is delicious and homemade. My favorite is the chocolate coveted strawberries and chocolate covered rasberry rolls. They have so much to offer and the prices are great. read more

I've been a customer for years! The most amazing chocolate covered strawberries! They are a must-have for any special occasion. For the area, this place is a local gem! read more

Great chocolate but I witnessed the misfortune of coming in today and seeing a 4-7 year old child behind the counter touching and tampering with the chocolates with bare hands. Doing that in front of customers is a extremely bad look and kind of turned me off. The 3 staff members behind the counter next to him didn't say anything or even bat an eye. read more

We tried a variety of items a few monthd ago; most of them were stale and fell short of expectations

Hands down the BEST chocolate covered strawberries ever!! They are a little pricey but totally worth it! The milk chocolate is rich without being overly sweet! It's chocolate heaven in here! You can find anything you want covered in chocolate! read more

I lived in Palisades Parkm NJ and I miss them. I am in Orlando, Fl now and I sure miss those chocolate covered strawberry.

A family favorite for many years with a great and extensive selection of homemade chocolate and sweet treats available. You enter to such a pleasant aroma in the air and you begin noticing chocolate covered novelties as well as for your standard chocolate essential products. Pretzels, oreo cookies, little cars, chocolate lolipops, filled center chocolates, peanut butter cups, bark, their homemade saltwater taffy, and other non-chocolate products. There are gift platters for sale with small tasty chocolates on them wrapped up to go that look very nice. Their pricing is good for the overall value and quality received. I have shopped for gifts here as well as for around the Christmas season and their chocolate really sets the mood in my family. Service is always kind hearted and very friendly whenever I visit. This is where you go to find specialty chocolate and other little treats of interest. I just stopped by here yesterday afternoon for some milk chocolate pretzels, vanilla bark, and taffy. I paid $17.02 for everything and when I got home I sampled the goods, and boy were they so worth picking up! Parking is out front in provided spaces and it does tend to get crowded here on weekends and during the holiday season sometimes, although there is a traffic officer on duty then. But most of the time you can usually find a space. So what are you waiting for? Go to Krause's today! read more
