My husband and I visited this factory store one time. When we entered the store, an employee greeted us and asked if we needed any assistance. Some of the flavors of chocolates were not labeled, so I recommend that the store add more labels. The employee did answer my question about a particular flavor.
This store had many display cases and shelves of chocolates in flavors such as chocolate truffle, cherry cordial, caramel, peanut butter, pecan, cashew, butter cream, pretzel, coconut, Oreo, etcetera. I also saw some candies such as gummies, licorice, and taffy.
My husband and I picked out five chocolates for a total cost of $33. The employee promptly rang up our purchase, thanked us, and wished us a good day.
At home, my husband and I ate our chocolates. Here are our ratings:
Chocolate-covered mini pretzels - 3 stars - I thought that these chocolate-covered pretzels tasted *very* buttery.
Peanut-butter cup - 4.5 stars - This chocolate was a large size and looked as if it could have been poured more neatly. I did enjoy the flavor of the peanut butter.
Bag of bloopers chocolates - 4 stars - This one-pound bag contained an assortment of imperfect chocolates. I felt happy that a cherry cordial was included, and it seemed to contain crystallized sugar. Some other flavors were nut clusters, peanut butter, coconut, pretzel, etcetera, and they tasted good.
Cordial strawberry - 5 stars - A cordial strawberry is covered in chocolate and contains much liquid. According to the business's website, a cordial strawberry is made from a cut piece of strawberry that is dipped in liquid fondant and then chocolate layers. I thought that this piece was a large size and that the cordial was a bit messy but very flavorful.
Milk-chocolate bar - 4 stars - My husband ate this 3.5-ounce milk-chocolate bar, and he said that it was good.
