While you can’t dip a cup in and taste, it does make a great photo op. They also offer tours of their 45,000 sq. ft. full production facility on the first Tuesday of every month–call to reserve your spot. In the gift shop you can pick up salt water taffy, truffles, chocolate covered gummy bears, and more!

This bean-to-bar chocolate cafe offers a unique experience along with some delicious treats like truffles, cacao nibs, and a myriad of chocolate bars.
