So, if you want to satisfy your sweet tooth and try the very best desserts this place has to offer, head on over there now. We highly recommend you sample some of these, which we consider the best things to get at the store!
1. Chocolate Covered Strawberries
These are a classic favorite and are made with fresh, plump strawberries dipped in rich chocolate. Enjoy the delightful contrast between fresh, tangy strawberries and rich, decadent chocolate. They are available in white, milk, and dark chocolate varieties, each with its own flavor profile.
2. Caramel Apples
You know what they say, “An apple a day keeps the doctor away!” However, caramel apples may do the opposite for your dentist, but you only live once, after all. These are a must-try for anyone visiting Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory. They are made with fresh Granny Smith apples coated in gooey caramel and then dipped in chocolate.
3. Truffles
These bite-sized treats are made with rich chocolate ganache and come in a variety of flavors, such as raspberry, hazelnut, and orange. These are perfect little treats if you’re trying to control how much sweets you eat in a day—for example, you can only have one or two a day!
4. Fudge
Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory is famous for its fudge, which comes in a wide variety of flavors including classic chocolate, peanut butter, and rocky road. These are gooey confections that melt in your mouth and will have you in a sugar rush in no time. Like the truffles, these can be sliced into several pieces and can be eaten in increments or shared with friends.
5. Chocolate-Covered Pretzels
These are unique and delicious treats that are made with salty pretzels dipped in creamy chocolate. Enjoy the contrast between salty, crunchy pretzels and luscious chocolate. Who says you only had to choose between salty and sweet?
6. Chocolate-Covered Oreos
These are great options for those who love Oreos but want to try something new. Oreo cookies are already great on their own, but with chocolate enrobed all over, they are practically irresistible! They are the perfect gift for your loved ones, especially small children, or make a perfect treat for a romantic date or a picnic.
7. Toffee
Almost like a mix between chocolate-covered pretzels and fudge, toffee is a classic sweet treat that is perfect for those who love the combination of sweet and salty flavors. It is made by heating sugar, butter, and often cream together until it reaches a hard, brittle consistency. It’s often made with nuts such as almonds or pecans and can be covered in chocolate for added sweetness and texture. A must-try for anyone visiting Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory.
8. Chocolate-Covered Popcorn
This sweet treat is absolutely perfect for movie night! Can’t decide between having fresh popcorn and sweet candy? Then the chocolate-covered popcorn is there for you.
This dessert is made by coating popcorn with tons of chocolate and topping it with things like sprinkles, nuts, and other yummy doodads. They blend saltiness and sweetness perfectly, and pretty soon you’ll find yourself finishing the whole bag before the movie even starts.
9. Chocolate-Covered Bacon
When you think of bacon, you normally think of it on a breakfast platter beside eggs and hash browns. You don’t normally think of them coated in chocolate, but trust us—this is an absolute must-have you should get as soon as possible! Here, crunchy bacon is coated with a generous layer of chocolate. Like the other sweet and salty treats on this list, this is simply delicious.
