Very cool place! We had seen a documentary on TV about the candy making company and it was nice to see it in person. The chocolate tastes amazing.

We stopped by on a Saturday afternoon for a 12:30 p.m. tour. We were welcomed quickly by Barbara, who gave us complimentary sea salt caramels, and then had a wonderful 30 minute tour with Joy, a person's name who truly fits their personality. We learned about the various sweets and how they're made, and at the end we got to enjoy a custom-made candy bar. This could be a wonderful event for people of all ages when enjoying the Jacksonville area. Parking was easy within close walking distance.

The store itself was really fun to visit. The decorations were incredible. The tour…not so much. We all felt like they tried to make a tour of something there was no tour for. There was no candy in production…so we were told…this is the pan they would pour the chocolate into…??? I would recommend a visit to the store itself, but skip the “tour”.

It was great experience. I'm in Jacksonville with my daughter on a work contract at the hospital here.

Great place! The tour guide was very informative. She know the history of the place and was very personal. You get to have your own candy bar created as part of the tour.

It was a very nice tour where they talked about the history of the building and company. Probably not the best choice for kids as it’s not interactive at all. I think I misunderstood that we would be involved in the making of our own chocolate bars. But they made them for us. There are better options for kids - he told us about several classes they do which I think would be a lot more fun for them.

A fun store to visit, with a cool restaurant and lots of great treats. The tour, given by Pete, the owner, took us through all three floors of the shop, and gave us insights on the building of the business, the making of chocolate, and a bit of the history of the location. A definite must-visit when in Jacksonville.
