I love the Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory and it's always a special treat for me when I run into one when I'm out shopping. Whenever I see one, I have to go inside and at least see what they have and of course, get myself a "little" treat.
If you've never been to the Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory before, I have to say that you are MISSING OUT! They have a great selection of sweets and something for everyone from caramel/candied apples to homemade fudge. The Rocky Road fudge is one of my personal favorites. Their selection is usually pretty standard from location to location and I love that for most items they offer it in both dark chocolate and "light" chocolate. Today I tried a dark chocolate cashew cluster and I was not disappointed! I also tried a giant peanut butter cup (I can't remember the exact name they have for them), and I was somewhat disappointed in that. There was way too much chocolate and not enough peanut butter (I couldn't even taste the peanut butter!). My husband found something that I have never seen at other locations - fresh black licorice. He bought a package and it was gone within a few hours (he did share, but still...) He said it was some of the best licorice he has ever tasted.
The chocolate isn't cheap (you pay at least $1 for individual items), but it makes a nice "treat" and is well worth it in my opinion! At this location, they also served Blue Bell ice cream. This is another location that is not "stroller friendly" as you have to climb a big flight of stairs to get to the main display area. I have been to many different Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory locations and I have yet to be disappointed. This location was comparable to the others that I have been to!
