The World’s Largest Chocolate Waterfall Is Here In Alaska And It’s Beyond Amazing
Everyone loves chocolate, especially in the winter. When you think of handmade, delicious chocolate, you must think Alaska Wild Berry Products! This amazing and absolutely incredible treat store in Anchorage, Alaska boasts the largest chocolate waterfall in the world!
We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life as we all practice social and physical distancing. While we’re continuing to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, we don’t expect or encourage you to go check them out immediately. We believe that supporting local attractions is important now more than ever and we hope our articles inspire your future adventures!

Established in 1946, 13 years before Alaska even became a state, Alaska Wild Berry Products started creating amazing wild berry jams and jellies. They have since expanded to many different tasty sweets, including chocolate, fudge, and other candies as well!
The chocolate waterfall is stunning, with over 3000 pounds of chocolate flowing through the falls! The waterfall was created in 1994, when the store was built.
The copper kettles are authentic candy kettles! The kettles, and the entire falls, were made special by Homer artist Mike Sirl.
The chocolate itself is donated by Peter's Chocolate Division of Nestle Foods and Guittard Chocolate Company. And if you are absolutely enchanted by the smell, you must practice self discipline! The falls are for viewing, not tasting, unfortunately.
Their fudge is out of this world! With so many unique flavors, it will be hard to narrow it down to just one! With original flavors bearing names like "Northern Lights," it's hard to get more Alaskan than that!
Our favorites are a toss up between the homemade peanut butter cups, or the grizzly bear claws! And if you're not a fan of chocolate, no worries! They also hand craft other candy treats like jelly beans, coconut creams, or even marshmallow bunnies for Easter!
You can also buy great gifts for the whole family while you're satisfying your sweet tooth. They also carry ulu knives, Alaska salmon, meats and cheeses, and of course- jams and jellies!
