I'm sure we can all remember staring wide-eyed at the TV screen as Willy Wonka led children through his grandiose chocolate factory with every kind of sweet imaginable. There's a place right here in Texas that will evoke that same awestruck feeling: Sweet Shop in Mount Pleasant (near Fort Worth). From truffles that look too pretty to eat to gourmet chocolate bars with a richness and complexity your taste buds can hardly comprehend, you'll be in complete heaven after one bite.
This store is the company's headquarters, so it's essentially a giant warehouse filled with the finest, most gourmet chocolate on the market.
A tour of the facility will show you just how much love and care go into hand-decorating each individual piece of candy, like these delectable truffles.
You'll also see the innovative technology required to produce sweets at the rate they do here. This is a truffle making machine! How neat is that?
The shop goes all-out for major holidays, decorating from floor to ceiling - and, of course, making themed chocolates.
These adorable snowmen are actually truffles! Too cute to eat, right? Well, almost...
Halloween is a favorite holiday at Sweet Shop, too. You'd be the most popular house on the block if you handed these out to trick-or-treaters!
All of their candy is interesting with no one piece resembling another. Take this sundae-inspired truffle, for example - peanut butter and chocolate fudge with a chocolate coating, white chocolate and fudge drizzles, nuts, and a cherry jelly bean to top it all off...
...or this cappuccino truffle, filled with mocha cream, covered in chocolate, and drizzled with milk and white chocolate.
Sweet Shop is located at 1316 Industrial Rd, Mt Pleasant, TX 75455 and is open from 8am-5pm on weekdays only.
