Barkus Chocolates was originally founded in 1953 in Pittsburgh, and over the years, it expanded to…read moreseveral other locations. This location in Butler opened in 1994. Barkus Chocolates sells a variety of chocolates, such as cordial cherries, chocolate-covered pretzels, peanut butter melt-aways, chocolate-covered potato chips, s'mores, pecan turtles, caramel patties, caramel apples, truffles, peanut clusters, and many others. Through Barkus Chocolates's website, I ordered a potato chip stack ($4.25), a peanut butter cup ($7.25), a s'more ($9.50), and an 8-ounce box of assorted milk chocolates ($17.95). Shipping cost $7.87. The next day, Barkus Chocolates shipped my package via the USPS. One day later, the USPS delivered the package to my house. I felt happy with the speed of the shipping. I enjoyed the flavors of most of the chocolates. The box of assorted chocolates included flavors such as cordial cherry (5 stars!), raspberry, mint, cashews, peanuts, coconut, raisins, orange, etcetera.

Chocolates are good. I would agree with the other review, that they rival Sarris. But I placed an…read moreonline order and my package came unsealed. I've emailed the company multiple times and have even followed up. They've offered no solution- to me that's unsatisfactory and unacceptable. It's not safe to eat an open product. And they've done nothing to fix the situation. So chocolate- 5 stars. Service- 0.

I have fond memories of Andersons. Growing up, my parents used to get these gigantic Easter eggs…read more Now, my go-to are the chocolate covered strawberries. They are whole strawberries covered completely in chocolate, like the old Joseph Horne ones of my youth. No Shari's Berries or Anthony Thomas for me. I want Andersons. You are advised to keep them frozen. I live nearly 200 miles away, and it's summer. But I came prepared. I have one of those frozen grocery bags that you keep in the freezer and a big ice pack, and it all goes into my Trader Joe frozen food bag. This place is filled with chocolate. My only regret is I forgot to ask if they make a version of Annaclaires, a childhood favorite from Gimbels.

They have a huge selection of chocolate based (and some non-chocolate) based candies. They also have a ton of sugar free options which is great for those watching their sugar. We tried a variety of treats which were tasty- I particularly enjoyed the chocolate caramels. I was a little disappointed that the kind girls working behind the counter couldn't explain what some of the candies were, but they did offer to let me try one which made up for it some. We also tried a box of their chocolate covered strawberries, but were a bit disappointed as they were a little sour and not very good. However the other chocolates we got were amazing and worth returning!

Betsy Ann Chocolates opened in 1938 and hand-makes chocolates and some candies. Customers may…read morepurchase the chocolates and candies at this factory store, at retail locations (in Pennsylvania, Ohio, New York, and West Virginia), through the business's website, or through organizations' fundraisers. My husband and I visited this factory store one time. When we entered the store, an employee greeted us and asked if we needed any assistance. Some of the flavors of chocolates were not labeled, so I recommend that the store add more labels. The employee did answer my question about a particular flavor. This store had many display cases and shelves of chocolates in flavors such as chocolate truffle, cherry cordial, caramel, peanut butter, pecan, cashew, butter cream, pretzel, coconut, Oreo, etcetera. I also saw some candies such as gummies, licorice, and taffy. My husband and I picked out five chocolates for a total cost of $33. The employee promptly rang up our purchase, thanked us, and wished us a good day. At home, my husband and I ate our chocolates. Here are our ratings: Chocolate-covered mini pretzels - 3 stars - I thought that these chocolate-covered pretzels tasted *very* buttery. Peanut-butter cup - 4.5 stars - This chocolate was a large size and looked as if it could have been poured more neatly. I did enjoy the flavor of the peanut butter. Bag of bloopers chocolates - 4 stars - This one-pound bag contained an assortment of imperfect chocolates. I felt happy that a cherry cordial was included, and it seemed to contain crystallized sugar. Some other flavors were nut clusters, peanut butter, coconut, pretzel, etcetera, and they tasted good. Cordial strawberry - 5 stars - A cordial strawberry is covered in chocolate and contains much liquid. According to the business's website, a cordial strawberry is made from a cut piece of strawberry that is dipped in liquid fondant and then chocolate layers. I thought that this piece was a large size and that the cordial was a bit messy but very flavorful. Milk-chocolate bar - 4 stars - My husband ate this 3.5-ounce milk-chocolate bar, and he said that it was good.

You look at this huge "strawberry" the size of a golf ball and think this is going to be soooooo good. The problem arises once you bite in to find it is filled with sugary juices, white cream and HALF A SMALL STRAWBERRY! There was not even a full strawberry in this! The strawberry was not even the size of a quarter. I believe in supporting local businesses, I really do. But, in this case, I have to suggest you save your money! Betsy Ann....
