This particular chocolate shoppe looked promising. They had a reasonably large selection, some looked quite unique and well done. When we stepped in, they offered us a small sample. It was a tasty bit of maple fudge. We ended up getting a couple of large Toffee Peanut Butter Cups. We ate them later, back on the bus, and honestly, they were a bit disappointing. The chocolate was way to thick for my tastes. But the filling itself was good. My suggestion? Spend more time knocking the chocolate out of the molds before letting them set. The staff person who assisted us was super friendly and helpful.

It's my favorite thing. I look forward to it every time I see a chocolate shop. I was so excited. It's more like crunchy, caramelized fudge. Which is fine if you think that's what you're getting. But I wanted rich and creamy. Traditional fudge which is what they market. We ended up throwing it away we were so sad.

The place was packed, so we didn't feel like waiting it out for the individual/ by the pound stuff, so that was a little disappointing. They also had ice cream service. Even though it was packed, the grab and go allowed us to pretty quickly get out of there, so that was a relief, at least.

Their chocolates are overpriced, but don't skip out on the icecream! It's surprisingly good.read more

I've tried popcorn from many different shops, and not all of them nail it... but I'm happy to report this one is a winner! The butter popcorn was fresh, perfectly coated, and full of flavor. I went in with a group and we all picked different varieties to share. The Chicago Mix was a big hit with the kids since they got to enjoy multiple flavors in one bag. The maple syrup pecan was also super unique and delicious -- such a great sweet option! On top of that, the staff were friendly and welcoming. They let us sample flavors so we could choose our favorites, which made the experience even better. Highly recommend if you're a popcorn lover like me!

Beavertails came up and we saw they had shops within Banff, so we decided to try them out after our lunch. They had a flavor called "mEHple" and since maple syrup is also a Canada staple, we figured this would be a good pick. What we didn't notice was the chocolate drizzle that was on top of the maple syrup in the menu photo. The chocolate overwhelmed the entire dessert, and was a bit too much for our group. The pastry was good, crispy and flaky, but we really couldn't get through the entire thing without getting a huge bite of chocolate syrup. I think if they had put less chocolate, or even removed the chocolate altogether and just left the maple syrup, that would've been way better!

I asked for a sea salt caramel which they didn't have but they did have sea salt peanut butter cups. While sea salt caramels are my go to, I opted to try the peanut butter version. I'm not sure what it is about chocolate and sea salt but replacing caramel with peanut butter was not a concern. It was so good. I got it on a napkin so I could eat as we walked back to our hotel. I suspect I'll be back there trying another bit of chocolate before we leave here.

In fact just walking into the store itself you have to wait till the people either goes in or out before you yourself enter in or out. Also while walking down the rows I think I knocked over a couple of packages and I saw a couple of abandoned lollipops strewn on the floor. For candies be sure to expect Old Tyme Favourites, Liquorice, Chocolate Bars, Chocolates Liqueur, Chocolate & Candies Liqueur, Sugar Free Chocolate & Candies, and Maple Syrup Products. But my favourite areas was the Pez wall, would you like Pez candy being served to you by the throat of Johnny Depp as a pirate, Orlando Bloom, or perhaps from Hello Kitty or Donald Duck. The sky's the limit on this Pez board. There seems to be back areas where they make candy or the gift wrap the products you buy. I am not quite sure as I got kind of claustrophobic so I had to leave. But this candy shop has every option of candy in my opinion.
