That Chocolate Shoppe in the Village in located at The Courtyard in historic Pickering…read more It is a cute little shop that has a lot of on site made chocolate related goodies all packaged nicely and ready to be gifted as gifts! The chocolate enrobed ginger and coffee beans does look interesting. You can also pre order Made to order cakes, cupcakes and other baked goods. Oh and some chocolate products that might be fun to play with or share with your special someone in private are also on sale too.... just imagine the possibilities! :)

Chocolate Margaret uses Merkin Chocolate Wafer candy over real chocolate. If you place an order…read morewith her she will change it without notice, you will pay for her time and then she will come and go. She will help herself to treats brought in to your private party. She will literally count out pretzel sticks to make sure no one gets an extra one, from the no name brand bag. She is intrusive to your personal life which will go beyond the business you do with her. I question hygiene because we made chocolate products at our party and she would not allow us to use it as she said she planned on giving it away ...even though we paid for it...and a dozen ppl touched it. Do not do a chocolate party with her.

I gave two stars because I paid for chocolate and I got chocolates. The store was clean, their…read moredisplay was appealing, the appearance of shop was very attractive. The staff was nice. Then, how about the taste of chocolates? They were not horrible, but not fantastic. They have varieties of chocolates, but everything tastes the same. They don't tastes like chocolates, but taste like more simple caramels. I thought they were selling gourmet chocolates, but they were like more grocery store type chocolates.

That kid in a candy store feeling, it came back today!! It started when I was walking by the store…read moreand saw chocolate roses being poured and set. A keen employee spotted my gawking and brought out some samples for us and the other people milling about. I tried a small piece of green apple topped with caramel and brittle. The apple was juicy and tart which was perfectly balanced with the sweetness of the coating. This brought me into the store to look at all the goodies. Rocky Mountain really has a lot of great gifting items. Everything is super cute and detailed and catered for different occasions - it's a boy/it's a girl baby showers, golf themed boxes just in time for the greens to start opening, giant birthday chocolate "cakes" (it's a large circle shaped chocolate with toppings), and even just because treats for your dog! There were a lot of seasonal Easter items in stock including giant eggs that looked to be stuffed with popcorn and eggs that have a chance of having a $1,000 gift certificate inside. There were also a lot of cute bunny chocolates including ones that featured bunny bums complete with white chocolate bunny tail. I was meeting up with some relatives for dinner and was inspired to get a gift when I remembered that we had a few diabetics in the family. Since we were at a specialty store I thought I'd try my luck to see if they had any options for my situation and sure enough they did! The manager walked me around the store and pointed out the different options to me. For the a la carte chocolates, they have no sugar added almond clusters and peanut butter cups. There were some gift boxes that also had no sugar added for $10 and $20. When we were deciding between the gift boxes another employee came over to suggest the bigger box since it had a better overall value. When is less really more anyways?! Bigger box it was! Finally if chocolate isn't really your thing...they are also part creamery so you can get ice cream instead!

My dear friend and I were shopping at RioCan Durham Centre a couple of Mondays ago. We had come out…read moreof the GAP Factory Store and saw this Purdy Chocolatier store diagonally across from it. I have only seen Purdys at shopping malls. It was my first time seeing a store in a plaza. This Purdys is next to Burgers on Fleek. Does anyone say on fleek anymore?! I remember one of my interns using that phrase back in 2017 or 2018. I would never use slang as a part of a business name, as it becomes dated as time goes on. I frankly hadn't heard of that phrase for years until I saw this business. I digress. I was first introduced to Purdys by two former interns. On their last day of their internship, they both got me chocolates from Purdys. One box had assorted chocolates and the other one had all hedgehog chocolates. Without any hesitation, we headed over to this store after we dropped off our recent purchases at our respective cars. The shopping damage continued at Purdys for me. We walked in. It was a pleasant store. I saw a display for Lunar New Year chocolates. Cool! My friend recently got vegan chocolate from Purdys for Christmas and loved it. She's more of a milk chocolate person than dark. I'm the opposite. I decided to try the vegan dark trail mix bar. I found out that this store has a small section of no-sugar-added chocolates on the right, in the corner, when you first walk in. Yay! I found hedgehog chocolates that didn't have any sugar added and snatched a box. I spoke to the woman at the counter. She was great to point out that the no-sugar-added bars were BOGO. Sweet! Okay, not literally. I noticed a huge chocolate Santa that was 50% off. I asked the woman whether it was hollow. You'd think that I'd get a yes or no response. Nope, I got neither. She said that some parts were thicker than other. So, I'm guessing it's hollow for the most part. I'd die eating that chocolate Santa. Maybe if I paced myself, I could freeze most of it and indulge whenever I wanted to. The woman at the store was nice. She placed everything in a purple bag. I paid with a debit card. I tapped and all was great. This store also has ice cream. I've never had Purdys ice cream, so I'll need to return. I love the chocolate that I bought. The quality is great. Yummy. The no-added-sugar chocolates were perfect. I'm a fan. I still need to have the vegan one. I got sidetracked by all the hedgehogs... haha! This store is awesome. I'll definitely return for more chocolate goodies and more. (8)
