    I'm 72 and fondly remember this place from childhood through this day. It is largly unchanged over…read morethe years, and retains all of its charm from long ago. Entering the shop you are welcomed with a waif of irresistible smells of high quality chocolate that is being freshly made in the kitchen area that you can observe being molded and boxed. They always have a friendly and patient staff who will gladly follow you add you point and make choices from the seemingly endless variety of creative confections. It's really an experience you should treat yourself, and your family to. They can also ship worldwide as well! There is plenty of free parking and it's handicapped accessible. If you found this review helpful, please tap the thumbs up to let me know. Thanks!

    Their chocolates are made right here on site…read more Every morning, the solid chocolate is melted 100 pounds at a time in an antique copper kettle, tempered, and prepped to become a dizzying assortment of chocolates. Think  handmade creams, truffles, mints, cordials, butter-crunch, caramels, nut clusters, turtles, chocolate covered orange peel, ginger, apricots and pretzels. Want more? How about fudge, white chocolate, barks, clusters, pops, and sugar free chocolates. We paid $38.22 for a bagful of goodies - 2 boxes of hand picked chocolates (sugar free and high test), a piece of bark, a chocolate bar, and two turkey shaped chocolate pops for the grand kiddos. A small gift bag of nonpareils was  tossed in gratis. The store is quite large, so walking around and checking out the goods is quite a fun experience. The only disappointment we had was that their chocolate apple season just ended the week before.

    Flayvors of Cook Farm is a farm-based ice cream shop that combines homemade ice cream with a…read morerelaxed countryside setting. We walked up to a spot where the experience feels different from a typical ice cream stop because you are surrounded by farmland, open views, and even the cows that contribute to the farm's products. The environment is just as much a part of the visit as the dessert itself, with picnic tables scattered across the grass and a view of the fields stretching out beyond the parking area. The biggest highlight for us was the ice cream itself. The texture is creamy and rich without feeling overly heavy, and there is a good balance between classic flavors and more unique seasonal options. We tried a few of the creative flavors and found them to be what makes the shop stand out, with choices that you would not normally find at a standard ice cream shop. The more unusual options were interesting to sample, while the traditional flavors were still strong enough to keep coming back for. The portions were generous, and the quality of the ice cream felt consistent across the different scoops we ordered. The farm setting adds another layer to the experience. Sitting outside and enjoying ice cream while looking out over the fields makes it feel more like a destination rather than just grabbing dessert. We noticed families settling in at the picnic tables, kids running around the grass, and a general sense of calm that you do not get at a typical scoop shop. It is also a nice spot for families since there is more to see than just the ice cream counter, with the farm animals and open space giving the visit a fuller feel. The main thing to consider is that it can get busy, especially during warmer weather and peak dessert hours. The lines move at a reasonable pace, but the popularity means it may take longer during the busiest times. Parking and seating can also become more limited when the farm is crowded, so arriving earlier or visiting on a weekday can make the experience smoother. Flayvors of Cook Farm is one of those places where the location, atmosphere, and food all work together. The ice cream is the main reason to visit, but the farm setting makes the experience feel more memorable than a regular dessert stop. It is the kind of place that fits naturally into a warm afternoon outing, offering a treat that feels rooted in its surroundings.

    Lovely! Enjoyed seeing the cows, sitting the grass, and eating amazing ice cream offerings. I tried…read morethe frozen yogurt and it was also great.
