Next up are gooey turtles and their signature Chicago Mix® popcorn at a local favorite since 1932 that may have ties to the St Paul mob. Their chocolate and caramel family recipe can be found in a large selection of chocolates - from chocolate-covered cherries to sponge chocolate.
Straight from the rooftops of St Paul, this local beekeeping chocolatier features distinctive honey bon-bons. Their exquisite honey is encased in award-winning 100% chocolate and then hand burnished with 23K edible gold leaf. Each bon-bon is a brilliant union of elegance and raw nature.
We'll end the tour at the "best truffles in the country, possibly the world!" according to Oprah on the Oprah Winfrey Show. Here we'll meet local chocolatiers to learn about their amazing truffles. Once you sample them, you'll know why Oprah raves about them!
