Description
Sweet Shop USA was established in 1972, in Fort Worth, Texas. Today, the company is located in Mount Pleasant, Texas. We are a family owned producer of hand-made chocolates. From our inception, our company has sought and continually trained individuals with experience in the art of hand crafting chocolates. We are dedicated in preserving the time consuming craft created locally by Martha Washington Chocolates some 75 years ago.
Sweet Shop USA has received national recognition for creating over 100 varieties of handmade pieces including various Truffles, Famous Brags®, Nuts and Chewies, and our signature Fudge Love®. Our success is credited to our emphasis on natural ingredients, including pure butter, fresh whipping cream, and the finest quality chocolate. Here at our factory the process of producing gourmet chocolate begins by blending the all-natural ingredients, then simmering the mixture in large kosher copper kettles. A machine?s work can never match the product of one of our hand-making experts. Our chocolatiers demonstrate intricate care and attention to detail to make our exceptional gourmet chocolate. We invest in people, not machines, who take pride in their craft. This is our American tradition. Handmade fresh, one piece at a time!
We distribute our hand made chocolate to the finest stores in the United States including Neiman Marcus, Dillard?s, Lord & Taylor, Hallmark, Hallmark Flowers, Central Market, Whole Foods and various Federated Stores. Our core customer base is comprised of small and mid-sized gourmet, gift, coffee, floral and specialty food retailers. We maintain contact with approximately 8,000 retailers currently. If you are interested in carrying our products in your store call 800-222-2269 and a customer care person can help you create your wholesale account.
We are proud to produce under two brands names in addition to our own Sweet Shop USA label: Mrs. Weinstein?s Gourmet Toffee and Price?s Fine Chocolates. Mrs. Weinstein?s Gourmet Toffee is originally of Santa Barbara, California. The toffee has won awards for Best of Show and has strong recognition in the specialty gourmet food trade. Price?s Fine Chocolates was founded in Kansas City, Missouri in 1919. It is a confectionary company with long standing recognition for their most popular creation: Annaclair?s®.
