Fun Candy

Chocolate Covered Wagon has more than just chocolate. We have a five pound gummy bear!! That is right, five pounds of pure awesomeness. Here it is.


But that is not all we also carry a giant gummy worm, gummy snake, and other gummy bears that are much larger than average.
 

Some of the most exciting items we carry are from Jelly Belly. We have a game made by Jelly Belly called BeanBoozled. The game is really more like Russian roulette. When it is your turn, you spin the spinner. The spinner will land on one of 10 options. Then you have to take the Jelly Belly that the spinner randomly picked for you.
 
The trick is getting a good flavor. Each Jelly Belly has two different flavors, one good, one bad. They each look exactly the same though, so you won't know if you got a good one or bad one till you have started chewing. Very dangerous.  

Chocolates

We make a wide variety of chocolate at our stores along with the famous caramels and salt water taffy. We like to mix our chocolate and caramels together, or course, making things taste better.

I'll start with our "Spokes." A spoke is a pretzel rod dipped in our caramel and then dipped in milk, dark, or white chocolate. We do offer a couple of other varieties too. White chocolate and cinnamon sugar. Milk chocolate and chopped almonds.


Another favorite of ours is the "Covered Wagons." The covered wagons are know more fondly as turtles. Caramel, chocolate, and nuts. We make five different kinds of covered wagons. One has caramel, milk or dark chocolate, and pecans. Another has caramel, milk or dark chocolate, and cashews. Last but not least, we make a covered wagon with caramel, white chocolate, and macadamia nuts.


We also have many different truffles to choose from as well. So you don't have to choose, we have a two pack, four pack, twelve pack, and twenty four pack of truffles, all assorted and milk chocolate.

Fun with Fudge

Another treat we make at the Chocolate Covered Wagon is fudge. We make many different kinds of fudge throughout the year for different holidays. For example, at Halloween we make a fudge called Pumpkin Cookie. We make a Pumpkin spice fudge and then put fresh pumpkin cookies in the middle.

We have bulk fudge at all of our locations so anyone can have a sample of their choice. We sell fudge for $12.95 a pound but we have a standing special: buy a pound and get a quarter pound for free. This is a good opportunity for customers to have a good variety of different fudge flavors or a lot of your favorite flavor. We also make some of our better selling fudges in one half-pound gift trays, which go great in gift bags and boxes we make.

Some popular flavors we make are:
Cookies and Cream
 

Pecan Turtle





Peanut Butter


Raspberry Cheesecake


Salted Peanut Roll

Gourmet Caramel Apples - Part One

We have made a goal for ourselves to make the best caramel apples in the world. Anyone who has tasted one of our apples will say we make some pretty good ones.

The caramel we use for our caramel apples is not the same caramel we sell by the pound. The recipe differs a little bit, but for the most part it is very similar. The caramel apple caramel is a secret recipe. It was developed by Cindy, the owner, over a long time and many bad batches. After we have cooked the caramel, we are ready to dip fresh, crisp granny smith apples into the caramel. We use granny smith apples because there is a good contrast between the sweetness of the caramel and the tartness of the apple.

Here are some of the caramel apples we sell:

Plain Caramel Apple - A granny smith apple dipped in delicious caramel


Rodeo Caramel Apple - A plain caramel apple drizzled with milk and dark chocolate


Sea Salt Caramel Apple - A caramel apple drizzled with either milk or dark chocolate and sprinkled with sea salt.
