 Friday is

National Cocoa Day!

To celebrate the liquid happiness everyone loves, hot chocolate, we're proposing partnering it with some of our confectionery creations... The first takes a holiday classic and adds a whole new layer of complexity and delight (chocolate of course!). We take soft peppermint candy canes, already so light they melt in your mouth, and dip them in our rich chocolate. Now they're even more perfect for melting in your cocoa! It's a double whammy - extra chocolate AND a minty touch added to your hot chocolate. And don't worry...we've left your delicate digits a place to grip the sweet magic wand...the top of the candy cane is left undipped, for your viewing and stirring pleasure! Think candy canes are only for those who celebrate Christmas? Be prepared to have your preconceptions turned on their heads because we also have brilliant blue and white striped candy canes for Hanukkah! Whichever holiday you celebrate, peppermint, chocolate, and cocoa undoubtedly need to be a part of it. Come by our factory store to pick up some chocolate dipped candy canes for an at-home educational experimint...about how

peppermint + chocolate + (hot) chocolate = bliss!

Want to celebrate National Cocoa Day but can't make it in to our store? Order some Chocolate Covered Marshmallows on our website www.coltschocolates.com! We have marshmallows for every breed of chocoholic... Milk Chocolate Covered Marshmallows for those with an affinity for the creamy sweetness of fresh dairy, Mighty Marshmallows cloaked in refreshingly rich dark chocolate if you're a purist, and Demi-Dark Marshmallows if you crave the highest chocolate-to-marshmallow ratio and the thrill of popping bite-sized treats in your mouth at an alarmigly high rate.

Holiday Hours

It's a time-honored company tradition here at Colts to close from Christmas to New Year's Day. We will also have a half day on Christmas Eve and will be open from 8 to 1. We want to give our employees time to enjoy the holiday season with their families! We've been preparing for Christmas since July (yes, it's true!), so our employees have certainly earned a little down time. Please place your online orders or come by the store before Christmas for anything you will need until the New Year. Thank you for your understanding!
