Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory
190 E. Stacy Road, Suite 1424, Allen
The chain is best known for selling classic treats such as caramel apples, handmade fudge, chocolate-dipped fruits and nuts, nut clusters and buttercreams made the old-fashioned way: prepared over a gas stove and cooled on a granite marble slab. At most locations, customers can watch the rustic brand of gourmet candy being made right in front of their eyes. The entire experience is a feast for the senses.
See’s Candies
Stonebriar Centre, Frisco | Nebraska Furniture Mart, The Colony | NorthPark Center, Dallas
See’s Candies was created in 1921 when mother and son Mary See and Charles See opened the first location in Pasadena. Charles designed the original storefront after the family’s black-and-white checkered home kitchen, where Mary made each creation lovingly by hand. Since then, the enterprise has expanded to over 200 locations, each featuring the same checkered design. Some of the chain’s familiar, yet still entirely gourmet, candy — such as the peanut brittle, Victoria toffee and chocolate walnut fudge — are made using Mary See’s original recipes and all of them are still made by hand.
