The Chocolate, Chocolate, Chocolate Company, which sells chocolates internationally, originates and is still located in St. Louis, MO. The first location is the little shop that sits on Chippewa in our beautiful neighborhood of St. Louis Hills next to Ted Drewes. The shop has expanded, and now has a factory in The Hill, as well as several locations throughout the metro area. The factory is located right off of Kingshighway, and tucked into a corner that sits next to highway 44. The factory has a store in the front for visitors to pick-up items at, and in the back is the vast number of assembly lines. The Chocolate, Chocolate, Chocolate Company just recently acquired St. Louis Chocolatier Bissingers as well, demonstrating the growing impact of the company.

Visitors to the factory can actually learn more about the company and making chocolate on the free tours the company provides. You can walk in, or make reservations. When we visited we decide to make reservations ahead of time, which took only a couple minutes and was an easy process. Upon arrival we were warmly greeted, given our hats to wear in the factory, and went on the 20 minute tour. The tour was informative, but not too long, and at the end visitors are able to get a sample of chocolate. Afterwards, we perused the store, purchased a box of various sea salt caramel chocolates, and picked out an assortment of fun truffles for ourselves – the mint chocolate was definitely our favorite! During our visit we were at The Chocolate, Chocolate, Chocolate Company for around forty five minutes total and both agreed it was a lovely, and tasty, little activity.
