As a kid it was easy to pass up the fudge counter and go straight for their signature carmel apples, but now that my palate is a bit more sophisticated the Rocky Road Fudge complete with marshmallows and walnuts is the first thing I’ll order. If you don’t want to get too fancy the Plain ’ol Fudge is just as tasty.

Get your chocolate "fix"

For many, like me, getting your sugar fix is a necessary addiction.

Chocolate Pizza? YES PLEASE.

This isn’t an adolescent creation, restaurants and chefs (thank you Giada De Laurentiis) praise this chocolate pie.

This is the MECCA of all chocolate restaurants, when you read the menu you may go into sugar-coma. Chocolate pizza is a specialty.
