Absolutely loved Chelsea's chocolates. Visited 4 times in 6 days during our vacation in the Horseshoe Valley area. My favorite was the (dark chocolate) salted caramel and the ice wine.
The Business Owner Replied:
Haha! Our 'caramel fleur de sel' is definately a favourite for all of us here too! Great to hear from you Julie - Thank you!

Chelsea chocolates is totally amazing! I got my chocolate smash wedding cake filled with truffles from Laurie. She was so kind and patient and easy to deal with as well. I also had chocolate covered sponge toffee for my wedding favours. It was packaged nicely and so easy to set out. I highly recommend Laurie and her team for any of your wedding needs.

OMG- what a wonderful and delicious surprise to find so close to us! This has got to be the best tasting chocolate I have had in a long time. The caramel turtles were amazing- not overly sweet but sooooo tasty. Treated myself and family for Valentine’s Day, can’t wait till Easter!! Thanks again- Perri

Thank you Perri! So great to hear from you! Enjoy every bite and we look forward to seeing you back at Easter.

My husband and I LOVE Chelsea's chocolates!!! We are in the area about four times a year and the first stop we always make is Chelsea's. Any flavour we have tried is absolutely delicious, a perfect dessert! Quite often we find we have underestimated the amount we will devour and find ourselves going back for more! And Laurie and staff are SO friendly!

That makes us so happy to hear - we love what we do!!! Thank you for sharing this with us and hope to see you back again!

I had about 150 Icewine truffles ordered for wedding favours! It was an absolute pleasure dealing with the staff, who were more than happy to make the truffles into a heart shape (and surprised me with a pink drizzle!) rather than the traditional grapevine shape. Everyone couldn't get enough and I had so many complements. For the flavour, the chocolate quality, and the price, I honestly don't think you can find anything better. I have been a repeat customer since and haven't found a product in the shop I haven't loved!
The Business Owner Replied:
WE LOVE HEARING THAT!!! Thank you so much for letting us know. We're proud to be a part of your wedding day - great to hear from you!

The chocolates, variety and service is so good. It's also great to go inside for the chocolate aroma. The store is great and as a neighbour across the road I don't get over there as much as people think I would. They are a great neighbour but also worth driving to and they put on tours for groups too.
The Business Owner Replied:
Thank you Edward!! You're always sending family and friends our way and we very much appreciate your support and kind words. Great having you as neighbours too!

Had the fortune to purchase Icewine chocolates from Konzelmann Estate Winery on Niagara-On-The-Lake June 4. My wife & I were celebrating our 35 wedding anniversary. These chocolates are exquisite. Hard chocolate shell, soft Devine centre. Light and dark chocolate. I love dark chocolate but the light is nothing to snub your palate from. I Need more! Thank you for this experience. Chris Bamber

If you are a chocolate lover Chelsea Chocolates is a place you need to go to. Laurie and her team go out of their way to help everyone who stops in. The chocolate is the best we have tasted! They even do special orders for and occasion or anytime you call and ask for something. It is a quaint little country store just outside of Barrie in Craighurst and very much worth the detour if you are in the area.
The Business Owner Replied:
Thank you Darren!!! It's all about the caramel at your house . . . hmmm. We really appreciate your comments!

Well, first off, you get out of your vehicle and hear the birds singing in the trees. Then you enter the store and the aroma of decadent chocolate engulfs you. Then as you are wiping the dripping saliva from the sides of your mouth, your eyes start to scan the beautiful chocolate displays and then you see through the door the beautiful workers making beautiful chocolate creations in the factory and then you make your purchase and enjoy eating it and come back as often you can for more!! Need I say more!

During our stay at in the Horseshoe Valley we had to go twice because the chocolate was disappearing (I blame the kids for that). I loved their truffle, but the best was the double dip Oreo cookie. I think we bought 15 of them...

I had a smash cake made for my wedding a couple of years ago by Chelsea Chocolates. I had sent in a photo of a cake I wanted mine to look similar too. On the day of my wedding when I saw the cake I couldn't have been happier! It was perfect and looked just how I wanted it!! I wish I could post a picture of it. And the chocolate tastes amazing!!! A great business with a great product!

I LOVE Chelsea Chocolates. I have never had such delicious chocolate in my life and I eat a lot of chocolate (lol) The ice wine chocolate is amazing, highly recommend. They have so many different varieties. Perfect little gifts for any chocolate lover. I was once gifted a horse-shaped chocolate that was almost too beautiful to eat. The staff are very friendly and welcoming.

I purchased Chelsea Chocolates Belgian Treats to hand out at Business Trade Shows that I attend to promote Shop Locally. I really wanted to have something at my booth that’s made locally and who’s also client. I knew that the people kept coming back to my booth solely for the Chocolates. I am not even sure they even knew what business I was promoting. I actually believe they though my booth was for Chelsea Chocolates. They especial loved the Ice Wine Cube samples in Milk and Dark Chocolate! I would definitely recommend Chelsea Chocolates as a promotional treat or gift for any occasion. They do steal the show!

We always see the shop on our drives. One day my husband and I decided to drop in OMG....best decision ever. We got 15 chocolates from the display case because we wanted to try all different ones. The maple and orange chocolates are my favourite. My husband usually doesn't like too much chocolate but he LOVES the ice chocolates. On our way back that day we stopped in again and my husband got a small box of just ice chocolates. Guess what he found in his Christmas stocking last year! Thank God our daughter lives close to Chelsea chocolates! These are by far THE best chocolates we've had.

I would be willing to bet that there isn't a chocolate turtle in the world that can beat Chelsea Chocolate's! I guarantee the incredible gooey homemade caramel will beat any you've ever tasted, pairing marvelously with the toasted pecan, all deliciously encased in that incredible Belgian chocolate. You can just tell they are lovingly made in small batches. It's a toss up whether my favourites are the turtles or the incredible orange creams, which again, beat any others I've had. I live close by to Chelsea Chocolates, and have to restrain myself every day from going in to indulge. I save it for special occasions, or when visiting friends and family demand a trip inside.

Chelsea's Chocolate's are my all time favourite! I have been going there for years. My husband's family is in Austria & Germany and we have dear friends in France. They all bring chocolate to Canada because they think Canada doesn't have good chocolate. In March when my husband was in Europe, I sent him with Chelsea's Chocolate's to give to everyone in Europe. They could not believe how good they were and they were eaten up in no time. Suddenly, they believe Canada has excellent chocolates! I love my chocolate and no one makes better chocolate than Chelsea's Chocolate. Even my kids know, at Mother's Day or my birthday, to make a stop at Chelsea's to make my day!

I drove by Chelsea's Chocolates everyday for 2 years while I attended Georgian College! I finally decided to stop in one sunny afternoon and I'm sure glad I did!! Absolutely one of the best chocolate caramels I have ever had! I love how small and quaint the store is! You know everything is always fresh and the staff is so helpful! 5 out of 5 would recommend to anyone in Simcoe County! My only disappointment is that I'm graduating in June and won't be driving by as often!!

We absolutely loved our wedding smash cake!!! It was three tiers of chocolate heaven! They even customized it covering it in white chocolate and accessorized to match our colours. No one likes wedding cake anyway a waste that never is eaten but these chocolates were devoured! Everyone loved The cutting or rather smashing of the cake! I would recommend to anyone as an alternative to a regular cake!

While shopping at the Barrie Olive Oil Company, I picked up a box of Chelsea Chocolates "balsamic truffles" (truffles infused with balsamic and olive oil). These are absolutely AMAZING! The flavours are wonderful and the truffles are smooth and creamy. Should come with a warning label - "These Truffles are highly Addictive"!

I was at Chelsea Chocolates servicing their computer. While there I was treated to some amazing chocolates. I'm not much of a chocolate lover, but their products could convert me!
