About Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory
A gift stop rarely needs to be the main reason for a trip, and Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory works well as one folded into a bigger errand. It occupies a unit at 2271 Harvey Avenue in the large Dilworth retail complex, one of dozens of businesses working from that same address, catching people mid-shop rather than drawing them out on its own.
Shops of this kind generally offer a mix of items made in house and packaged goods finished elsewhere, most of it built around gifting rather than everyday shopping. If you are buying for someone else, it is worth asking about nut contamination, since confectionery kitchens typically share equipment across their whole line, and about how long a given item keeps, since that varies a great deal within the trade.
For gifting, corporate boxes and holiday orders, call ahead rather than turning up and hoping. The number is 250-763-9827, and larger assortments often want a day or two of notice, more so around the December and Easter holidays when the whole trade runs flat out. Summer heat is the other consideration in this valley: chocolate does not survive an hour in a car parked on Harvey Avenue in August, so make the stop your last one before heading home rather than the first.
