Munson’s Chocolates

This place has a large variety and options for everyone. The price is pretty good, I’m not a candy person but my GF is… So judging by her commentary i will give this a pretty good ranking she is a candy expert and previously worked in a chocolate shop.

Munson’s chocolates has been my family’s choice chocolatier for ages. I remember my Dad stopping by the airport shop on his way home from Bradley, and getting us the munsonette «cookies» (a circular, flat-​ish chocolate with mini m&ms in it).
Now that I’m older and can afford any quality chocolate I want, and live in Boston, I still daydream about Munson’s and stop by every chance I get. It’s not quite new, but recently they have started doing chocolate dipped bananas and ice cream sandwiches. Dreamy!
Some of my personal favorites are the peanut butter milk caramels, chocolate covered Jordan crackers, and chocolate covered s’mores. I also am obsessed with their… I forget what it’s called. Chocolate covered toffee with chopped nuts on top. It’s my mom’s personal favorite, and annoyingly even if we get some to share, she eats it all. Rude!
I went to a wedding where the party favors were a 4 pack of Munson’s truffles, and my sister and I went bananas. We snatched as many as we could!

I love Muson’s chocolates. They have wonderful candies and their stores are clean, well organized and the staff is always helpful. Try something with toffee in it (crème brule truffel is my favorite!).

MMmmmmmm… homemade and handmade chocolate… drools…
That is all.
Seriously though, YAY for local chocolatier. I’m so glad they are ballsy enough to be located next to Victoria’s Secret! Not happy with how you look in the lingerie? Come console yourself at Munson’s!
Parking is a bear and it’s a one way round about. Pull around to the rear and walk through to avoid that whole mess.

I have never had tastier chocolate, and I’ve done quite a bit of sampling. Munson’s has an incredible variety of delicious treats, including strange inventions that end up being surprisingly tasty, such as chocolate mixed with broken potato chips (bringing my junk food intake to unprecedented levels). Sometimes it’s fun to just walk into the shop– the enveloping smell of sweet decadence quickly washes away stress (unless you realize you don’t have any money to spend, at which point the stress gives way to sheer agony).
For the chocolate lover, liker, sampler, dilettante, whatever. Just try it, and you’ll be VERY glad you did.

I am a chocoholic. Connecticut has one of the best local chocolate makers around – Munson’s. If you have friends and family visiting you from out of state take them to one of the Munson’s locations. The truffles are the best most especially the white caramel truffle. Their malted milk balls are huge and disappear rather quickly — from my bag that is. If you have the opportunity, be sure to visit the Mother Ship in Bolton — factory seconds really cheap. You know what, it’s all good.
