This morning the Palisade was at Lithia Hyundai for routine maintenance. We wanted something to do while waiting for the car. BB noticed that Alaska Wild Berry Products was nearby. Several people mentioned that wonderful chocolates and fudge were found there. They also talked about a big chocolate fountain.
We left the car at Hyundai and set off for Alaska Wild Berry Products. It was about four blocks and a five minute walk to the store. It was raining, but that didn't stop us!
Alaska Wild Berry Products is the largest candy manufacturer in Alaska. While chocolates and fudge were my main interest, the store also has wild berry jams and jellies, and a wide selection of Alaska souvenirs and gifts.
We entered the main door...and there it was ... the CHOCOLATE WATERFALL. Over 3,000 pounds of chocolate drop through five copper candy kettles before falling into a chocolate pool. This 20 foot chocolate waterfall is said to be the largest one in the world.
Our list of record holders encountered during this adventure increases by one. The updated list:
The largest Buffalo, Moose and Beaver statues
The largest gold pan (maybe)
Just missed seeing the largest golf ball (used to be here, they took it away a while back)
The largest Chocolate Waterfall
We got chocolate and maple fudge. We are saving them to have for a treat after supper. We'll see if they last that long.
