Barkus Chocolates

Barkus Chocolates was originally founded in 1953 in Pittsburgh, and over the years, it expanded to several other locations. This location in Butler opened in 1994. Barkus Chocolates sells a variety of chocolates, such as cordial cherries, chocolate-covered pretzels, peanut butter melt-aways, chocolate-covered potato chips, s'mores, pecan turtles, caramel patties, caramel apples, truffles, peanut clusters, and many others.Through Barkus Chocolates's website, I ordered a potato chip stack ($4.25), a peanut butter cup ($7.25), a s'more ($9.50), and an 8-ounce box of assorted milk chocolates ($17.95). Shipping cost $7.87. The next day, Barkus Chocolates shipped my package via the USPS. One day later, the USPS delivered the package to my house. I felt happy with the speed of the shipping.I enjoyed the flavors of most of the chocolates. The box of assorted chocolates included flavors such as cordial cherry (5 stars!), raspberry, mint, cashews, peanuts, coconut, raisins, orange, etcetera.

For my husband's birthday, a friend surprised him with a Lady Lock and a Sundae Cake! They were fabulous (and I am not a chocolate cake person!) I wish I had taken a picture but I really didn't need to, they look just like the pictures on their website!

I worked here for the holiday season, and the experience was wonderful! Management has everything down-pat, and workers in the back know what they're doing.Everyone's beautifully efficient and graciously friendly.It's a great place!I enjoy our chocolate-covered fruits best, and the chocolate-covered marshmallows.Our truffles and cakes are yummy, and there's not an hour or time I'd suggest getting there before. A little on the sweet-side, (but I'm a fan of Japanese deserts... So...) they were being bought-up on off days!

Took my mother here to grab a cake as she used go to the one in Bellevue growing up and heard this was the same Barkus family. We got some sort of chocolate fudge cake, some cake pops, and lady locks. All were legit awesome. I have no idea what was in this cake, but it was amazing. We will certainly be ordering and coming back for more. The only thing I'll say is they probably could have had a slightly better cake selection. There were only two kinds of cake in their case so we know to order if we have something particular in mind.

I bought some dark chocolate covered peanut clusters and dark chocolate almonds. The chocolate was not rich or had much flavor. For what they charge a pound I thought it would be some great dark chocolate but I was disappointed and not impressed. Not up there with Seas or even what I get at Costco.

very substandard sweet shop. their milk chocolate has a waxy feel and an artificial taste. for the prices they charge you would think that they would at least use real vanilla - but they do not. the major disappointment was the very small $18.95 fruit cake - a bland, cakey affair with very few nuts...a real rip off!!

Good luck getting baked goods. Pathetic bake staff hours....you can get baked goods after October on Thursday after 12n...terrible

The chocolate is very good. That being said I was disappointed when I got there and asked the cashier if they had baskets, she had attitude right off the bat and pointed and shook her head like I should have known where the baskets were. I then scoured the shelves and ended up getting $50 of different chocolates. I got up to the register and the price was more than I thought I asked about the lb of bark I got. She had a sassy attitude when responding to me and said the price I then said oh I misread the sign could I only get 1/4 lb she quietly and miserably took the chocolate out of the bag and gave me 1/4 lb and threw the voided receipt on the back counter then barked at another employee to finish the void. Plain and simple the customer service was horrible and she had major attitude issues.

I love Barkus and always stop here when I'm home. They put chocolate covered potato chips on the map! We love their milk chocolate. Even my bf who is normally a dark choc fan prefers their milk chocolate. It's heaven!

I get my wife's birthday cake here every year also have purchased their chocolates and I will tell you, you won' get any better any where else! Their stuff is awesome
