Aggie Chocolate Factory

A disappointing experience. We scheduled a tour and when we arrived the tour guide forgot so one of the workers just did it. It wasn’t really a tour just her sharing some facts about chocolate for 10 min. They convinced us to buy some chocolate at the end and it was quite expensive. Definitely not worth it! I could not even finish one of the pieces I tried because it was so bitter. I didn’t like any of them, even the so called milk chocolate. Sadly they don’t accept any refunds but they did let us exchange which was nice. We are not from Logan but won’t take time to go back here next time.

I went here with some girl friends!!! Best chocolate ever, such a fun activity and so yummy!

My wife and I tried the raspberry frozen hot chocolate last night and now we may need to make a budget for it! SOOOO GOOD! We're excited to go to the chocolate tasting date night!

We went for a tour, and now I can't stay away! The tour was fun, interactive, and informative and the chocolate was incredible. It's like I had never tasted real chocolate before I had a piece of Aggie Chocolate. They definitely are staying right on point with the legacy of quality created by the Aggie Creamery.

I'd highly recommend the free tour, it is fun and informative on the process of how they make their chocolate, it was neat.

LOVE going here with friends and family!

Modified this review bc hrs are 1-7 PM. They changed their hours from 9-5 PM which made it hard to go there, so glad they modified their hours again. Hours shift sometimes so keep an eye on it, but they have the best hot chocolate/frozen hot chocolate in the world.

Absolutely wonderful chocolate! We also got to go on a tour directed by Dr. Silvana Martini. She was excellent at handling our large family reunion group, and interacting with everyone from the little kids to the older chocolate fans. Highly recommend!

The frozen hot chocolate was delicious! And the chocolate bar samples were divine. Definitely a must stop for any chocolate lover (especially any dark chocolate lover). The factory was clean and very organized. The employees are also willing to tell you a lot of info on the chocolate types and process.

I was excited to stop by after being told the chocolate is amazing. When I got there, they had one chocolate bar on display for over $7. I bought it and asked why there stocks were so low. The response was they were preparing for an event. perhaps timing could give you a better experience, but it seems planning for people to pop in and have a bite is not a priority.

Sure, you're heard of Aggie Creamery, but have you heard of Aggie Chocolate Factory?! Me neither, that is, until about a month ago, though I have seen their Thistle & Rose chocolate bars at local businesses, never knowing they were crafted by a team of Utah State students. So cool!

The factory is located in a courtyard shared with the Bull's Head Grill, and surrounded by student housing. I think there was a gallery, too? With no signage along the street, I was puzzled where the store might be, but just park and head to the open area with seating and such (and take note, as there are some great spots to stay and enjoy your treat!). Inside, the space is shared with Utah Artisan Mercantile, a cute café and shop selling local goods, though this further compounds the confusion! The bitty chocolate shop is housed just behind their glass walled viewing area.

Two helpful students cheerfully greeted me. The factory crafts 2 dark and 1 milk chocolate bar (Belize and Ecuador origins), the varieties also available in molded cacoa beans wrapped in colorful foil. This same chocolate is utilized for the sweets they offer: DARK (the only acceptable option) chocolate dipped cinnamon bears, dipped pretzels, and nonpareils. In the baked goods we've got chocolate chip cookies, shortbread, brownies, macarons, Nanaimo bars, mousse, cheesecake, and occasional specials (on this occasion, an éclair). A few drinks are offered: sipping chocolate, frozen hot chocolate, coffee and tea. Lastly, there are nuts, a cacoa seasoning rub, cacao beans and nibs, Butchers Bunches jam, and merch like tees and mugs. Day old treats are discounted by 50%!

My order was predestined as both frozen hot chocolate and Nanaimo bars are favorites and "must order" items. I could have selected much more, as near all goodies are just a few dollars, but I had already treated myself quite a bit that day, so showed some (now regrettable) restraint. The frozen hot chocolate is available plain, flavored with raspberry, or salted caramel. I opted to leave it pure, and as I was waiting for it to be made, I looked over the case and lamented the fact that I had not selected a pack of nibby shortbread cookies. Lo and behold, when the drink was served, they had stuck a cookie right into the whipped cream gracing the top. What luck! What presentation!

And that frozen hot chocolate! The excellent chocolate with which it was made, bloomed full of rich and fruity notes, making me all the more grateful not to have polluted it with additional flavors. The ice is slushy and so fine, the whipped cream not-too-sweet, and basically, it is what I have always wished a Frappuccino would be. The Nanaimo bar was crowned with a thick slick of their brilliant chocolate, then thick custard filling, finished with a rugged, chocolate coconut cookie-like crust. This is such a special treat that I rarely find in Utah. Make sure to try one out if given the chance.

They offer rotating daily specials, usually 20% off a particular item. The day I visited, I had also stopped by any Logan area purveyors of chocolate and sugary treats I could find, and this sweet, teeny little shop beat them all! Your purchase supports students, and it made me want to go back to school so I could learn all about how to craft such delicious bars myself! Check 'em out!
