So for our family this was not the best place to go in and get a quick inexpensive treat for everyone.
Once in we did feel obliged to buy something since the lady was so nice. The fudge we did try was pretty amazing. They have bundle packages you can buy including a variety of truffles.
Again. Expensive, but if you LOVE chocolate, spend your money here.

What a lovely shop! If you enjoy delicious homemade fudge and delectable chocolates this is the place for you! The prices were reasonable and couple running the store are very friendly. I can't wait to return, I've ordered online and the products received were fresh and tasty! Try it, you'll love it!

I was instantly attracted to the adorable building from across the street so I had to walk in . as soon as I walked in I was welcomed instantly . while looking around the store you get a very warm vibe . I purchased some fudge and a few chocolates the fudge was some of the best fudge I've had in my entire life ( I had key lime and cookies and cream !)and the chocolates were unreal I couldn't believe the huge selection. I will be returning again this spring.

Worse experience EVER. The lady attendant was SO rude and unwelcoming. I have no idea how they stay in business with her attitude. I politely asked if she made any of the chocolates in house.... "NO, we don't make anything". I then asked politely if she had any milk chocolate... "NO, we do not". I almost felt like someone from Punked was going to jump out and say I was on a TV show this lady was SO rude. I left without buying anything. Went to 3 sisters and had a great experience. Date of visit 11/19/2020 mid day

You want uber high end chocolates that will transport you to another dimension? This is the place. Everyone there is really personable and did I mention the chocolate was nirvana grade?

I love that you can buy chocolates by the piece. The lady helping us was very nice. They had some great items we had to try including key lime truffles and tiramisu truffles. Both were excellent. I also got some bear claws and some chocolate cream and fudge cream pieces. Excellent chocolates like the ones you get from a box of chocolates, but with these, you get to, pick what you get. Highly Recommend.

We have been in the shop a few times and always find new treats to try. The milkshakes are real ice cream and very flavorful. The shop also has a large selection of sugar-free delights for the diabetic family member. Will see you all again on our next trip to Blue a Ridge.

Very tasty chocolate with many items to choose from. My wife and I loved the English Toffee which was perfectly balanced in taste and toppings. Sept 27th the older lady running the shop needs to get a personality, she was rude and indifferent. Great chocolate though.

Visiting The Chocolate Express is a must! All of the fudge is made frdom scratch on site, including interesting flavors like key lime and mint chocolate swirl. It's the best fudge you will ever taste! Be sure to try Tiger Butter (my personal favorite). In addition to fudge, the shop has the widest variety of gourmet chocolates around. There is literally something for everyone, including those seeking something sugar free!! The store is super clean, and everything is perfectly displayed. The owners, Dennis and Linda, are two of the nicest people you'll meet. They know a lot about the area, and you will definitely remember them and their store on your return trips to Blue Ridge. You can order from their website too if you are not in town! The Chocolate Express adds a lot of value to Main Street in the little town of Blue Ridge. Check it out!

From the moment we entered the store we were overwhelmed with delight . My husband and I darted in from the rain and we're so happy we did. We were immediately greeted with southern charm and hometown hospitality. The samples of fudge sold us on the spot and all the selections were numerous . The creamy delicious made from scratch flavor will definitely bring us back on all our future trips to Blue Ridge . The price was very affordable and the free 1/4 lb of fudge with purchase of a pound was a nice addition . The name of this business and train decor was a nice feature in a town with the scenic railway. Also the chocolate selection was incredible and were thrilled with the sugar free selection available. Our diabetic family members at home loved it ! Don't is this slice of heaven when visiting Blue Ridge, Georgia.
