Filed under: Gourmets + Gourmands — admin @ 12:43 am

Fannie May had humble beginnings, but it has verified that terrific service, high quality, and a carefully chosen range are the secret recipe for success. This much loved chocolate shop began trading in 1920 in Chicago, Illinois, and during 85 years of trading it has turned into one of the nation’s favorite sweet shops. Fannie May’s gift of combining cocoa, sugar and other premium ingredients in the perfect way made them so popular they expanded to just under forty eight shops in merely fifteen years. During WWII rationing, the shops were closed, as they refused to degrade the quality of any products. A range of these closely guarded recipes are even being used and savored all these years later. Almost as fine as their scrumptious chocolate are the especially designed presentation boxes they come in. Stunning presentation packages and baskets add that something special and you will have a present anyone will treasure. How much you spend is altogether your choice, going from simply one perfect chocolate treat to a hamper crammed with each sort of truffle, fruit creams and nearly any other sort you can think of made by Fannie May. There are many unique gifts online, or you can buy specific fillings and simply choose which box is most suitable.

What’s even more convenient, Fannie May has a solid network of branches across the US and worldwide. So you can place an order on the internet and have your gift box delivered anywhere at home or abroad. There are a few items which are not recommended for shipping during the summer, but Fannie May has the network in place to deliver all sorts of gifts worldwide.

Even family or friends with particular dietary needs are no problem for Fannie May. Fannie May’s have diet friendly chocolate and other delicacies too. If you are planning a special occasion like a marriage, tiny gifts and wedding favors are available too. You simply need to phone them up and let them know precisely what you want.

Fannie May has become such a flourishing chocolate manufacturer and it’s all down to its dedication to manufacture quality products, service and its unique selection. Indeed, with candies like each sort of chocolate, nougat, and buttercream fillings, the most difficult task is not ordering their entire inventory!
