Our Friends

We have been making Chocolates for what seems like forever and love every minute of being a part of everyone’s celebrations. We offer a wide selection of Chocolate treats with our most popular being HotChocStics. Our favourite stories are the ones about our HotChocStics becoming Family Traditions where families gather for Christmas Eve or Christmas morning and everyone shares a yummy mug of Hot Chocolate.

We really believe that Hot Chocolate is a Hug in a Mug!

Have a Happy Day!

I started Tickled Tea in the fall of 2016 with the desire to create fun and unique tea blends that don’t skip on flagour. With ingredients ranging from chocolate chips and sprinkles to holistic herbs and tropical fruits, Tickled Tea’s aren’t like what Grandma used to make. Based out of Stony Plain, AB, every batch of delicious Tickled Tea is hand-blended in a home kitchen that has been inspected and approved by Alberta Health Services. 

So go ahead and tickle your tastebuds!

Our orchard is located near Lac La Biche Alberta, we use no herbicides, no pesticides, and no chemicals!! All natural ingredients with no added sodium or MSG.

Our passion for serving Calgarians with unique products led us to open Going Nuts in 2004. Originally based at the Calgary Farmers’ Market in the Currie Barracks, Going Nuts started with only 3 flavours of nuts. The company has expanded organically over the years and now operates in Farmers’ Markets in Calgary, Edmonton and Red Deer. Our son, Jeremy and nephew, Brian are now in charge of the day to day operations of Going Nuts.

Choco-licious launched in 2012 and continues to be a small, local family owned and operated business. 

We started Choco-licious because...well...we have an obsession with candy! Not just any candy! Those who know us will tell you, we are a bit METICULOUS, so our ingredients are of the highest quality, prepared in a spotless environment, presented in a fun and appealing way, with unique new products introduced regularly. 

Since we started, our highly addictive products have become popular, sought after favorites for everyone. It doesn’t matter if you’re two or ninety-two, once you taste one of our Choco-licious treats, you’re hooked! In addition to online sales, Choco-licious is now available at a number of retail boutique locations. We are also very proud to support a variety of community fundraising initiatives. 

Choco-licious is truly a family team effort, so we thank you. Because of your loyalty...and your sweet tooth... our little business continues to grow. And as we grow, we continue to give back...to help make our community strong.

Because to us, that’s what true success is really all about!

If you have never tried to make caramel yourself, allow us to paint a picture for you: Imagine trying to pull teeth from a shark... a hungry, angry shark... that is also on fire... and you have to pull the teeth using jello. Figure that one out.

That is what it is like trying to make caramel. One degree over, or under temperature, and you can kiss that succulent smelling hot mess goodbye. After some shed tears, and choice words, we brush ourselves off and start all over again. 

As you can imagine, it took hours, upon hours, in the kitchen trying to perfect the recipe. After all of the hard work, dedication, and not to mention all of the burns from the hot caramels (it’s not a joke people. We risk our lives to bring you these candies..... WORTH IT!) we have finally ended up with the recipe that we all know and love. There’s nothing mysterious about it, there are no chemical preservatives, and everything is made by hand.

Every caramel is created, cut, wrapped, cellophaned, and packaged with love... You won’t find ’love’ on our ingredient list, but we can assure you that it’s in there!
