If it weren't for photos online I wouldn't have known that you can walk into this little storefront where you can taste a variety of candy at their tasting bar! FOR FREE! From the outside it looks just like an industrial building but we went in and was greeted by this friendly lady at the counter. I told her it was our first time and she gave us a little rundown of the company, what they were most known for (Sunburst) and showed us the Tasting Bar. If it wasn't for the brilliant idea of that tasting bar my boyfriend wouldn't have found his new favorite snack; The Kimmie Corn. Unfortunately, they don't hold in person tours of the factory anymore since COVID but they do offer Virtual Tours! And the woman that helped us was very informative of any questions we had, definitely will go back because we didn't get to have some FOYO! There's a small frozen yogurt machine I believe they were charging $3.50? I didn't ask about the size. A few of my favorites were the Jelly Belly dispenser where you fill your own bag according to your size preference, the prices were posted up on the displays. Sorry I don't remember the pricing just that it was all reasonably priced. Next was the Harry Potter chocolate section, I love Harry Potter so you know I had to buy a couple things (not pictured). They also have gift baskets available for purchase, great for gifts! I also loved their mint, I can't remember what it was called but it was only $0.50 a piece so I decided to grab a couple just to try. Man I should have bought a bag cause we loved it. I prefer it over Andes mint chocolate and Andes is my favorite. "Made out of 100% Peppermint oil" I remember reading on the container. Lastly, Punch cards was also a thing! Which I love! We spent about $25 for a decent amount of candy we had (not all pictured). So for Every $5 you spend you collect a stamp, collect enough to get $5 off your next purchase. You know I will be back soon!

Small candy factory behind the airport area in reno. They have a small candy store. The candies are very good and the pricing is very reasonable. You can taste their candies too.

I've seen Kimmie Candy products in the store and have known they were a local company through work but this was my first visit to their facilities. It was really cool, clean and had a lot of variety of candy. They even had an ice cream machine. I like their products, especially the ChocoRocks and the Salted Caramel ChocoRocks; the charcoal looking ChocoRocks makes for a fun and funny stocking stiffer around Christmas time. The two ladies at the store were really friendly and nice. It's great to be able to support our local businesses.

I first heard about Kimmie Candy at the Yelp's Great NV Gift Swap event. Their VP of Business Development, Alex Johnson, shared the history of Kimmie Candy and gave us an idea of how kind and passionate the people are behind this business. Alex's personal story with Kimmie Candy was very compelling, and I was moved to reach out to him, not just to thank him for sharing his story, but also for giving out samples for our goodie bags from the event. Around this time, I was gathering some gifts to give to a non-profit organization in town, and I thought Kimmie Candy chocolates would be a great addition. Not only would the chocolates be a sure winner, I would also be supporting a local business in the process. I reached out to Alex and he was very accommodating right off the bat. He agreed to meet me at Kimmie Candy's chocolate factory. Yes, Reno has its own chocolate factory ala Willy Wonka (how did I not know about this before???). The facility is closed at the moment, but I could just see how magical a place this would be to visit for kids and chocoholics alike. There were all kinds of chocolates on display. Good thing I was focused on getting Christmas-y stuff. Otherwise, I would be so overwhelmed with all the varieties to choose from. I settled for festive choco chunks, peppermint choco rocks, salted caramel choco rocks, bear droppings, sunbursts (choc coated sunflower kernels), and for my own personal stash ~ dark chocolate covered espresso beans. Not only did Alex gave me a really deep discount, he threw in a bunch of extra samples as well. I was supposed to be there to support the business, but he ended up supporting me instead! I was so touched by his generosity. I am sure the recipients of the gifts would absolutely love the chocolates that Kimmie Candy generously provided. So, from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU, Alex and Kimmie Candy. Reno is so lucky to have a business such as yours in this community. I cannot wait to visit when the factory reopens for tours!
