The sign(s?) on the interstate don’t lie – you gotta stop at Drew’s Chocolates! It’s tucked in the basement of a house. But don’t let that stop you. Inside you will be in chocolate heaven. it smells amazing! You can buy chocolates by the piece or boxes of seasonal assortments. It’s super tasty and inexpensive. Check them out if you are heading on i-80!

There is no chocolate like Drew’s Chocolates. Seriously. The sea salt caramels are to die for! My mother and I stopped and got a box and Jason, the owner, let us sample many different kinds and then helped us choose which flavors to get. They were all wonderful. My favorite thing that they make is chocolate covered potato chips. I think you have to special order them, but I always do when I am going to be in the state because they are so hard to find. I have tired them at other places here, like Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory, and they are not on the same level at all. Maybe it’s because they are hand dipped and in small batches. Worth every calorie. And as a bonus, they ship! This can be a little dangerous, but a great idea for those of us who live far, far away. It’s a good thing that I moved across the country or I would be a lot fatter from eating these yummy treats all the time! 5 stars and worth the drive from Des Moines for sure!

I live in Des Moines and we have several places to get chocolates, including Chocolaterie Stam and Chocolate Storybook. I will still go out of my way for Drew’s Chocolates, because in my opinion they taste the best. The orange creams, coconut creams, and sea salt caramels are my favorites. Every holiday, my mom from NW Iowa orders chocolates to give out as gifts at the independent senior community she manages, and when my sister visits from Tucson, AZ, she insists on getting chocolate covered chips from Drews. I would recommend it every time!

I am a big, big fan of Drew’s! This visit, the co-owner offered my husband and me each a sample of a dark chocolate caramel topped with sea salt. So delicious, very memorable. Drew’s offers a great variety of chocolates, each fork-dipped. My favorite is and always has been the white chocolate and raspberry-filled truffle. I’ve never tasted white chocolate so good. This small business is just minutes north off I-80, pretty convenient if you’re traveling through. Looking for a last-minute gift? Chocolates are the answer. Want quality road munchies? Chocolates are again the answer. Shop small; support this local Iowa business!

Stopped in while road tripping to Chicago along I-80 — needed to get a box of milk chocolate caramels as a gift. We’ve been here a few times and always love it, and we’re more than happy to pay their prices for these delicious hand-dipped treats. Got a peanut butter cup and a toffee chocolate for myself — delicious. Owner let us sample their new salted, dark chocolate caramels. AWESOME. Expensive? Yes. But where else can you get hand-dipped chocolates made with REAL chocolate? Not too many places, especially in Iowa. Everyone who’s a chocolate lover and happens to be driving by Dexter, IA should stop in – well worth it.
