I recently received a box of assorted chocolate smothered pretzels<\/a> from Asher’s<\/a> to review. \u00a0I really like chocolate covered pretzels, something about the sweet and salty taste that is so delicious. \u00a0My teenage son got into these before I even did the review. \u00a0He thought they were pretty good and thankfully left some for us to try. \u00a0The pretzels are covered in thick dark or milk chocolate and are absolutely delicious. \u00a0I would like to do another taste test but they are all gone, they were that good. \u00a0Asher’s is a generations old family business and you will find that their many delicious confections would make great gifts this holiday season. \u00a0Who doesn’t like chocolate?<\/p>\n A Scottish farm boy hailing from Ontario, Canada, Chester A. Asher had a mind for business and a passion for confections. He worked for a candy factory in Boston briefly, before he decided to break out on his own as a confectioner. In 1892, he founded the Asher\u2019s candy making business in Center City Philadelphia. Within a few years, he moved the successful company to Philadelphia\u2019s historic Germantown section\u00a0The original recipes (many of which are still used today) were written by Chester himself on the back of the sugar bags! Passersby could gaze at the original storefront window where chocolate collections and “sweets from all over the world” including European style bonbons and rare candies were displayed.<\/p>\n Everyone at Asher\u2019s Chocolates is committed to continuing the tradition of producing fine quality chocolates. The company offers a wide selection of chocolates and other confections from Pecan Caramel Patties to its award-winning Chocolate Covered Pretzels and creamy Fudge. Accommodating customers\u2019 needs, Asher\u2019s also has the largest line of Sugar Free, Low Sodium Chocolates in the industry. Innovation and expansion remain at its core \u2013 so expect to see many new and exciting products as we continue into the next century. The future looks delicious!<\/p>\n Asher’s<\/a> is sponsoring a give-away on Mommy Ramblings. \u00a0One lucky winner will win their own box of Asher’s Assorted Chocolate Smothered Pretzels<\/a>. \u00a0Thank you Asher’s<\/a> for the review pretzels and for sponsoring this delicious give-away on Mommy Ramblings.
