Perth Chocolate Works is family owned and operated artisan chocolatier kitchen and chocolate retail store located in the beautiful historic Code’s Mill building at 17 Wilson Street East in Perth, Ontario. All of our chocolates are made from the highest quality ingredients - locally sourced when possible - in small batches in our on-site kitchen. We turned our family’s passion into a way of life and are fortunate to be celebrating over 20 years of business! Perth Chocolate Works originally started on Manitoulin Island and chose the ‘Prettiest Town in Ontario’ to expand with our second location. Perth opened its doors to the McKeen family and it automatically felt like a home away from home. Our passion is chocolate! It brings us joy, whether it is enjoyed as a self-indulgence or given as a gift. Our team wants you to get a taste of what chocolate and genuinely tasty treats mean to us! So from our family to yours, we hope you enjoy your Chocolate Works experience.
