OUR CHOCOLATES
Dwight Barnes insisted on the finest ingredients — raw chocolate imported from Belgium, homemade marzipan, cocoa butter from France, and dairy cream and butter from Minnesota.
Our master chocolatiers still use those same ingredients in each B’s confection.

Barnes was also strict about using the process he learned in Belgium. No exceptions. No shortcuts.
We decided to keep doing that too.

In addition to all your nostalgic favorites — truffles, caramels, fruit creams, and the like — B’s chocolatiers hand paint few-of-a-kind masterpieces. A flock of roosters with colorful feathers? We do that. Deep red roses and pastel butterflies? We do that. How about a three-dimensional Christmas tree? You guessed it. We do that too.

From buttoned-up business gifts to creative personal expressions, B’s CHOCOLATES has exactly what you need.

OUR FOUNDER
Minnesota native Dwight Barnes loved chocolate. A photographer by trade, at age 55 he started his second career as a chocolatier. Despite his fame as a photographer and artist, making chocolate was always on his mind. This led him to Antwerp, Belgium, where he befriended world-famous Chocolatier, Hans Burie.

He convinced Mr. Burie to teach him the secrets to making the finest Belgian chocolates.

His apprenticeship over, Dwight Barnes returned home to begin making chocolate on his own. He quickly became a regional icon, drawing visitors eager to see —and taste —his masterpieces. People were hooked, and, in 1987, in Willmar, Minnesota, Mr. B’s CHOCOLATE was born.

In 2023, B’s CHOCOLATES welcomed new owners, Goose Group, who brought their retail experience and knowledge along with a passion for great chocolate to our growing company. They are committed to sharing B’s CHOCOLATES with chocolate lovers near and far.

B’s CHOCOLATES continues to faithfully serve the community that gave it its start while embracing opportunities to evolve and grow.
It’s a sweet combination that makes for an even sweeter place to shop.
