Locally owned and operated since 2008.
Barkeater Chocolates’ original confectioners and owners still operate the business today. They started with the idea to bring fine chocolate production back to the area and has since grown into a beloved regional favorite.
The owners are proud of their humble beginnings - beginning with just five recipes. Today, Barkeater Chocolate offers a variety of premium chocolates that have earned them numerous awards in the field.
The team at Barkeater also makes sure to give back to their community as well - they've partnered with local farmers to source ingredients, support initiatives such as the Adirondack Youth Climate Summit, and donate to the North Creek Food Pantry.
It's clear that Barkeater Chocolate has grown into one of the Adirondacks' finest purveyors of gourmet, hand-crafted delights made with the finest, locally sourced ingredients.. Looking ahead, there is no doubt that their delicious chocolate will continue to bring smiles for years to come! Congratulations and best wishes!
