After having three previous owners, Dan’s is now currently owned and operated by the Nelson family in Joliet. Five of six sisters work side by side to bring you some of the finest gourmet chocolates, made from real ingredients, and real chocolate! While some confectionary stores offer you chocolate flavored items, Dan’s brings you the real deal!

Our selections include homemade caramels, English Toffee, cream centers in many varieties, Dandies (pecan and caramel), as well as sugar free selections and truffles, just to name a few!
