One of the most delightful aspects of Gayle’s Chocolates in Cottonwood, AZ, is their extensive collection of handcrafted chocolate shapes and novelty items. From realistic animals and dinosaurs to elegant high heels, golf clubs, and even a chocolate Porsche 911, these molded creations turn chocolate into edible art.
Using custom molds, Gayle’s brings imagination to life. Popular seasonal items include turkeys for Thanksgiving, festive shapes for Christmas and Easter, and year-round favorites like stars, hearts, and vehicles. These make wonderful gifts for children, collectors, and anyone who appreciates creative confections.
The chocolate used in these novelty pieces matches the same high standard as their bars and truffles—premium, high-cacao blends in milk, dark, and white varieties. Each piece is hand-finished and carefully packaged to maintain its beauty and freshness.
Customers frequently mention these unique shapes as a highlight of their visit to the Cottonwood store. They’re not just delicious—they’re conversation starters and memorable keepsakes.
For parties and events, these novelty chocolates serve as impressive centerpieces or themed favors. Corporate clients also use them for promotional purposes, creating branded chocolate shapes that stand out.
Gayle’s commitment to creativity, started by founder Gayle Harte in 1979, continues to shine through these fun and flavorful creations.
