Northern California Sweet Tours

What’s chewy and sweet and comes in crazy flavors ranging from lemon to buttered popcorn? The Jelly Belly, of course. Make a sweet trip of your visit to northern California by experiencing the Jelly Belly factory in Fairfield, California then driving an hour down over the Golden Gate Bridge to San Francisco, where you can delight in hot fudge sundaes in the famous Ghiradelli Square, and after, head east over the Bay Bridge to the Scharffen Berger Chocolate factory in the historically hippie town of Berkeley, California.

If you want to get a little more intimate with your candy experience, there are brilliant small and renowned sweet stops all along the way. Taste the hand-crafted chocolates of Michael Mischer Chocolates in Oakland, where the cocoa beans are grown and produced right in California; visit world master chocolatier Joseph Schmidt’s Confections shop started 25 years ago in San Francisco; or indulge in a dessert by famous pastry chef Elizabeth Falkner at her patisserie cleverly named “Citizen Cake.”

The San Francisco Bay Area is loaded with amazing eateries which makes it the ideal place to visit for a delicious weekend or stay longer to enjoy the many other attractions, unique neighborhoods, and historical landmarks northern California has to offer.
