Nashville’s Sweetest Transformation: Goo Goo Chocolate Co. Debuts After Major Renovation
Nashville is buzzing with excitement as the beloved Goo Goo Cluster restaurant has just unveiled a spectacular $2 million renovation, now christened as the Goo Goo Chocolate Co.. This new exploration of sweet treats officially opened its doors on November 5, after a careful seven-month transformation.
A Sweet Heritage
For more than a century, the Goo Goo Cluster has delighted taste buds across the nation. First introduced in 1912 by the Standard Candy Company, this candy bar holds the title of being America’s first-ever combination candy bar. Since then, Goo Goo has continued to evolve, maintaining its classic charm while excitedly stepping into the world of modern candy-making.
What’s New?
The revamped chocolate shop offers an array of delectable options that are sure to tantalize your sweet tooth! Guests can indulge in some exciting new additions like boozy milkshakes that combine your sweet tooth with a touch of spirited bliss. If you’re feeling adventurous, why not explore a few whiskey and wine pairings that promise to elevate your tasting experience?
Hands-On Fun
But that’s not all! The Goo Goo Chocolate Co. encourages guests to tap into their creativity with engaging and interactive experiences. You can roll up your sleeves and partake in candy-making classes, where you’ll learn the craft of creating mouthwatering confections yourself. Each class accommodates up to 16 people and costs $50 per participant. Classes can easily be registered for online or right on-site.
Custom Candy Creations
Feeling like a master chocolatier? The new “Design Your Own Premium” confection station allows customers to be the boss of their own candy creations. Patrons choose from a delightful selection of forms and flavors by using touch-screen machines. Choose from scrumptious fillings like vanilla nougat, luxurious Nutella, or rich salted caramel. Not to mention, toppings galore await – think rainbow sprinkles, crushed Oreos, toffee bits, roasted peanuts, Fruity Pebbles, and even potato chips!
Whimsical Decor and Visual Delights
The renovated space is a visual feast itself! With whimsical decor that includes faux chocolate-coated light bulbs and dynamic conveyor belts adorned with candy boxes, it’s the perfect place to escape reality. Plus, you can watch through a glass window as your unique candy creation comes to life before your eyes!
A True Destination Experience
The Goo Goo Chocolate Co. is more than just a retail shop; it strives to provide a unique experiential destination, delighting patrons with homemade delights that larger candy brands can’t offer. The community-focused intent aims to create sweet memories that will last long after the chocolate is gone.
Sweet New Offerings Await
From milkshakes, brownies, blondies, cakes, and pies, to floats that send your tastebuds on a joyride, the offerings are as varied as they are delicious. Plus, with the exciting chocolate and whiskey pairing tastings, there’s something for everyone to savor and enjoy.
