Chocolate-covered pretzels are simple in theory—salty, sweet, crunchy—but when they're done right, they become something far more than the sum of their parts. At Mueller Chocolate Co., we've been handcrafting what we believe are the best chocolate covered pretzels in the country since 1980. And we have thousands of loyal customers who agree.
Built on Craft, Not Corn Syrup
Unlike mass-produced chocolate pretzels that come in plastic tubs and stale bags, our pretzels are made fresh in small batches by real chocolatiers. We start with crispy, golden-baked pretzels that are thick enough to deliver a satisfying crunch—and then we coat them generously in premium milk or dark chocolate, poured and finished by hand.
No waxy coatings. No cheap shortcuts. Just real chocolate.
"Thee BEST chocolate covered pretzels I ever had!"
"All time favorite! I've been getting these for years for my family; all the dipped flavors are great but the milk chocolate and the peanut butter/milk chocolate are the favorites. I'm never left disappointed and everyone is happy!"
Sweet & Salty Done Right
The reason people crave chocolate pretzels is the balance—sweet and salty, crunchy and smooth. But most store-bought pretzels are either too sweet or too salty, with thin, uneven coatings or chocolate that tastes like cardboard. Ours are different. Every bite hits just right—and that's by design. We've had 40+ years to perfect it.
A Philadelphia Chocolate Classic
Our shop in Philadelphia's historic Reading Terminal Market has been serving generations of locals, tourists, and food enthusiasts seeking something memorable. And for many of them, Mueller's chocolate pretzels are the thing they always come back for. We're proud to be part of this city's chocolate legacy. We don't just make candy—we make the kind of treats people remember, order again, and send as gifts.
"Best chocolate Pretzels I send my son and daughter in law milk chocolate and half peanut butter and milk chocolate pretzels for their birthdays every year. They are so excited to receive them in Louisiana. Mueller's is my go to place for gifts for all occasions."

Final Bite
Plenty of people make chocolate pretzels. But only one company has been handcrafting them in Philadelphia since 1980, with chocolate that's real, recipes that work, and a reputation that spans generations. That's not just a product. That's a legacy worth biting into.
