OUR STORY
Welcome to Pretzelphoria — from the rolling hills of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, birthplace of pretzels in the United States. We're a small family business that was born in our lovely country cottage and remains a flourishing family operation. After hearing time and time again from friends insisting "Don't come visit without good Pennsylvania pretzels," founders Lynn DeBlois and John Betzer created Pretzelphoria, combining the delicious pretzel snacks famous in our area with our favorite spice blends and rich chocolate for delightfully unique and mouthwatering delicious snacks. That was 14 years ago, and today we carry delicious party snacks that are sure to please any palate. Fans have followed Pretzelphoria around many of the craft and arts festivals in the Northeastern U.S., and our carefully crafted treats have been enjoyed by foodies, shared with family and friends and even gifted at holidays, special occasions and weddings.
Our focus is on quality ingredients and tasty food pairings to make delicious snacks for people who care about good food. We use freshly baked pretzels from local, family-operated artisan bakeries and blend them with our carefully crafted, homemade spice blends. Our exquisite chocolate comes from America's oldest chocolatier, Wilbur Chocolate Factory, which has been creating fine, high-quality chocolate since 1884 and is located around the bend and over the river in Lititz, Penn. We make our flavored pretzels in small batches and use no artificial ingredients, so you get delightful, decadent treats that are 100% fresh and flavorful.
Over the years, we've added to our favorite flavors to create dozens of completely unique and delicious specialties that are perfect for parties, gifts, wedding favors or just daily snacks the whole family can enjoy. We have a family of young foodies constantly urging us to experiment with new spice blends and offering suggestions for new, enticing flavors. Join us on Facebook and be part of our flavor team!
Our troops have a lot of fun with care packages packed specially by our small pretzel-loving team. We try to do our part by adding an extra scoop or two to every APO or FPO address, and senders get a 10% discount.
