Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory, located at The Streets of Brentwood, recently donated 107 pounds of fudge to Blue Star Moms. Fudge donations were generated through its inaugural Fudge for Troops promotion campaign held in the store during the month of November. All donated fudge was placed in packages shipped overseas to our service men and women last month.

The Fudge for Troops campaign matched every pound of fudge sold in the store during the month of November. “It’s always humbling to see the high esteem that the community has for the young men and women who are serving in the armed services in harm’s way,” said Becky Hultgren, care package project manager for Blue Star Moms. “These are all of our kids. Blue Star Moms, Chapter 101 would like to thank Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory for their wonderful donations to give these men and women a taste from home. God bless you for your contributions.”

Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory owners Christine and Craig McKnight were thrilled with the success of the campaign. “We set an ambitious goal of selling 100 pounds of fudge for this campaign,” said Christine. “With the amazing support of our employees and the generosity of our customers, we managed to exceed that goal. We would like to thank everyone who made this campaign a success. We really enjoyed ourselves and are pleased we could make such a generous donation to Blue Star Moms.”

Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory is a franchise, gourmet chocolate store specializing in handmade chocolates, caramel apples, dipped strawberries, specialty gifting, weddings and community fundraisers. For more information, visit www.brentwoodchocolates.com.
