Gulf Coast Fudge Co, Fort Myers FL

Right around the corner from our office. Great fudge and the homemade peanut butter cups are delightful!

The place is cute and they serve Royal Scoop ice cream. I was unhappy with the price. I ordered a single scoop of ice cream for my 3 year old and it was $9.apparently the sprinkles and tiny squirt of whipped cream she asked for on top were each $1.09 extra.

My mom and I visited and we had some delicious fudge! The service was great. I am so happy to see an ice cream, candy and fudge shop downtown Fort Myers!

Staff was super friendly and funny! I’ve cream was awesome! If you’re downtown Fort Myer check it out!

The Freak Shakes are absolutely huge and delicious! I tried a s'mores and liked it very much but it was a little chocolate heavy.

All of the ice cream flavors, while limited, are very good with nice flavor profiles. I would definitely hit this place up again!

Oh my gosh! What can I say! I absolutely love it. Super tiny place but well worth spending money here!

Don't go for the milkshakes. I wish I'd gotten the name of the lady who worked in there today. Was there around 4 o'clock 9/5/22. But she does not know how to make a milkshake! It's like she put no ice cream in it Or maybe not at all! For $15 I got a milkshake that was literally like thin milk. It was nasty and absolutely a waste of money. Like white water. Only ate the candy on top and threw the rest away.

I visited this place today and ordered 1 each of the chocolate covered pretzels and it was so bad that I had to spit it out. I have NEVER had something taste so awful! This did NOT taste like chocolate! It tasted like what I imagine eating drywall would taste like! So disappointing.

Reply: this has nothing to do with taste buds! This is not my first time ordering chocolate covered pretzels around Florida. I don’t know if it was a bad batch, but they did not taste like chocolate. It had a chemical taste to it that made me worry I was eating something toxic. Sadly, I was over 100 miles away by the time I got to taste them. I’m confident that I would have been helped had I tried them while I was still there and based on your reviews I’m sure my experience won’t be the experience of others. However, please do look into that batch of pretzels. There was something not right with the chocolate on them.

Softest ice cream IVE EVER HAD. Best fudge I’ve had in a while, and very nice staff! The young lady on 7-30 around midday was so kind and helpful! Best ice cream shop!

I was visiting from Hollywood, California. I had a sweet tooth so I asked a friend if there was a good place to get fudge around here. She pointed me in the direction of Gulf Coast Fudge. I went to the shell factory location, which prompted me to take a tour because what is a shell factory? After buying a few shell necklaces and sand dollars I finally went to the fudge shop. WOW. They make the fudge right there in front of you. I had never seen that before. There was a man with a finely groomed beard and a ball cap working this huge stick as he was guiding the fudge back and forth on the slab. He was indeed an artist. Then I saw his portrait on the wall from a USA Today article. I thought I’d recognized him. After sampling a few flavors, I decided to get them all. Great price and great homemade quality. I wish they had more shops.wait it turns out THEY DO. I talked to the man with the well-oiled beard and he said this is the family’s original shop and they have one in Downtown Fort Myers next to the new luxurious Luminaire Hotel. That’s actually where I’m staying. So, fast forward to the near future, this shop is in the quaint little downtown section of Fort Myers next to Capones Pizza. It’s adorable. This time I had I had the Mint to be Freak Shake. YUMMM. Best milkshake ever. Period. Their third shop is in the adjacent town of Cape Coral at a place called Tarpon Pointe. Sounds pretty cool, maybe I’ll head out there too for some paddle boarding or kayaking. I love family owned businesses, especially during a time like this!

Cutest place in Downtown! Their treats are so delicious we eat some and then order again to take some home!

Best fresh lemonade, soft pretzels, fudge, and ice cream around! They also make beautiful hand dipped chocolate treats which make amazing gifts! Love this shop so much!

Best fudge and the sweetest owners! Since moving from Florida, I was so excited to see that they have now opened treats for shipping. I’ve sent the dark chocolate sea salt caramel gift boxes to several of my friends and family, and they absolutely love them! Will definitely be ordering more for the holidays!

This is the perfect spot and in a wonderful location. The staff are so friendly and helpful and the selection of the highest quality stuff that I've tasted in a long time. You better get here before I buy up all the fudge

Bought a pretzel which apparently had been in there awhile because when I got back I found it was burnt on the bottom and rock hard. So I called to let them know. The girl answered the phone "Hello" instead of the business name so I had to ask if this was Gulf Coast Fudge Co. "Oh yeah". I explained why I was calling and she said "Oh sorry". I said it had been in the warmer to long and she said "Yeah they have". Then she just stopped talking. So I said okay I just wanted to let you know and she said "Yeah sorry". Wow - just wow.

The soft pretzels are amazing. The peanut better fudge has fantastic taste and consistency
