Ultimate Confections

About Us

All of our confections are made with the finest ingredients and individually hand-dipped and available by the piece or the pound.

Inspired by an old family peanut brittle recipe and encouragement from family and friends, Lori Presser put her culinary skills to the test. While experimenting with this recipe, she put peanut butter on top of peanut brittle and dipped it in chocolate, discovering that it was a wonderful combination. Next, she tried using pecans instead of peanuts, smothered the pieces with caramel and then dipped this taste of heaven in chocolate to create turtle brittle. Wow – pure decadence! As a result, Ultimate Brittle was born in 1990.

During the early years, we dipped our chocolates in an industrial-equipped church basement kitchen. We began, and continue, to experiment with nuts, fruits, truffles and cream centers. To promote the ever-expanding line of chocolate confections, we changed our company name to Ultimate Confections.

In the fall of 1995, Ultimate Confections opened its store on 68th Street, in Wauwatosa, Wisc., just minutes from downtown Milwaukee.
And, in 2022, just before Halloween, we moved our retail shop into a bigger and brighter location. Luckily, it's only a few doors south to the corner of 68th & Wells Streets.

We invite you to visit our store! You might just have the opportunity to sample the latest chocolate treat that our chocolatiers have created. Many of our chocolate mainstays were inspired by our customers!
