A place that sells chocolate covered pretzel rods?

I want to do chocolate covered pretzel rods as wedding favors, and have considered doing them myself, but for the sake of making sure there aren't other options in the area, does anyone know of a bakery/other type of place who does these for a reasonable price?  As in $1 or less per pretzel.  I live in Royal Oak but am willing to drive up to 30-45 min to a place who does them!

    Have you checked Doc Sweets in Clawson? It's on Rochester Rd (main) and I think between 14 and 13 mile on the west side of Main. They have EVERYTHING there.

    Rocky Mountain Chocolate Fatory at Somerset.  They are pricey though.

    I used a Groupon for cupcakes at the Chocolate Bar Cafe in Grosse Pointe and they seemed to have lots of candy/chocolate options and seemed to also specialize in wedding favors, etc. (I asked about their wedding cake prices when I was getting the cupcakes).

    There is a new store on "old 13 Mile" in Warren called "Drizzled".  I saw them there but am not familiar with the cost.

    PS: This is REALLY easy to do yourself. Melt chocolate slowly in a microwave safe bowl, dip the pretzels, lay on a baking/cooling rack or flat on waxed paper to partly dry, then roll in sprinkles and finish drying entirely.

    Also, if you want bags to put them in, go to Heinrich's on 10 Mile (north side of 10 Mile) just east of Van Dyke......they have all different sizes of baggies......they also sell chunks of real chocolate, and various different colors of nonpariels (the little balls), sprinkles, etc if you want to match your colors.

    I second this - and I can't cook worth a lick!  I make them for holidays.  You can get a special chocolate that can be microwaved (I think it's called coating chocolate or something like that.  It's at Kroger) and then you dip the pretzels in it.
