Disclosure Text Block [Abstract]
Business Description and Accounting Policies [Text Block]	NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
	Nature of Operations
	The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory, Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiary, Aspen Leaf Yogurt, LLC (“ALY”) and its 39%-owned subsidiary, U-Swirl, Inc. (“U-Swirl”) of which, Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory, Inc. has financial control (collectively, the “Company”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
	The Company is an international franchisor, confectionery manufacturer and retail operator. Founded in 1981, the Company is headquartered in Durango, Colorado and manufactures an extensive line of premium chocolate candies and other confectionery products. U-Swirl franchises and operates soft-serve frozen yogurt stores. The Company also sells its candy in selected locations outside of its system of retail stores and license the use of its brand with certain consumer products.
	Effective March 1, 2015, the Company was reorganized to create a holding company structure. The operating subsidiary with the same name , Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory, Inc., a Colorado corporation (“RMCF”), which was previously the public company, became a wholly-owned subsidiary of a newly formed entity, Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Newco”), and all of the outstanding shares of common stock of RMCF, par value $0.03 per share, was exchanged on a one-for-one basis for shares of common stock, par value $0.001, of Newco. The new holding company began trading on March 2, 2015 on the NASDAQ Global Market under the symbol “RMCF”, which was the same symbol used by RMCF prior to the holding company reorganization.
	In January 2013, through the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, including Aspen Leaf Yogurt, LLC (“ALY”), the Company entered into two agreements to sell all of the assets of its ALY frozen yogurt stores, along with its interest in the self-serve frozen yogurt franchises and retail units branded as “Yogurtini” which the Company also acquired in January 2013, to U-Swirl, a publicly traded company (OTCQB: SWRL), in exchange for a 60% controlling equity interest in U-Swirl. Upon completion of these transactions, the Company ceased to directly operate any Company-owned ALY locations or sell and support frozen yogurt franchise locations, which is now being supported by U-Swirl. As of February 28, 2015, the Company held a 39% interest in U-Swirl. Additionally, the Company has the right to acquire approximately 26,271,000 shares of common stock of U-Swirl through the conversion of convertible debt owed by U-Swirl to the Company. If the Company exercised this conversion right, the Company believes it would hold approximately 72% of U-Swirl’s common stock. The U-Swirl Board of Directors is composed solely of Board members also serving the Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory, Inc. Board of Directors.
	In fiscal year (“FY”) 2014, U-Swirl acquired the franchise rights of frozen yogurt stores branded as “Cherryberry”, “Yogli Mogli” and “Fuzzy Peach” (see Note 18), and U-Swirl operates self-serve frozen yogurt cafes under the names “U-Swirl,” “Yogurtini,” “CherryBerry,” “Josie’s Frozen Yogurt,” “Yogli Mogli Frozen Yogurt,” “Fuzzy Peach Frozen Yogurt,” and “Aspen Leaf Yogurt”.
	The Company’s revenues are currently derived from three principal sources: sales to franchisees and others of chocolates and other confectionery products manufactured by the Company; the collection of initial franchise fees and royalties from franchisees’ sales; and sales at Company-owned stores of chocolates, frozen yogurt, and other confectionery products. The following table summarizes the number of stores operating under the Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory brand and its subsidiaries at February 28, 2015:
		Sold, Not Yet Open		Open		Total
	Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory
	Company-owned stores		-		4		4
	Franchise stores – Domestic stores		3		196		199
	Franchise stores – Domestic kiosks		-		5		5
	International License Stores		1		72		73
	Cold Stone Creamery – co-branded		10		68		78
	U-Swirl Stores (Including all associated brands)
	Company-owned stores		-		7		7
	Company-owned stores – co-branded		-		3		3
	Franchise stores – North American stores		*		214		214
	Franchise stores – North American – co-branded		*		18		18
	International License Stores		1		6		7
	Total		15		593		608
	*U-Swirl cafés and the brands franchised by U-Swirl have historically utilized a development area sales model. The result is that many areas are under development and the rights to open cafés within the development areas have been established, but there is no assurance that any individual development area will result in a determinable number of café openings.
	Consolidation
	Management accounts for the activities of the Company and its subsidiaries, and the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. As described above, on January 14, 2013, the Company acquired a controlling interest in U-Swirl. Prior to January 14, 2013, the Company’s consolidated financial statements exclude the financial information of U-Swirl. Beginning on January 14, 2013, the results of operations, assets and liabilities of U-Swirl have been included in these consolidated financial statements.
	Cash Equivalents
	The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of six months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company classifies certain instruments with a maturity of between three and six months to be cash equivalents because these instruments allow for early termination with minimal penalty and are readily convertible to known amounts of cash. As of February 28, 2015 and February 28, 2014, the Company held a Certificate of Deposit with an original maturity date of six-months totaling $108,000 and classified this amount as a cash equivalent. The Company continually monitors its positions with, and the credit quality of, the financial institutions with which it invests. As of the balance sheet date, and periodically throughout the year, the Company has maintained balances in various operating accounts in excess of federally insured limits. This amount was approximately $6.5 million at February 28, 2015.
	Accounts and Notes Receivable
	In the normal course of business, we extend credit to customers, primarily franchisees that satisfy pre-defined credit criteria. The Company believes that it has limited concentration of credit risk primarily because its receivables are secured by the assets of the franchisees to which the Company ordinarily extends credit, including, but not limited to, their franchise rights and inventories. An allowance for doubtful accounts is determined through analysis of the aging of accounts receivable, assessments of collectability based on historical trends, and an evaluation of the impact of current and projected economic conditions. The process by which the Company performs its analysis is conducted on a customer by customer, or franchisee by franchisee, basis and takes into account, among other relevant factors, sales history, outstanding receivables, customer financial strength, as well as customer specific and geographic market factors relevant to projected performance. The Company monitors the collectability of its accounts receivable on an ongoing basis by assessing the credit worthiness of its customers and evaluating the impact of reasonably likely changes in economic conditions that may impact credit risks. Estimates with regard to the collectability of accounts receivable are reasonably likely to change in the future. At February 28, 2015, the Company has $1,060,057 of notes receivable outstanding and an allowance for doubtful accounts of $32,262 associated with these notes. The notes require monthly payments and bear interest rates ranging from 4.5% to 8%. The notes mature through July, 2019 and approximately $954,000 of notes receivable are secured by the assets financed.
	Inventories
	Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. An inventory reserve is established to reduce the cost of obsolete, damaged and excess inventories to the lower of cost or market based on actual differences. This inventory reserve is determined through analysis of items held in inventory, and, if the recorded value is higher than the market value, the Company records an expense to reduce inventory to its actual market value. The process by which the Company performs its analysis is conducted on an item by item basis and takes into account, among other relevant factors, market value, sales history and future sales potential. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method.
	Property and Equipment and Other Assets
	Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method based upon the estimated useful life of the asset, which range from five to thirty-nine years. Leasehold improvements are amortized on the straight-line method over the lives of the respective leases or the service lives of the improvements, whichever is shorter.
	The Company reviews its long-lived assets through analysis of estimated fair value, including identifiable intangible assets, whenever events or changes indicate the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. The Company’s policy is to review the recoverability of all assets, at a minimum, on an annual basis.
	Income Taxes
	We provide for income taxes pursuant to the liability method. The liability method requires recognition of deferred income taxes based on temporary differences between financial reporting and income tax bases of assets and liabilities, using current enacted income tax rates and regulations. These differences will result in taxable income or deductions in future years when the reported amount of the asset or liability is recovered or settled, respectively. Considerable judgment is required in determining when these events may occur and whether recovery of an asset, including the utilization of a net operating loss or other carryforward prior to its expiration, is more likely than not. Due to historical losses, we established a full valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets. The Company's temporary differences are listed in Note 6.
	Gift card breakage
	The Company and our franchisees sell gift cards that are redeemable for product in our stores. The Company manages the gift card program, and therefore collects all funds from the activation of gift cards and reimburses franchisees for the redemption of gift cards in their stores. A liability for unredeemed gift cards is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the balance sheets.
	There are no expiration dates on our gift cards, and we do not charge any service fees. While our franchisees continue to honor all gift cards presented for payment, we may determine the likelihood of redemption to be remote for certain cards due to long periods of inactivity. The Company is in the process of accumulating sufficient historical redemption patterns to calculate breakage estimates related to unredeemed gift cards. This breakage rate is based on a percentage of sales when the likelihood of the redemption of the gift card becomes remote. Gift card breakage will be recognized over the same performance period, and in the same proportion, that the Company’s data has demonstrated that gift cards are redeemed. As the Company is in the process of accumulating sufficient historical redemption patterns to calculate breakage estimates, the Company did not recognize gift card breakage during the year ended February 28, 2015 or 2014. Accrued gift card liability was $2,611,774 and $2,091,074 at February 28, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.
	Goodwill
	Goodwill arose from three transaction types. The first type was the result of the incorporation of the Company after its inception as a partnership. The goodwill recorded was the excess of the purchase price of the Company over the fair value of its assets. The Company has allocated this goodwill equally between its Franchising and Manufacturing operations. The second type was the purchase of various retail stores, either individually or as a group, for which the purchase price was in excess of the fair value of the assets acquired. Finally, goodwill arose from business acquisitions, where the fair value of the consideration given for acquisition exceeded the fair value of the identified assets net of liabilities.
	The Company performs a goodwill impairment test on an annual basis or more frequently when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a reporting unit more likely than not exceeds its fair value. Recoverability of goodwill is evaluated through comparison of the fair value of each of our reporting units with its carrying value. To the extent that a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds the implied fair value of its goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized. The Company performed impairment testing with no impact to its financial results for the years ended February 28, 2015 and 2014. See note 18 for additional discussion of goodwill and intangible assets.
	Franchise Rights
	Franchise rights arose from the entry into agreements to acquire substantially all of the franchise rights of Yogurtini, CherryBerry, Fuzzy Peach and Yogli Mogli (see Note 18). Franchise rights are amortized over a period of 20 years.
	Insurance and Self-Insurance Reserves
	The Company uses a combination of insurance and self-insurance plans to provide for the potential liabilities for workers’ compensation, general liability, property insurance, director and officers’ liability insurance, vehicle liability and employee health care benefits. Liabilities associated with the risks that are retained by the Company are estimated, in part, by considering historical claims experience, demographic factors, severity factors and other assumptions. While the Company believes that its assumptions are appropriate, the estimated accruals for these liabilities could be significantly affected if future occurrences and claims differ from these assumptions and historical trends.
	Business Combinations
	The Company accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method. Under the acquisition method, the purchase price of the acquisition is allocated to the underlying tangible and intangible assets acquired based on their respective fair values. Fair values are derived from various observable and unobservable inputs and assumptions. The Company utilizes third-party valuation specialists to assist in the allocation. Initial purchase price allocations are preliminary and are subject to revision within the measurement period, not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition. The costs of the business acquisitions are expensed as incurred. These costs may include fees for accounting, legal, professional consulting and valuation specialists.
	Accounting for business combinations requires our management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially at the acquisition date, including our estimates for intangible assets, contractual obligations assumed, restructuring liabilities, pre-acquisition contingencies and contingent consideration, where applicable. Although we believe the assumptions and estimates we have made have been reasonable and appropriate, they are based in part on historical experience and information obtained from the management of the acquired companies and are inherently uncertain. Moreover, unanticipated events and circumstances may occur that may affect the accuracy or validity of such assumptions, estimates or actual results.
	Sales
	Sales of products to franchisees and other customers are recognized at the time of delivery. Sales of products to franchisees and other customers are made at standard prices, without any bargain sales of equipment or supplies. Sales of products at retail stores are recognized at the time of sale.
	Rebates
	Rebates received from purveyors that supply products to our franchisees are included in franchise royalties and fees. Product rebates are recognized in the period in which they are earned. Rebates related to company-owned locations are offset against operating costs.
	Shipping Fees
	Shipping fees charged to customers by the Company’s trucking department are reported as sales. Shipping costs incurred by the Company for inventory are reported as cost of sales or inventory.
	Franchise and Royalty Fees
	Franchise fee revenue is recognized upon opening of the franchise store. In addition to the initial franchise fee, the Company also recognizes a marketing and promotion fee of one percent (1%) of franchised stores’ gross retail sales and a royalty fee based on gross retail sales. Beginning with Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory franchise store openings in the third quarter of FY 2004, the Company modified its royalty structure. Under the current structure, the Company recognizes no royalty on franchised stores’ retail sales of products purchased from the Company and recognizes a ten percent (10%) royalty on all other sales of product sold at franchise locations. For franchise stores opened prior to the third quarter of FY 2004 the Company recognizes a royalty fee of five percent (5%) of franchised stores’ gross retail sales. Royalty fees for U-Swirl cafés are based on the rate defined in the acquired contracts for the franchise rights and range from 2.5% to 6% of gross retail sales.
	In certain instances we are required to pay a portion of franchise fee revenue, or royalty fees to parties we’ve contracted with to assist in developing and growing a brand. The agreements generally include Development Agents, or commissioned brokers who are paid a portion of the initial franchise fee, a portion of the ongoing royalty fees, or both. When such agreements exist, we report franchise fee and royalty fee revenues net of the amount paid, or due, to the agent/broker.
	Use of Estimates
	In preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
	Vulnerability Due to Certain Concentrations
	Revenue from one customer of the Company’s Manufacturing segment represented approximately $5.2 million or 13% of the Company’s revenues during the year ended February 28, 2015. The Company’s future results may be adversely impacted by a change in the purchases of this customer.
	Stock-Based Compensation
	At February 28, 2015, the Company had stock-based compensation plans, which currently consists solely of the Company’s 2007 Equity Incentive plan, for employees and non-employee directors which authorized the granting of stock awards.
The Company recognized $865,240, $660,325, and $418,633 related equity-based compensation expense during the years ended February 28, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Compensation costs related to share-based compensation are generally amortized over the vesting period.
Tax benefits in excess of the compensation cost recognized for stock options are reported as financing cash flows in the accompanying Statements of Cash Flows. The excess tax benefit included in net cash provided by financing activities for the years ended February 28, 2015, 2014 and 2013 was $200,544, $68,832 and $58,377, respectively.
During FY 2015, the Company granted no restricted stock units. During FY 2014, the Company granted 280,900 restricted stock units with a grant date fair value of $3,437,950. There were no stock options granted to employees during FY 2015 or FY 2014. The restricted stock unit grants generally vest 17-20% annually over a period of five to six years. The Company recognized $740,261 of consolidated stock-based compensation expense related to these grants during FY 2015 compared with $572,948 in FY 2014. Total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense of non-vested, non-forfeited shares granted, as of February 28, 2015 was $2,467,019, which is expected to be recognized over the weighted average period of 4 years.
During FY 2015, the Company issued 4,000 fully-vested, unrestricted shares to non-employee directors compared with 4,000 fully-vested, unrestricted shares of stock to non-employee directors in FY 2014. In connection with these non-employee director stock issuances, the Company recognized $47,480 and $48,400 of stock-based compensation expense during FY 2015 and FY 2014, respectively.
Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed as net earnings divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each year. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through stock options and restricted stock units. During FY 2015, FY 2014 and FY 2013, 12,936, 12,936, and 101,661, respectively, of stock options were excluded from diluted shares as their effect was anti-dilutive.
Advertising and Promotional Expenses
The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Total advertising expense for RMCF amounted to $244,946, $250,739, and $233,731 for the fiscal years ended February 28, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Total advertising expense for U-Swirl and its brands amounted to $399,414, $134,192, and $192,088 for the fiscal years ended February 28, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, payables, and notes receivable. The fair value of all instruments approximates the carrying value, because of the relatively short maturity of these instruments.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs ("ASU 2015-03"). ASU 2015-03 requires that debt issuance costs be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of debt liability, consistent with debt discounts or premiums. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs would not be affected by the amendments in ASU 2015-03. ASU 2015-03 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2015-03 may have on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
In May 2014, FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605),” and requires entities to recognize revenue in a way that depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, and is to be applied retrospectively, with early application not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the new standard.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern.” This guidance requires management to evaluate whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern. If such conditions or events exist, disclosures are required that enable users of the financial statements to understand the nature of the conditions or events, management's evaluation of the circumstances and management's plans to mitigate the conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern. We will be required to perform an annual assessment of our ability to continue as a going concern when this standard becomes effective for us in the first quarter of our fiscal year ended February 28, 2017. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to impact our financial position, results, operations or cash flows.

Debt Disclosure [Text Block]	NOTE 4 - LINE OF CREDIT AND LONG-TERM DEBT
	Line of Credit
	At February 28, 2015, the Company had a $5 million line of credit from Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s assets with the exception of the Company’s retail store assets. Draws may be made under the line at 75% of eligible accounts receivable plus 50% of eligible inventories. Interest on borrowings is at prime (3.25% at February 28, 2015). At February 28, 2015, $5 million was available for borrowings under the line of credit, subject to borrowing base limitations. Terms of the line require that the line be rested (that is, that there be no outstanding balance) for a period of 30 consecutive days during the term of the loan. Additionally, the line of credit is subject to various financial ratio and leverage covenants. At February 28, 2015, the Company was in compliance with all such covenants. The credit line is subject to renewal in July 2015 and we believe it is likely to be renewed on terms similar to current terms.
	Effective January 16, 2014, the Company entered into a business loan agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (the “Wells Fargo Loan Agreement”) for a $7.0 million line of credit to be used to loan money to U-Swirl to fund the purchase price of business acquisitions by U-Swirl (the “Wells Fargo Loan”). The Company made its first draw of approximately $6.4 million on the Wells Fargo Loan on January 16, 2014 and the first draw was the amount outstanding at February 28, 2014. Interest on the Wells Fargo Loan is at a fixed rate of 3.75% and the maturity date is January 15, 2020. The Wells Fargo Loan may be prepaid without penalty at any time by the Company. The Wells Fargo Loan is collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s assets, including the loan agreement between RMCF and U-Swirl to finance U-Swirl’s acquisitions. Additionally, the Wells Fargo Loan is subject to various financial ratio and leverage covenants. The Wells Fargo Loan Agreement also contains customary representations and warranties, covenants and acceleration provisions in the event of a default by the Company.
	Long-term debt consists of the following at February 28:
		2015		2014
	Note payable in monthly installments of principal and interest at 3.75% per annum through December 2019 collateralized by substantially all business assets.	$	6,292,367	$	6,400,000

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Text Block]	NOTE 5 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
	Operating Leases
	The Company conducts its retail operations in facilities leased under five to ten-year non-cancelable operating leases. Certain leases contain renewal options for between five and ten additional years at increased monthly rentals. The majority of the leases provide for contingent rentals based on sales in excess of predetermined base levels.
	The following is a schedule by year of future minimum rental payments required under such leases for the years ending February 28 or 29:
	2016	$	995,000
	2017		753,000
	2018		677,000
	2019		617,000
	2020		293,000
	Thereafter		56,000
	Total	$	3,391,000
	We act as primary lessee of some franchised store premises, which we then sublease to franchisees, but the majority of existing locations are leased by the franchisee directly. Our current policy is not to act as primary lessee on any further franchised locations, except in rare instances. At March 31, 2015, we were the primary lessee at 10 of our 433 franchised stores.
	In some instances the Company has leased space for its Company-owned locations that are now occupied by franchisees, or majority owned subsidiaries. When the Company-owned location was sold or transferred, the store was subleased to the franchisee who is responsible for the monthly rent and other obligations under the lease. The Company's liability as primary lessee on sublet franchise outlets, all of which is offset by sublease rentals, is as follows for the years ending February 28 or 29:
	2016	$	479,000
	2017		211,000
	2018		79,000
	Total	$	769,000
	The following is a schedule of lease expense for all retail operating leases for the three years ended February 28:
		2015			2014			2013
	Minimum rentals	$	1,282,363		$	1,658,710		$	862,866
	Less sublease rentals		(468,000	)		(686,000	)		(157,000	)
	Contingent rentals		22,200			22,626			20,399
		$	836,563		$	995,336		$	726,265
	In FY 2013, the Company renewed an operating lease for warehouse space in the immediate vicinity of its manufacturing operation. The following is a schedule, by year, of future minimum rental payments required under such lease for the years ending February 28 or 29:
	2016	$	116,000
	2017		121,000
	2018		30,000
	Total	$	267,000
	The Company also leases trucking equipment under operating leases. The following is a schedule by year of future minimum rental payments required under such leases for the years ending February 28 or 29:
	2016	$	172,100
	2017		172,100
	2018		123,600
	2019		22,200
	Total	$	490,000
	The following is a schedule of lease expense for trucking equipment operating leases for the three years ended February 28:
		2015			2014			2013
			185,703			199,894			201,081
	Purchase contracts
	The Company frequently enters into purchase contracts of between six to eighteen months for chocolate and certain nuts. These contracts permit the Company to purchase the specified commodity at a fixed price on an as-needed basis during the term of the contract. Because prices for these products may fluctuate, the Company may benefit if prices rise during the terms of these contracts, but it may be required to pay above-market prices if prices fall and it is unable to renegotiate the terms of the contract. Currently the Company has contracted for approximately $798,000 of raw materials under such agreements.
	Contingencies
	The Company is party to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Management believes that the resolution of these matters will not have a significant adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
	U-Swirl, as part of the business acquisition of CherryBerry (see Note 18), agreed to issue 4,000,000 shares of U-Swirl common stock as a component of the consideration paid for the business assets. The CherryBerry selling parties entered into a one-year lock-up agreement with respect to the 4,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “CB Shares”) payable at the closing of the CherryBerry Acquisition. The CB Shares payable gave the selling parties voting rights and rights to dividends as of the acquisition date and were therefore included in the calculation of net loss per common share. The CB Shares were issued to the selling parties in February 2015. Following expiration of the lock-up period, if any of the CherryBerry selling parties desire to sell their CB Shares, they must first offer such shares to the Company and then to RMCF, at a price equal to the average of the market prices at the time of sale. If the proceeds from the sale of any of the CB Shares is less than $0.50 per share and the CherryBerry selling parties comply with other terms of the agreement, the Company has agreed to pay a shortfall payment.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block]	NOTE 6 - INCOME TAXES
	Income tax expense is comprised of the following for the years ended February 28:
		2015			2014			2013
	Current
	Federal	$	1,846,365		$	1,668,259		$	2,090,996

	Total	$	2,037,695		$	2,154,660		$	1,233,460
	A reconciliation of the statutory federal income tax rate and the effective rate as a percentage of pretax income is as follows for the years ended February 28:
		2015			2014			2013
	Statutory rate		34	%		34	%		34	%
	State income taxes, net of federal benefit		2.8	%		3.1	%		4.8	%
	Domestic production deduction		(1.6%	)		(2.4%	)		(3.2%	)
	Other		0.1	%		0.1	%		1.5	%
	Acquisition related expenses		-			-			6.4	%
	U-Swirl loss carryforward recognized		(3.0%	)		-			-
	Valuation allowance, U-Swirl Consolidated loss		3	%		5.9	%		4.2	%
	Effective Rate		35.3	%		40.7	%		47.7	%
	The decrease in the effective tax rate for the year ended February 28, 2015, compared to the prior year, is primarily due to the tax consequences of a controlling interest in U-Swirl, and the associated increase in the effective rate for the years ended February 28, 2014 and 2013. In FY 2014 we did not realize a tax benefit from the U-Swirl taxable loss causing our effective rate to increase for the year. During FY 2015 the taxable loss at U-Swirl was lower, resulting in a decrease to our effective rate. The acquisition of our interest in U-Swirl resulted in non-deductible acquisition related expenses of approximately $268,000 for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2013. The Company also recognized a gain of $222,000 during the year ended February 28, 2013 for purposes of income tax reporting, the result of the transfer of ALY franchise rights to U-Swirl. U-Swirl and RMCF will continue to file separate income tax returns for each entity. U-Swirl has a history of net losses and does not expect to realize the tax benefit of those losses. The consolidation of U-Swirl net loss into the results of RMCF did not reduce the taxable income for RMCF in the current or prior years.
	The components of deferred income taxes at February 28 are as follows:
	Deferred Tax Assets	2015			2014
	Allowance for doubtful accounts and notes	$	248,067		$	219,108
	Inventories		73,133			75,505
	Accrued compensation		216,469			210,290
	Loss provisions and deferred income		129,446			143,877
	Self-insurance accrual		21,543			27,240
	Amortization, design costs		36,688			54,312
	Restructuring charges		148,494			1,850
	U-Swirl accumulated net loss		349,010			689,590
	Valuation allowance, U-Swirl accumulated net loss		(349,010	)		(689,590	)
	Net deferred tax assets		873,840			732,182
	Deferred Tax Liabilities
	Depreciation and amortization		(1,234,110	)		(1,133,467	)
	Prepaid expenses		(96,280	)		(110,333	)
	Net deferred tax liability	$	(1,330,390	)	$	(1,243,800	)
	Current deferred tax assets	$	572,957		$	538,871
	Non-current deferred tax liabilities		(1,029,507	)		(1,050,489	)
	Net deferred tax liability	$	(456,550	)	$	(511,618	)
	The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal and various state taxing jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal and state tax examinations in its major tax jurisdictions for periods before FY 2010.
	Realization of the Company's deferred tax assets is dependent upon the Company generating sufficient taxable income, in the appropriate tax jurisdictions, in future years to obtain benefit from the reversal of net deductible temporary differences. The amount of deferred tax assets considered realizable is subject to adjustment in future periods if estimates of future taxable income are changed. Management believes that it is more likely than not that RMCF will realize the benefits of its deferred tax assets as of February 28, 2015.
	The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes by recognizing the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The Company measures the tax benefits recognized in the consolidated financial statements from such a position based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate resolution. The application of income tax law is inherently complex. As such, the Company is required to make judgments regarding income tax exposures. Interpretations of and guidance surrounding income tax law and regulations change over time and may result in changes to the Company's judgments which can materially affect amounts recognized in the balance sheets and statements of operations. The result of the assessment of the Company's tax positions did not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements for the years ended February 28, 2015 or 2014. The Company does not have any significant unrecognized tax benefits and does not anticipate a significant increase or decrease in unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months. Amounts are recognized for income tax related interest and penalties as a component of general and administrative expense in the statement of income and are immaterial for years ended February 28, 2015 and 2014.
	As of February 28, 2015, U-Swirl was not consolidated with us for purposes of filing federal income tax. U-Swirl files a separate federal tax return and has its own federal loss carry forward. As of February 28, 2015, U-Swirl had recorded a full valuation allowance related to the realization of its deferred income tax assets.
	In accordance with Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, deductibility of U-Swirl’s U.S. net operating loss carryovers may be subject to annual limitation in the event of a change in control. We have performed a preliminary evaluation as to whether a change in control has taken place, and have concluded that there was a change of control with respect to the net operating losses of U-Swirl when the Company acquired its controlling ownership interest in January 2013.
	We estimate that the potential future tax deductions of U-Swirl accumulated net operating losses, limited by section 382, to be approximately $970,000 with a resulting deferred tax asset of approximately $350,000. We have recorded a valuation allowance for this amount to reflect the likelihood of realization of this deferred tax asset.

Note 18 - Acquisition of Cherryberry, Yogli Mogli, and Fuzzy Peach	12 Months Ended

Business Combinations [Abstract]
Business Combination Disclosure [Text Block]	NOTE 18– ACQUISITION OF CHERRYBERRY, YOGLI MOGLI AND FUZZY PEACH
	On January 17, 2014, U-Swirl entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with CherryBerry and its affiliates (the “Cherryberry Purchase Agreement”), which was the franchisor of self-serve frozen yogurt cafés branded as “CherryBerry.” Pursuant to the CherryBerry Purchase Agreement, U-Swirl purchased certain assets of CherryBerry used in its business of franchising frozen yogurt cafés, including all of its franchise rights and one company-owned café. The assets were acquired for approximately $4.25 million in cash and 4 million shares of U-Swirl common stock.
	On January 17, 2014, U-Swirl also entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Yogli Mogli LLC and its affiliates (the “Yogli Mogli Purchase Agreement”), which was the franchisor of self-serve frozen yogurt cafés branded as “Yogli Mogli.” Pursuant to the Yogli Mogli Purchase Agreement, U-Swirl purchased certain assets of Yogli Mogli used in its business of franchising frozen yogurt cafés, including all of its franchise rights and four company-owned cafés. The assets were acquired for approximately $2.15 million in cash and $200,000 in shares of U-Swirl common stock. During the year ended February 28, 2015, U-Swirl assumed a net liability of $149,529 for an un-funded gift card liability related to Yogli-Mogli franchise operations. The Company has withheld the issuance of $200,000 in shares of U-Swirl common stock as a result of its realization of this unfunded liability. Management believes that is it unlikely that the common stock issuance contemplated by the Yogli Mogli Purchase Agreement is issued, or that the gift card liability is funded. These facts have caused Management to revise the valuation of the Yogli Mogli purchase as reflected within this note to the consolidated financial statements.
	On February 20, 2014, U-Swirl entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement to acquire the business assets of Fuzzy Peach Franchising, LLC. The acquisition of all intellectual property and worldwide franchise and license rights includes the rights associated with 17 Fuzzy Peach Frozen Yogurt stores. U-Swirl purchased the Fuzzy Peach Franchising, LLC assets for $481,000 in cash paid at the time of closing, plus an earn-out that could increase the purchase price by up to another $349,000 based upon royalty income generated by Fuzzy Peach stores over the next twelve months. During the year ended February 28, 2015, we recorded a liability of $146,257 associated with this earn-out.
	A preliminary purchase price allocation was completed at February 28, 2014 and a final measurement period was completed during the quarter ended February 28, 2015 when the fair value of consideration paid and contingent consideration were finalized. The foregoing resulted in a retrospective reallocation of these values reported at February 28, 2014. This reallocation did not result in any changes to operating results for FY 2014 because the adjustment to amortization resulting from the retrospective reallocation was immaterial. The final consideration value was allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed and a portion of the total purchase consideration was allocated to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values at the acquisition date. Prior year amounts were revised to reflect these changes as of the date of the acquisition, resulting in reductions to Trademarks, Franchise rights, Non-competition agreements and Goodwill as of February 28, 2014.
	The following tables summarize the adjustments that were made to the preliminary purchase price allocation for the Yogli Mogli and CherryBerry acquisitions.
	Yogli Mogli	Preliminary		Adjustment			Final
	Café Store Assets	$	1,003,000	$	-		$	1,003,000

	Non-compete agreements		23,000		(2,000	)		21,000
	Goodwill		3,006,000		(1,182,000	)		1,824,000
		$	7,310,000	$	(2,100,000	)	$	5,210,000
	The purchase price allocation, including the fair value consideration paid, contingent consideration, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and allocated a portion of the total purchase consideration to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values at the acquisition date. The excess of the total purchase consideration over the aggregate estimated fair values was recorded as goodwill. Goodwill represents the synergies that the Company believes will arise from the acquisition transactions. All of the goodwill generated in this acquisition is deductible for tax purposes. The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase price to the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed:
		CherryBerry		Yogli Mogli			Fuzzy Peach		Total
	Assets acquired – Transaction date	$	5,210,000	$	2,357,529		$	481,497	$	8,049,026
	Assets acquired – Earn out		-		-			146,257		146,257
	Lease liabilities assumed		-		(58,000	)		-		(58,000	)
	Gift card liabilities assumed		-		(149,529	)		-		(149,529	)
	Total purchase price	$	5,210,000	$	2,150,000		$	627,754	$	7,987,754
	Included in the purchase price allocation is an amount related to the fair value of the U-Swirl common stock issued as consideration for the acquisitions. The fair value of the securities was based on Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820-10-35-2, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures as “the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.”
	The assets acquired were made up of the following during the year ended February 28, 2015:
		CherryBerry		Yogli Mogli			Fuzzy Peach		Total
	Café store assets	$	238,000	$	1,003,000		$	-	$	1,241,000
	Café store goodwill		23,000		-			-		23,000
	Trademarks		287,000		142,000			-		429,000
	Franchise rights		2,817,000		1,123,000			627,754		4,567,754
	Non-competition agreements		21,000		6,000			-		27,000
	Goodwill		1,824,000		83,529			-		1,907,529
	Total assets acquired	$	5,210,000	$	2,357,529		$	627,754	$	8,195,283
	The consideration for the purchase price was made up the following assets during the year ended February 28, 2015:
		CherryBerry		Yogli Mogli			Fuzzy Peach		Total
	Common stock – U-Swirl	$	960,000	$	-		$	-	$	960,000
	Cash		4,250,000		2,150,000			627,754		7,027,754
	Total consideration paid	$	5,210,000	$	2,150,000		$	627,754	$	7,987,754
	As a part of these acquisitions, the Company recognized $124,551 and $786,475 as acquisition related costs in the line item “Restructuring and acquisition related charges” on the Statements of Income for the years ended February 28, 2015 and February 28, 2014, respectively. The fair value of U-Swirl common stock was $0.24 and was determined by fair value measurement as defined by ASC 820-10-35-2. Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure is “the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.” The valuation was performed on a minority, marketable basis. The Company performed this valuation because it did not believe that the quoted market price was indicative of fair value. Primarily the Company believed that the quoted market price did not accurately represent the present value of future cash flows associated with the acquisitions, or the dilutive effect of stock and convertible debt issued to fund these acquisitions.

Accounting Policies, by Policy (Policies)	12 Months Ended
	Feb. 28, 2015
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Consolidation
	Management accounts for the activities of the Company and its subsidiaries, and the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. As described above, on January 14, 2013, the Company acquired a controlling interest in U-Swirl. Prior to January 14, 2013, the Company’s consolidated financial statements exclude the financial information of U-Swirl. Beginning on January 14, 2013, the results of operations, assets and liabilities of U-Swirl have been included in these consolidated financial statements.
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Cash Equivalents
	The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of six months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company classifies certain instruments with a maturity of between three and six months to be cash equivalents because these instruments allow for early termination with minimal penalty and are readily convertible to known amounts of cash. As of February 28, 2015 and February 28, 2014, the Company held a Certificate of Deposit with an original maturity date of six-months totaling $108,000 and classified this amount as a cash equivalent. The Company continually monitors its positions with, and the credit quality of, the financial institutions with which it invests. As of the balance sheet date, and periodically throughout the year, the Company has maintained balances in various operating accounts in excess of federally insured limits. This amount was approximately $6.5 million at February 28, 2015.
Receivables, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Accounts and Notes Receivable
	In the normal course of business, we extend credit to customers, primarily franchisees that satisfy pre-defined credit criteria. The Company believes that it has limited concentration of credit risk primarily because its receivables are secured by the assets of the franchisees to which the Company ordinarily extends credit, including, but not limited to, their franchise rights and inventories. An allowance for doubtful accounts is determined through analysis of the aging of accounts receivable, assessments of collectability based on historical trends, and an evaluation of the impact of current and projected economic conditions. The process by which the Company performs its analysis is conducted on a customer by customer, or franchisee by franchisee, basis and takes into account, among other relevant factors, sales history, outstanding receivables, customer financial strength, as well as customer specific and geographic market factors relevant to projected performance. The Company monitors the collectability of its accounts receivable on an ongoing basis by assessing the credit worthiness of its customers and evaluating the impact of reasonably likely changes in economic conditions that may impact credit risks. Estimates with regard to the collectability of accounts receivable are reasonably likely to change in the future. At February 28, 2015, the Company has $1,060,057 of notes receivable outstanding and an allowance for doubtful accounts of $32,262 associated with these notes. The notes require monthly payments and bear interest rates ranging from 4.5% to 8%. The notes mature through July, 2019 and approximately $954,000 of notes receivable are secured by the assets financed.
Inventory, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Inventories
	Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. An inventory reserve is established to reduce the cost of obsolete, damaged and excess inventories to the lower of cost or market based on actual differences. This inventory reserve is determined through analysis of items held in inventory, and, if the recorded value is higher than the market value, the Company records an expense to reduce inventory to its actual market value. The process by which the Company performs its analysis is conducted on an item by item basis and takes into account, among other relevant factors, market value, sales history and future sales potential. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method.
Property, Plant and Equipment, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Property and Equipment and Other Assets
	Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method based upon the estimated useful life of the asset, which range from five to thirty-nine years. Leasehold improvements are amortized on the straight-line method over the lives of the respective leases or the service lives of the improvements, whichever is shorter.
	The Company reviews its long-lived assets through analysis of estimated fair value, including identifiable intangible assets, whenever events or changes indicate the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. The Company’s policy is to review the recoverability of all assets, at a minimum, on an annual basis.
Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Income Taxes
	We provide for income taxes pursuant to the liability method. The liability method requires recognition of deferred income taxes based on temporary differences between financial reporting and income tax bases of assets and liabilities, using current enacted income tax rates and regulations. These differences will result in taxable income or deductions in future years when the reported amount of the asset or liability is recovered or settled, respectively. Considerable judgment is required in determining when these events may occur and whether recovery of an asset, including the utilization of a net operating loss or other carryforward prior to its expiration, is more likely than not. Due to historical losses, we established a full valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets. The Company's temporary differences are listed in Note 6.
Revenue Recognition, Gift Cards [Policy Text Block]	Gift card breakage
	The Company and our franchisees sell gift cards that are redeemable for product in our stores. The Company manages the gift card program, and therefore collects all funds from the activation of gift cards and reimburses franchisees for the redemption of gift cards in their stores. A liability for unredeemed gift cards is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the balance sheets.
	There are no expiration dates on our gift cards, and we do not charge any service fees. While our franchisees continue to honor all gift cards presented for payment, we may determine the likelihood of redemption to be remote for certain cards due to long periods of inactivity. The Company is in the process of accumulating sufficient historical redemption patterns to calculate breakage estimates related to unredeemed gift cards. This breakage rate is based on a percentage of sales when the likelihood of the redemption of the gift card becomes remote. Gift card breakage will be recognized over the same performance period, and in the same proportion, that the Company’s data has demonstrated that gift cards are redeemed. As the Company is in the process of accumulating sufficient historical redemption patterns to calculate breakage estimates, the Company did not recognize gift card breakage during the year ended February 28, 2015 or 2014. Accrued gift card liability was $2,611,774 and $2,091,074 at February 28, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Goodwill, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Goodwill
	Goodwill arose from three transaction types. The first type was the result of the incorporation of the Company after its inception as a partnership. The goodwill recorded was the excess of the purchase price of the Company over the fair value of its assets. The Company has allocated this goodwill equally between its Franchising and Manufacturing operations. The second type was the purchase of various retail stores, either individually or as a group, for which the purchase price was in excess of the fair value of the assets acquired. Finally, goodwill arose from business acquisitions, where the fair value of the consideration given for acquisition exceeded the fair value of the identified assets net of liabilities.
	The Company performs a goodwill impairment test on an annual basis or more frequently when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a reporting unit more likely than not exceeds its fair value. Recoverability of goodwill is evaluated through comparison of the fair value of each of our reporting units with its carrying value. To the extent that a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds the implied fair value of its goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized. The Company performed impairment testing with no impact to its financial results for the years ended February 28, 2015 and 2014. See note 18 for additional discussion of goodwill and intangible assets.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Franchise Rights
	Franchise rights arose from the entry into agreements to acquire substantially all of the franchise rights of Yogurtini, CherryBerry, Fuzzy Peach and Yogli Mogli (see Note 18). Franchise rights are amortized over a period of 20 years.
Insurance and Self-Insurance Reserves [Policy Text Block]	Insurance and Self-Insurance Reserves
	The Company uses a combination of insurance and self-insurance plans to provide for the potential liabilities for workers’ compensation, general liability, property insurance, director and officers’ liability insurance, vehicle liability and employee health care benefits. Liabilities associated with the risks that are retained by the Company are estimated, in part, by considering historical claims experience, demographic factors, severity factors and other assumptions. While the Company believes that its assumptions are appropriate, the estimated accruals for these liabilities could be significantly affected if future occurrences and claims differ from these assumptions and historical trends.
Business Combinations Policy [Policy Text Block]	Business Combinations
	The Company accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method. Under the acquisition method, the purchase price of the acquisition is allocated to the underlying tangible and intangible assets acquired based on their respective fair values. Fair values are derived from various observable and unobservable inputs and assumptions. The Company utilizes third-party valuation specialists to assist in the allocation. Initial purchase price allocations are preliminary and are subject to revision within the measurement period, not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition. The costs of the business acquisitions are expensed as incurred. These costs may include fees for accounting, legal, professional consulting and valuation specialists.
	Accounting for business combinations requires our management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially at the acquisition date, including our estimates for intangible assets, contractual obligations assumed, restructuring liabilities, pre-acquisition contingencies and contingent consideration, where applicable. Although we believe the assumptions and estimates we have made have been reasonable and appropriate, they are based in part on historical experience and information obtained from the management of the acquired companies and are inherently uncertain. Moreover, unanticipated events and circumstances may occur that may affect the accuracy or validity of such assumptions, estimates or actual results.
Revenue Recognition, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Sales
	Sales of products to franchisees and other customers are recognized at the time of delivery. Sales of products to franchisees and other customers are made at standard prices, without any bargain sales of equipment or supplies. Sales of products at retail stores are recognized at the time of sale.
	Rebates
	Rebates received from purveyors that supply products to our franchisees are included in franchise royalties and fees. Product rebates are recognized in the period in which they are earned. Rebates related to company-owned locations are offset against operating costs.
	Shipping Fees
	Shipping fees charged to customers by the Company’s trucking department are reported as sales. Shipping costs incurred by the Company for inventory are reported as cost of sales or inventory.
	Franchise and Royalty Fees
	Franchise fee revenue is recognized upon opening of the franchise store. In addition to the initial franchise fee, the Company also recognizes a marketing and promotion fee of one percent (1%) of franchised stores’ gross retail sales and a royalty fee based on gross retail sales. Beginning with Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory franchise store openings in the third quarter of FY 2004, the Company modified its royalty structure. Under the current structure, the Company recognizes no royalty on franchised stores’ retail sales of products purchased from the Company and recognizes a ten percent (10%) royalty on all other sales of product sold at franchise locations. For franchise stores opened prior to the third quarter of FY 2004 the Company recognizes a royalty fee of five percent (5%) of franchised stores’ gross retail sales. Royalty fees for U-Swirl cafés are based on the rate defined in the acquired contracts for the franchise rights and range from 2.5% to 6% of gross retail sales.
	In certain instances we are required to pay a portion of franchise fee revenue, or royalty fees to parties we’ve contracted with to assist in developing and growing a brand. The agreements generally include Development Agents, or commissioned brokers who are paid a portion of the initial franchise fee, a portion of the ongoing royalty fees, or both. When such agreements exist, we report franchise fee and royalty fee revenues net of the amount paid, or due, to the agent/broker.
Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Use of Estimates
	In preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates
Concentration Risk, Credit Risk, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Vulnerability Due to Certain Concentrations
	Revenue from one customer of the Company’s Manufacturing segment represented approximately $5.2 million or 13% of the Company’s revenues during the year ended February 28, 2015. The Company’s future results may be adversely impacted by a change in the purchases of this customer.
Share-based Compensation, Option and Incentive Plans Policy [Policy Text Block]	Stock-Based Compensation
	At February 28, 2015, the Company had stock-based compensation plans, which currently consists solely of the Company’s 2007 Equity Incentive plan, for employees and non-employee directors which authorized the granting of stock awards.
	The Company recognized $865,240, $660,325, and $418,633 related equity-based compensation expense during the years ended February 28, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Compensation costs related to share-based compensation are generally amortized over the vesting period.
	Tax benefits in excess of the compensation cost recognized for stock options are reported as financing cash flows in the accompanying Statements of Cash Flows. The excess tax benefit included in net cash provided by financing activities for the years ended February 28, 2015, 2014 and 2013 was $200,544, $68,832 and $58,377, respectively.
	During FY 2015, the Company granted no restricted stock units. During FY 2014, the Company granted 280,900 restricted stock units with a grant date fair value of $3,437,950. There were no stock options granted to employees during FY 2015 or FY 2014. The restricted stock unit grants generally vest 17-20% annually over a period of five to six years. The Company recognized $740,261 of consolidated stock-based compensation expense related to these grants during FY 2015 compared with $572,948 in FY 2014. Total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense of non-vested, non-forfeited shares granted, as of February 28, 2015 was $2,467,019, which is expected to be recognized over the weighted average period of 4 years.
	During FY 2015, the Company issued 4,000 fully-vested, unrestricted shares to non-employee directors compared with 4,000 fully-vested, unrestricted shares of stock to non-employee directors in FY 2014. In connection with these non-employee director stock issuances, the Company recognized $47,480 and $48,400 of stock-based compensation expense during FY 2015 and FY 2014, respectively.
Earnings Per Share, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Earnings per Share
	Basic earnings per share is computed as net earnings divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each year. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through stock options and restricted stock units. During FY 2015, FY 2014 and FY 2013, 12,936, 12,936, and 101,661, respectively, of stock options were excluded from diluted shares as their effect was anti-dilutive.
Advertising Costs, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Advertising and Promotional Expenses
	The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Total advertising expense for RMCF amounted to $244,946, $250,739, and $233,731 for the fiscal years ended February 28, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Total advertising expense for U-Swirl and its brands amounted to $399,414, $134,192, and $192,088 for the fiscal years ended February 28, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Fair Value of Financial Instruments
	The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, payables, and notes receivable. The fair value of all instruments approximates the carrying value, because of the relatively short maturity of these instruments.
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Recent Accounting Pronouncements
	In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs ("ASU 2015-03"). ASU 2015-03 requires that debt issuance costs be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of debt liability, consistent with debt discounts or premiums. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs would not be affected by the amendments in ASU 2015-03. ASU 2015-03 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2015-03 may have on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
	In May 2014, FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605),” and requires entities to recognize revenue in a way that depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, and is to be applied retrospectively, with early application not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the new standard.
	In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern.” This guidance requires management to evaluate whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern. If such conditions or events exist, disclosures are required that enable users of the financial statements to understand the nature of the conditions or events, management's evaluation of the circumstances and management's plans to mitigate the conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern. We will be required to perform an annual assessment of our ability to continue as a going concern when this standard becomes effective for us in the first quarter of our fiscal year ended February 28, 2017. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to impact our financial position, results, operations or cash flows.
Reclassification, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Reclassifications
	Certain amounts previously presented for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. The reclassifications had no effect on net income, working capital or equity previously reported.
