Candy Shops Around Ohio - Cutler Real Estate

If you've been itching to feel like a kid in a candy store again, then we have great news! June is Candy Month. That's right — there is a whole month dedicated to the appreciation of candy. If you're in Cincinnati or Columbus, or if you're looking for homes in Northeast Ohio, then you have your choice of candy stores. Here are few top places to satisfy your sweet tooth during Candy Month.

Russell Stover Chocolates

1500 Polaris Pkwy., Columbus OH, 43240

You've probably enjoyed Russell Stover chocolates before, but have you ever visited their store in person? Candy Month gives you the perfect reason to stop by, especially if you're nearby looking at Columbus homes for sale.

Russell Stover Assorted Creams are really popular right now. They feature rich, creamy centers in flavors including vanilla cream, raspberry, and orange. If you're trying to keep your sugar intake down, try some Joy Bites. These tasty chocolate bars are free from all added sugar, colors, artificial sweeteners, and preservatives. They offer all of the chocolate indulgence without as much guilt.

Anthony-Thomas Chocolates

4727 Reed Rd., Columbus OH, 43220

Anthony-Thomas Candy Shoppe has been in business for five generations. They are a mainstay in the Columbus community, and their chocolates are incredibly delicious. For something cute, check out their selection of Ohio-themed gifts, such as their assorted chocolates in a Columbus Skyline box. 

Buckeyes are another popular choice at this shop. With creamy peanut butter filling and a sweet milk chocolate coating, they're a really satisfying treat. And if you're not in the mood for chocolate, you can always bring home a bag of sour gummies, cinnamon bears, or black licorice. 

Colonial Candy

3620 N. High St., Columbus, OH 43214

Do you want to shop for candy online, and then pick up your order when it's ready? Then Colonial Candy is the shop for you to visit during Candy Month. You can build your order on their website, and they'll let you know when it's ready for pickup.

With this online ordering option, it's easy to try a little of everything — and you totally should! The buttercream and brownie cream chocolates are exceptional and are sold in 1/8 pound increments. Then there are peanut clusters with a cream center. They're crunchy and delicious. 

Groovy Gumball Candy Company

6846 Wooster Pike, Cincinnati OH, 45227

Here's a fun place to stop if you're in the area looking at Cincinnati homes for sale. Even the name makes you think of fun, colorful candy treats. It would be impossible to step into this shop and not feel excited and upbeat.

Groovy Gumball has an ice cream shop inside, so you can easily enjoy a cone while you're there and then purchase candy to bring home. Their Woodford Reserve Bourbon Balls are a must-buy if you like this kind of thing. They're so soft and creamy inside. Of course, they also carry lots of fun, seasonal, molded chocolates.

Supreme Nut and Candy

6147 Glenway Ave., Cincinnati OH, 45211

Supreme Nut and Candy has the distinction of being the oldest candy store in Cincinnati. So, it is definitely worth a visit during Candy Month, even if you have to drive a little to get there. The decor inside is simple, so the candy can speak for itself. And it has a lot to say.

This shop offers all sorts of pre-packaged chocolates, including hard-to-find products like 100 Grand Bars and Fruit BonBons. If you're trying to be healthy, take a look at some of their nut mixes. The cinnamon almonds are the perfect cross between candy and health food. They also offer some even sweeter options, like Jordan almonds and Boston baked beans.

Fawn Candy

4271 Harrison Ave., Cincinnati OH, 45211

A post shared by Fawn Candy (@fawncandy)

Founded by the Guenther family in 1964, Fawn Candy still makes their candy the old-fashioned way in small batches. They make a bit of everything, including hard candies, gummies, and chocolates. The gummy shapes are always changing with the seasons to keep things festive.

The peanut brittle is a tried-and-true favorite at Fawn Candy. If you're in the mood for something even sweeter, try the Savannah Creams. They're a traditional pull candy that melts in your mouth, and they're perfect for early summer. 

Malley's Chocolates

27119 Chagrin Blvd., Woodmere OH, 44122

Malley's Chocolates is a family-owned store that first opened in 1935. When they opened their current location in 1994, there were hundreds of people waiting outside in anticipation!

Inside the shop, you'll find an ice cream bar where you can order your favorite customized sundae. But of course, it's Candy Month, so you can't leave without buying some candy, too. Malley's truffles, nut clusters, and assorted boxes have all won awards and will melt in your mouth. The gourmet bars are also really popular. Try the gourmet caramel bar for something truly indulgent.

All City Candy

746 Richmond Rd., Cleveland OH, 44143

If you're looking for nostalgic and retro candy, visit All City Candy in Cleveland. Their old-fashioned candy section is huge, offering options from as far back as 1900! You'll find Mallo Cups, Abba Zabbas, and more. Bring your parents along for a visit, and let them take a trip down memory lane.

All City Candy also offers a great selection of chocolates, bulk candy, and sour candy. They hand-dip chocolate-covered pretzels and cookies in the store, too. Visitors love the giant tubs of bubble gum, Jelly Bellies, and candies that take them back to childhood.

Chocolate Emporium

2169 S. Green Rd., South Euclid, OH 44121

Specializing in artisan chocolates, this shop will have your mouth watering from the moment you step in the door. They offer plenty of gluten-free, vegan, and kosher options and have been a staple in Northeast Ohio since 1993.

Visitors to Chocolate Emporium really love the almond bark, which is made with whole almonds and chocolate that's the perfect balance between crisp and melty. The bulk bourbon truffles are another must-try option, as are the cherry cordials. You can even buy some of their house-made chocolate chips to take home and bake cookies with.

It's a Sweet Month

Where will you be celebrating Candy Month in Northeast Ohio? Let us know. We're as excited as you are to try some new candy.
