Delightful Day Visits Brandt's

This last week, the Delightful Day preschool class from St. Bede's Church in Mentor came to pay us a visit (the classes visited Wednesday and Thursday). This includes our very own Layla Stanek, great-grandaughter of the current owners of Brandt's (Dr. & Mrs. James Phillips)!

Here, Tom (one of our cooks) gives the kids a little lesson about our marble countertops. They are always nice and cool and help to cool the candy consistently after it is poured.

The kids are taking a look at the cool alligator and guitar molds!

I can't resist continuously posting pictures of the melted chocolate. I just think it looks so delicious.

Here, Tom is showing the kids how we use our molds to make impressions in the cornstarch, where we then pour the candy.

Here, Margaret shows off the gigantic marshmallow mixing bowl. The bowl is almost as tall as these 4 year olds!

Everyone excitedly waits in line to dip their very own animal crackers in melted milk chocolate.

PS-I ate about 4 of them. ;)

The Story of Brandt's Candies Inc

George and Agnes Brandt founded Brandt's Open Kitchen Candy in 1948 in Willoughby, Ohio, a small thriving community east of Cleveland.

The years have gone by, but the location has remained the same!

Customers were able to watch the candy being made in the open kitchen behind the showroom. Brandt's was known throughout the community for the high-quality chocolate produced at the site.

Brandt's Candies Inc. is still doing business the same way today as a family-owned, family-run store. We are proud to carry on the Brandt's tradition at the same location, in order to provide you with the same timeless treats you remember from your childhood.

Our candy is hand-made, following the original recipes and using only the finest ingredients. This gives our candies the fresh and delicious taste that makes our candies so unique.

We hand-dip our delicious creams, jellies, caramels, and marshmallow in fine chocolate. We also hand-dip coconut, dried fruit, and of course our mouth-watering cherry cordials.

Our candy is then displayed in the original showcases, ready for you to take home and enjoy.
