EP 113: Mike Malley and the 90th Anniversary of Malley’s Chocolates
byLisa Sands

This year Malley's Chocolates celebrates 90 years as Cleveland's homegrown candy company and I sat down with Mike Malley, a third-generation family member to talk about this iconic and beloved brand.

Started by his grandparents, Malley's is a celebrated part of Cleveland culture. We talked about growing up in a candy-making family (so fun, right?) and review some memories about family life, the business over time, and get some sweet scoops on your favorite Malley's treats.
