Honadle’s Fine Candies

The Honadle’s name is a local tradition as rich as its chocolate.

More than 30 years ago Honadle’s Fine Candies closed the doors of its headquarters in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio. Today, the grandson of Lester Hohenadel, Bob Hohenadel, is working to bring back the tradition of the original Honadle’s Fine Candies recipes.

Honadle’s Fine Candies started in 1928 after Lester Hohenadel partnered with established chocolatier, Harry London, Jr. in Toledo, Ohio. The business suffered during the Great Depression and so did the partnership. The two parted ways and Hohenadel reestablished the company in Cuyahoga Falls.

Six months after Honadle’s returned to the market, Bob Hohenadel was introduced to Hattie Larlham CEO Dennis Allen. Hohenadel had a new product and Allen had a new store, Hattie’s Café & Gifts. The two agreed that the history and ties to the local community of both of their organizations complimented each other and from this agreement a mutually beneficial partnership was born.

Hattie’s Café & Gifts is now the exclusive retailer of Honadle’s Fine Candies in Hudson, Ohio. The Honadle’s product line is available for individual sale or as part of many of the new gift baskets at the café.

Honadle’s also produces the new Hattie’s Chocolate bar. The chocolate bar is available in milk and dark chocolate at Hattie’s Café & Gifts. Other classic Honadle’s candy selections including pecan snappers, coconut haystacks and its all-time best-seller vanilla peanut cream clusters are also available at the café to mark a holiday or special occasion or just to satisfy your own sweet tooth.
