About Us
Nestled on Historic Main Street in the heart of Bradford, Pennsylvania, Bradford Chocolate Factory carries on a sweet tradition of handcrafted confections and old-fashioned charm. Our small-batch gourmet chocolates are made with time-honored techniques, from our world-famous sponge candy to rich truffles and creamy classics. Step inside and you’ll discover our 25-foot wall of nostalgic candy favorites spanning the 1940s through the 1990s — a true walk down memory lane — along with our famous hot roasted nuts, a beloved treat dating back to the early days of Deselle’s Candy Store. Every visit is a taste of history, tradition, and hometown sweetness.
Our Story
Bradford Chocolate Factory was founded in 2019 by four friends who share a deep love for the Bradford community and its rich history. Inspired by memories of Historic Main Street — when small hometown shops lined the sidewalks and each storefront catered to a different need — we set out to bring back that welcoming, nostalgic feeling that made downtown Bradford so special.
At the heart of our story is our chocolatier, whose passion for confectionery began years ago. Using treasured family recipes and time-honored techniques passed down through generations, he crafts each batch with care, tradition, and pride. What started as a shared vision among friends has grown into a place where old memories are relived, new traditions are made, and the sweet spirit of Main Street lives on.
