Dorothy's Candies is a small candy company located in Southwestern Pennsylvania in White Oak, near McKeesport, and about 10 miles from downtown Pittsburgh.
We have been in business since 1947. At that time, our founder, Dorothy Gastel, had been making confections of all kinds for gifts. But soon, there was such a demand for her chocolates that she decided to go into business for herself. Her decision coincided with the birth of her son, Robert, who owns the business today. Dorothy reasoned that she would be able to save a little money for Robert's college fund. Today, Dorothy's Chocolates ships more than 75,000 pounds of chocolate confections throughout the continental United States and Canada. The popularity of Dorothy's Candies is simply the result of one neighbor telling another. Dorothy's Candies are pleasing to even the pickiest chocolate lovers.

Although many other chocolatiers started out making chocolate by hand, very few do so today. We believe that hand-dipped chocolate tastes much, much better. We also know that fine chocolate requires a special environment to ensure perfection and freshness when you buy it. We use no preservatives, so Dorothy's cannot sit on warm store shelves week after week. Dorothy's chocolates are made for each season -- fresh!
You'll find that our prices are about the same -- or less -- as many mass produced "fine" chocolates. So why pay a premium price for a machine shop candy when you can afford the premium hand-dipped chocolate from Dorothy's Candies.

Dorthy's candy chef, Barbara Popowitz, continues to make candy in exactly the same way that Dorothy taught her to do. Like Dorothy, Barb is a perfectionist, who wants each and every piece of chocolate to be just right.
Swiss chocolate is richer in everything that makes chocolate -- well -- chocolate. Swiss chocolate is the BEST!! It is this rich, Swiss chocolate that is the foundation for the special flavor of these fine hand-made chocolates. Dorothy's is the exclusive chocolatier to the Pittsburgh Opera and Dorothy's is featured at the Academy Awards.
You'll know why when you taste the difference yourself. Eating this fine gourmet Swiss chocolate candy will show you that death by chocolate is not a bad way to go.
