Dundee Candy Falls for Malted Milk Balls

As Louisvillians, we have suffered through an intolerably hot summer. However, the last few days have graced us with milder temperatures and autumnal breezes. We're in that strange, hopeful limbo between Summer and Fall when it's too early for pumpkins and sweaters, but we're all itching to abandon citrus and sunglasses.

Our selection of malted milk balls are perfect for this time of year; warm pink Neapolitan and harvest colored Peanut Butter, light milk chocolate and rich espresso. Young and old, everyone loves malted milk balls, and with eight varieties to choose from, they never go out of season!

Did you know that malted milk originated in the late 1800's as a nutritional supplement for infants? It was later adopted by explorers for its high caloric value, and was used for energy in early expeditions to the Antarctic region. Eventually malt made its way to the soda shop, and then eventually blended with ice cream for the iconic American malt.


Where will malted milk balls take you? Stop in the candy shop for a handful of these little gems to take on a summer's end adventure of your own!

You have to love the way the colors mingle in a box... Like the gentle petals of summer flowers or the palette of autumnal hues in a pile of fall leaves. An everyday gathering or occasion is instantly more festive with this arrangement of colors and flavors!

All of them, waiting for you!


We hope these last official weeks of summer find you well... Challenge yourself to indulge in both sides of this season; sunbathe one last time one day, take a stroll in a sweater with a cinnamon latte the next! And if you need anything for that sweet tooth, you know where to find us.....
