Aglamesis Bro’s is consistently under the radar when it comes to Cincinnati sweets but when it comes to dark chocolate nonpareils, nothing else comes close. Made in the company’s local candy kitchen, the deeply rich dollops of dark chocolate are known to produce reactions bordering on orgasmic, according to first-time tasters. The company recently updated its image and website but those fabulous nonpareils and all of Aglamesis’s goodies are as fabulous as they ever were. aglamesis.com.
