Relive Candy History At Cincinnati's Jenco Brothers Candy

Nestled in the lively bohemian neighborhood of Clifton in Cincinnati, Ohio, is a sugar lover’s haven with a sweet shot of nostalgia. Jenco Brothers’ Candy offers an unparalleled selection of snacks and retro candies, perfect for gifts or an afternoon with the kids.

Candy lovers Joey and Chris Jenco, real-life brothers, opened Jenco Brothers’ Candy on Cincinnati’s West McMillan Street in 2013. After growing up visiting sweet shops wherever they could, they decided to open one of their own. Since Joey graduated from Xavier University, and Cincinnati is their grandparents’ hometown, the brothers have always had an affinity for T he Queen City, making it an ideal spot for their old-school bulk candy store.

If you prefer salty snacks to sweet treats, you might want to try the Jenco Brothers’ signature popcorn varieties. All popcorn is made in-house and popped fresh daily. You can mix and match traditional kettle corn with Jenco specialties, including Grippo’s BBQ Cheddar, white cheddar, and bacon caramel, as well as sweet-and-salty flavors such as Buckeye popcorn, cookies ‘n’ cream, birthday cake, and sea salt caramel. Choose six small bags for $20 or six medium bags for $30, or try monthly flavors at steep discounts.
