    Thank you to Muth's for participating with Yelp! We were so exited picking our caramel apples and candy.

    A local staple in Louisville! Opened year round you'll find your traditional favorites and seasonal treats. Some things simply taste better because they are made by Muth's. What you'll find (besides 100+ years of history): peanut brittle, dipped Oreos, modjeskas, chocolate, jelly beans, malt balls, espresso beans, gummies, and so much more. Sugar free options also available. Service is fast with associates always behind the counter to help grab candy or ring up your purchase. Small store so be patient with fellow shoppers. If you're looking for bulk candy or gift packages, they can help! Street parking. The closest spots are metered.

    Went here when I was a kid and returned in 2016. They were closed and saw me peering through the window and invited me and 3 friends in. We bought SO much stuff to take back to Maryland. Now I have moved to Louisville and cannot wait to place my Easter order for my grandchildren. I'm looking forward to a visit soon. Great service and the most amazing candy.

    We landed in Louisville early, drove downtown, and waiting for things to open found Muth's Candies. What an amazing gem! Stepping through the doors reminded me of candy shops that were old when I was young. The ambiance was practically screaming, "THIS CANDY WILL BE GOOD BUY SOME"! It's been here since 1921, and they are still hand making all of their candies. Massive selection from creamy sour popsicle shaped lollipops to caramel covered marshmallow, to classic chocolate selections. Perfect place to get souvenirs for kids, or to satisfy that sweet tooth for the kid in you!

    Love this little candy store. What might look small is mighty on flavor. I have ordered from their website, from inside the store and every time they were able to deliver on my ask. Modjeska candy is so good. I love the chocolate covered ones as well. Try the chocolate orange peels! Delicious. Try everything...their candy is just delicious!

    On a recent trip to Louisville, I stopped by to get some of these iconic candies. The modjeska was simply amazing. I had some others which I did a taste comparison with and hands down the ones from Muth's were a cut above! So good and surprisingly not cloyingly sweet. The Bourbon Balls were also outstanding. Everyone I gifted these to loved them. I picked up some brittle as well (liked the peanuts better than the peanuts and popcorn version) but were a bit too sweet for me. I got done Halloween candy for my friend's son, and a few more items for gifts. The store is unassuming and has been around for over 100 years. Charming selections and definitely worth a visit if you're in town!

    Yes, stop here and stock up. We have had chocolate bourbon balls all across the state when visiting distilleries. Without a doubt, Muth's bourbon balls, made with Very Old Barton, are by far THE BEST. The candy shop is right out of last century, nothing fancy and there are some artifacts along with the candy. We visit Louisville from Virginia every so often, and Muth's is always a stop. Visit near Easter and there may be a line, so many Easter candies to choose from. Their chocolate is a perfect gift or souvenir from Kentucky. Both milk and dark chocolate options, as well as not chocolate selections. Most of the time it is east to get a parking spot right out front in the NULU part of Louisville. It's an authentic experience.

    What a cute little place! We came here during the NULU Bock Fest and loved it. As soon as you walk in there are so many yummy options to choose from! I bought a coconut chocolate egg, sour gummies and chocolate malt balls all for only $9 which I thought was great! Service was great and everyone was willing to answer any questions that we had. I will definitely be back!

    I am in love with Muths bourbon barrels and their bourbon turtles. But don't sleep on the modjeskas! The service from this store is always top notch. Very cute and warm ambiance in the store.

    Muth's candies is a long time old fashioned candy store that services the popular Nulu neighborhood in Lousiville Kentucky. As the name suggests it is a candy shop that has a wide selection of goodies and treats. Mainly chocolate it appears. Me and the family stopped in here for the first time a week or so ago and all picked out and individual snack or treat. We walked away with some peanut cluster assorted chocolate box, snow caps, peanut brittle, a seasonal holiday chocolate tree and some other small candies. Everything we ate here was very good. Impersonal got the peanut cluster chocolates and they were top notch. Very high end tasting candy. The pricing here is honestly and surprisingly fair. Being in a popular neighborhood and being an authentic non chain candy store I was anticipating high prices. But to me they felt cheaper then some of the big chain candy stores I've been and they had more authentic and local candies. So win win. Overall cute shop with drool inducing goodies and great prices. Worth checking out for those with a sweet tooth or looking for nice tasty gifts for someone.

    Grew up next-door to some of the Muths. We always get our kids holiday candy from here. Their majeskas are the best in town.

    This candy is the best! I love the dark chocolate and pecan modjeskas eggs at Easter. The bourbon candy also is delicious

I got a delicious and refreshing raspberry sorbet, and my husband got the bourbon ball (?) ice cream, which he thoroughly enjoyed. Both employees were friendly and helpful while we made our choices. We ate them at their table outside. From the other reviews I read after we went there, they seem like a fantastic small business, so patronize them!

I haven't tried them yet, but they look and smell good, and I know they'll be excellent. All the while, I had excellent conversation with the staff there -- I didn't catch her name though. Swing by if you're in town!

    Cute little candy shop in Southern Indiana [New Albany IN]…read more Located in the historic part of downtown of New Albany this candy store specialized in handcrafted French-style macarons and chocolates. The storefront is the cutest with pink motif colors... pink awning, pink doors, pink signage. Inside is nostalgic. They have pre-packaged candy as well as candy by the pound. Mix & match chocolates from the Sugar Bar and choose from a large or small candy cup. I chose the small candy cup for $10 and had it filled with milk chocolate peanuts and milk chocolate raisins. Friendly customer service. When someone exits the shop they bid you with a "have a sweet day." Family owned and operated. Instagram: @newalbanysugarshoppe Review #3878

Look for the sidewalk signs to lead the way. And despite it's small size it is absolutely chock full of sweet goodness! I saw several candy brands that made me feel nostalgic. Macarons are a signature -- definitely check out the large case of many flavors. And it boasts a case of so many chocolatey treats. I ended up getting some chocolate dipped Oreos, sprinkled in edible glitter, for my kids, who went nuts over them. (I maybe snuck a bite too!) I love taking time to explore New Albany, to see what new-to-me shops I can discover. The New Albany Sugar Shoppe was a highlight during my recent trip across the river.
