In 1911, Ethel Mars began treating her family and friends to delicious handmade brittle and candy. Her handmade candies became a signature of the Mars family.

Forrest Mars, Sr. created Ethel M.® Chocolates to honor his mother and share her family recipes and traditions with chocolate-lovers everywhere. Today, Ethel M.® Chocolates are still handcrafted in small batches and made with the finest ingredients and without preservatives.
