Malley’s Chocolates is Chocolate Pickles for Father's Day

— June 14, 2019 — Lifestyle
Malley’s Chocolates is celebrating Father's Day with the limited-time release of chocolate-covered pickles. While the family business is known for more conventional chocolate flavors, the cocoa-covered gherkins are the treats that are currently making headlines.

Just for Father's Day, Malley’s Chocolates is selling eight-ounce boxes of chocolate-covered pickles. This means thick rounds of dill pickles coated in a layer of rich milk chocolate for a tangy, yet sweet treat. If these sound right up your dad's alley, you'll have to head to the store to pick up a box as the company explains that they are "too fragile to ship."

For dads who aren't on board with the pickle craze, Malley’s Chocolates is also offering chocolate-covered grapes, which boast the same juicy texture, but are more on the sweet side.
