Who we are

Elmer Chocolate is a family-owned confectionery company renowned for seasonal chocolates. Its roots trace to Miller Candy Company (1855) and the Elmer family, but current ownership dates to the 1960s when the Nelson family purchased the business and relocated it to Ponchatoula, Louisiana. Today, under third-generation management, Elmer produces heart-shaped boxes for Valentine's Day as well as Easter favourites like Gold Brick Eggs and Heavenly Hash. The company focuses on quality ingredients and nostalgic recipes, making it one of the largest U.S. manufacturers of boxed chocolates for holidays. Elmer operates a modern facility in Ponchatoula and sells products through retailers across the South and beyond. With a heritage spanning more than 160 years, Elmer Chocolate continues to delight consumers with classic sweets.
