When Antonio Caruso purchased the Chicago Candy Kitchen in 1922, he and his wife, Emilia, began a tradition that would span several generations in The Grand Old City. Over the course of the next 45 years, the restaurant was managed with the help of their children - Josephine, Paul, Julia, Theresa and Tony. In 1969, Antonio handed the reins over to his son-in-law, William Rutherford, as Julia's husband and later their daughter, Mary (Rutherford) Myers, continued the family business.

Today, Caruso's is owned and operated by Theresa's two daughers, Julie Sparks and Jane Wright, as they work to ensure that their Grandfather Antonio's legacy and the art of candy making will continue for many more generations to enjoy.

Caruso's is pleased to fill special orders and will ship its boxed candies across the country. In addition to its homemade chocolates, made with dark, milk and white chocolate, Caruso's is also known for its Almond Toffee, Vanilla Caramels, Pecan & Cashew Delites, Soft-center Homemade Creams and, of course, its holiday and seasonal candies.   

From its traditional cheese and pepperonia pizza to its desert pizzas, topped with your favorite fruit, Saylor's also offers a wide choice of sandwiches and full dinners, featuring mouth-watering ribs, barbecue chicken strips, their big and meaty meatballs and more, plus mashed potatoes. For a quick snack, be sure to try their hot buffalo wings, cheese sticks or garlic bread. Ligher appetites will enjoy their fresh salads.

This second-generation, family-owned pizzeria prides itself on friendly and fast service, and is most often the pizzeria that schools and businesses select for their in-house dining needs.
