Caruso's Candy Kitchen
Owner: Jane Wright & Julie Sparks
Contact Person: Jane Wright & Julie Sparks
130 S. Front Street
Dowagiac, MI 49047
(269) 782-6001
This full-line confectionery shop, which has been serving lunch since 1922, is best known for its old-fashioned soda fountain and hand-dipped chocolates.

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.

If you hunt, fish, hike, garden, farm, eat, or do anything else, involving natural resources, then you benefit from the work of Michigan's conservation districts.

Michigan's 80 conservation districts are responsible for educating the public about the benefits of conservation practices. They work to convince resource users to protect the resouce, maintain its productivity, and protect or improve its profitability. The state's conservation districts are referred to as "gateways" to natural resource management in their local communities. Sharing boundaries with most Michigan counties, they provide linkages between land owners and managers, and a host of conservation service providers.
