I always go to Marlene's when I need chocolate for molding or baking supplies. I've always left with what I went in for! Staff is attentive and they say hello when you get there.

I only go here 2-3 times a year in preparation for the big holidays but they always seem to have what I need and the prices are very reasonable. A tad more than what I'd pay off the internet but I can see the quality of what I'm buying (and it's all good quality here) PLUS get great advice! If it's a haul for you just call ahead to see if what you need is in stock - they can get it in quickly! Nice friendly staff and hassle free parking- even during the Christmas rush!

Okay. I know this is sorta lame and old ladyish of me to write a review of a baker's supply shop. BUT, I had a very nice experience here. I was looking literally ALL over Cleveland for a specific cake pan. This was the only shop that had it. Sure, it was expensive. SURE, I didn't really even USE it because I basically effed up the cake and had to throw it away and almost had a breakdown and then my sister had to come and get the pan and bake the cake for me..... sooo.... moving on. The lady behind the counter (not sure if she was the owner or not) was one of the friendliest people ever. She was kind enough to open the box and point out the different pieces of the pan and showed me how to use it. Obviously, though, I cannot follow directions. Right now, as I sit here covered in flour, frosting, and pieces of the cake that I dug my fingers into and squeezed (and almost flung into my kitchen wall), I am a satisfied effing customer.

Dated interior. Higher prices than what you should pay when you can get the same stuff at Pat Catan's or Michael's but alas, the struggle of a small business that doesn't have the purchasing power of a large chain store. Employees are knowledgeable and helpful.

I took cake decorating classes here. It was a lot of fun! The whole staff is friendly and fun! My mom took these classes as well, many many years ago. This place is historic! I have such fond memories as a child coming here with her. All the Sesame Street characters made out of icing behind the glass, all the awesome cake pans to look through, endless supplies for any baker! Love this place!

Clearly the person who reviewed Marlene's doesn't know too much about chocolate. You only get what you pay for. You can go elsewhere for waxy chocolate wafers for less money or you can go to Marlene's for quality chocolate. Shopped here for many years. Ordered from here when we lived out of state.

I've been going to Marlene's since I was a little girl. I loved stopping in here before a holiday to buy chocolate to use in the molds. We'd also one new mold each time, which was the big excitement. I still go to Marlene's at least 2 or 3 times a year to get my wonderful bags of colorful chocolate disks (so much better than the kind you get at the grocery or craft stores). Since I've already got about 100 molds, I haven't gotten a new one in years.It really brings back great memories of decorating chocolate treats with my mom (who has past away) and my sister. I will be shopping this weekend to make some treats for Thanksgiving.Everyone working here is very gracious and knowledgeable. They have a great variety and always just what I need. The only thing I would change would be the hours, but I'd be willing to take time off work if I needed to, to get to Marlene's.
