Our History

In the early 1900's Fredrick Brummer came to the United States from the Saxton region of Germany. In 1904 he, along with his wife Catherine, established Brummer's Confectionery in Jersey City, New Jersey. Making ice cream & candy in this location was a booming business because of all the trolleys & carriages heading into Manhattan. They all passed by the store. Later a luncheonette was added to service all the traffic. Fredrick & his wife had two children who continued the business in the 1940's and 1950's. Bob & George now continue the tradition. No longer having a luncheonette or ice cream parlor allow the two to concentrate solely on their chocolates & candies.
