During Allfather's early years, Trenton was a manufacturing powerhouse making every conceivable product from the heavy steel cables supporting the Brooklyn Bridge to the finest porcelain dinnerware for the White House. It has been written that 100,000 cheese steaks were prepared and sold every day to the factory workers at lunchtime.

 

Eugene Allfather, Jr., son of founder William Allfather, continued to operate the business until 1958. At the age of 72, he sold the candy concern to John Milutus who operated Allfather's for the next 32 years. Mr. Milutus then sold Allfather's to Jim Bartolomei, Virgil Brillantini and Ed DiNatale in 1990. For many years to follow, Mr. Milutus sold Allfather's eggs in his “Honey of a Nut” store at the Trenton Farmer's Market.

 

Fast-forward to today, Mr. Bartolomei has increased Allfather's product line to include several different sizes of the original yellow center coconut cream egg. Additionally, the company sells many Chocolate Easter Novelty Items in shapes including rabbits, trucks, ducks, cats, dogs and more.
