Celebrate Your Unbirthday With A Hot Fudge Sundae At This Alice In Wonderland Themed Candy Shop In Ohio

A birthday happens but once a year, but you know what happens the other 364 days? Unbirthdays. This delightful celebration of the everyday made popular in "Alice in Wonderland" is the very definition of treating yourself, and there's a themed chocolate shop in Ohio that makes it all too easy to comply. Malley's has been a Northwest Ohio staple since 1935, and the Lakewood location is a longtime favorite with an "Alice in Wonderland" theme that's impossibly charming and just plain fun to visit.

There's nothing like a visit to an old-timey ice cream shop to turn any frown upside down...

...or turn any regular, old day into an "unbirthday" celebration!

Clevelanders know where to go for such a "mindset reset" and it's the same place we go to celebrate birthdays, special occasions, and, well, the everyday: Malley's.

Since 1935, Malley's has been serving Clevelanders scoops of happiness -- topped, of course, with dangerously decadent hot fudge sauce and fluffy-as-air whipped cream.

While the chocolate/candy/ice cream shop has locations across Northeast Ohio, Lakewood is where it all began. Since first opening its doors, Malley's has been a place for gathering and celebrating, no matter the occasion. The shop's whimsical "Alice in Wonderland" decor sets the stage for a delightful experience 365 days of the year.

If it's your birthday, stop in for a hand-scooped sundae, complete with the shop's signature hot fudge sauce.

If it's *not* your birthday (AKA, your "unbirthday" as per The Mad Hatter), order something equally decadent -- perhaps a banana split or strawberry shortcake sundae. With, of course, a generous side of hot fudge sauce.

Can't decide on what to order? Grab a few different sundaes to try... it *is* your unbirthday, after all.

One thing you absolutely *need* to incorporate into your unbirthday treat is hot fudge. Malley's signature hot fudge sauce is iconic and a surefire way to elevate ANY plain, old scoop into a magnificent, Mad Hatter-approved masterpiece.

I am a hot fudge fanatic, and truly -- this is the best of the best!

Have you visited this fairy tale candy shop in Ohio? Malley's Chocolates is a delightful destination that will welcome you with joyful exuberance (and hot fudge!) whether its your birthday, unbirthday, or just a random Monday afternoon.

To this end, why not turn your trip to Lakewood into a mini getaway? This colorful painted lady is a whimsical and wonderful place to stay in Lakewood, Ohio, that's a fairy tale come to life.
