Albanese Confectionery Group, based in Merrillville, Ind., just launched a new line of candy for Valentine's Day: Crunchy hearts in cherry, vanilla and watermelon.

The company was founded in 1983 by husband-and-wife team Scott (50) and Debbie (47) Albanese. It sells its gummies to Macy's, Dylan's Candy Bar in New York City and Walt Disney Co., which stocks them at all its theme parks.
