How did your company get started? I always enjoyed making candy and working with chocolate. Then, I started teaching chocolate-making classes. As (my daughter and partner) Susan got older, she would want to give gifts to her friends for Christmas and Valentine’s, so we started doing chocolate. People started to ask, “Can we purchase your products?”
Why chocolate? I was a member of home demonstration clubs. The home demonstration agent who worked for the Ag extension did a demonstration on homemade candies. I was hooked from then on.
