I've been falling behind on posts over the summer β±οΈ so here's one from last months box. (2 boxes left) π¬ makes thee best peanut brittle and sweets I've probably ever had! The strawberry shortcake was to die for. π€€
Sweetsmith Candy Co. was founded by Dannah in the summer of 2012. With money saved for school that she earned from paper routes, and jobs growing up, she began cooking her candy at home and selling at a local farmer's market once a week.
It didn't take long for her to notice the need for allergen friendly, delicious treats; she decided to take the opportunity to both pursue her passion for experimental cooking, and provide the much-needed reprieve from the uninspiring sweets available to those with wheat, soy, dairy and egg sensitivities.
Her handcrafted candy (all of which is based on a family recipe which she committed to memory as a teen) caught on fast. Soon enough she had to quit her day job, rented a commercial kitchen, and hired help to keep up with the demand.
