Spring is on the way...

Or is it summer?

Bulbs are sprouting and blossoms are falling...we have been having some lovely weather here in the bay area lately and are feeling Spring is near and filling the shop with new goodies!


Introducing handmade p.o.p. candy, all-natural butter crunch (imagine buttery toasty toffee without the corn syrup). Melts in your mouth, so yummy!
We have two of their wonderful flavors, Pecan Butter Crunch, just like a pecan pie and p.o.p. Mix which is a blend of almonds, pecans, pistachios, and cashews. Both flavors are gluten free too!


Believe it or not Easter is just around the corner so be sure to pick up some treats to fill your baskets or leave the work to us and order one of our custom baskets.




Save the date!
