Business Inspo: After Jessee and his wife purchased a
freeze dryer to preserve produce from their family's garden,
they discovered online recipes for freeze-dried candy. They
decided to make and sell candy to help pay for the machine,
but things took off in a big way.
Fun Fact: The business is named after an affectionate nickname
from Jessee's six kids. As for the vibrant branding?
" The pink came from my wife. She owns a hair salon and
most of the time she has pink hair so her clients call her
Pinki. "
Signature Sweets: Skittles plus original flavors like Berry
Cheesecake Chrunchys (Berry Skittles with a cheesecake
flavoring and Margarita Crunchys (lime forward, Margaritaflavored

Signature sweet: Two words: Pound cake. Choose
from a dozen (and counting) flavors including the fanfavorite
pineapple upside down, chocolate marbled, lemon

Sleeper Hit: Barbes loves all her creations, but when
pressed to pick a favorite, she chose candied walnut
pound cake. " My husband and I love to warm it and
have it with fresh whipped cream! "

frosting and apple crumble pound cake for fall, cranberry
