A Little Update

It has been an exhilarating few weeks since we launched exclusively at Whole Foods Market. We sold out in many locations with people loving the gummies, received positive feedback, gained some dedicated fans - but they have also been very tough.

Being a new startup, we are growing so fast and trying to keep up that some things have fallen through the cracks as we try to find great ways to expand. Hence the lack of blog posts. We are sorry for the absence but we will be gearing things up and sharing more of our journey with you. Who knew the candy business for a little startup would be so difficult? 

Thank you for supporting a woman-owned, minority-owned startup with just a few of us doing our best to try and break through with a clean snack amidst the challenges. We hope that you will stay with us for the journey of changing the way we eat snacks - we don't have to eat junk, and we don't have to eat animal-derived foods to enjoy life. We can eat clean, and be good to our bodies and our planet.
