History

Established in 2013.

Let’s take a quick look on how we got here. We were both born in Israel, grew up on a farm where we used to milk cows and work on the corn field. Then we moved to New York City and went in a whole different direction. Better said, directions! Just look at our job history: trucking, warehousing, house painting, renovation, kitchen installation, we sold fresh squeezed orange juice from Florida to the best restaurant in New York, managed a coffee house in the SoHo and worked at one of the finest wine stores in the city. We basically did everything!

Are you still wondering why we got into this business, after all? Well, have you ever thought of how much candy people eat? Huge amounts! But they always eat the same brands, over and over again, reluctant to try something different. So we wanted to introduce people to the insanely amazing sweets from all over the world. Because some of the best sweets come from places many have never thought of. We have pledged to go out there and find them.

One has an affinity for strange and «unique» food but is also half color blind, has had diabetes for over 30 years and sustained a harsh diet that consist of low sugar and «healthy» cardboard-​ish food, while the other is a below average cook with an above average IQ, and a long history in high tech & business and a lifelong misguided food fussiness. At first glance, you might wonder if we are good candidates for a sweets store, but this is not about us, we did not set up to make sweets or to even pretend to be an authority on what’s good. Instead, we set out to bring you the best-​est, unique-​est and fun-​est candies that we can find around the world, in any category of sweets relying on the conventional wisdom and taste of our customers, consumers, bloggers, reviewers, importers…
