Hard candy, by hand, since 2018.
Our family started making hard candy in 2018, and we still do it the slow way: every batch is cooked in a copper kettle, then formed on vintage equipment that gives each drop its shape. No shortcuts and no junk, just real flavor made in small batches in Thomasville, North Carolina.

Real batches from our kitchen. Tap to play with sound.
Stretched by hand, from a 1910 recipe.
All four of our brittles are made the old, reliable way: cooked, then stretched by hand on a sugared table. That stretching fills every piece with tiny air bubbles, which keeps it light and crisp and helps keep it from sticking to your teeth, as most brittle does.

I wanted to gatekeep Chesebro fruit slices… but I can’t. They’re literally the best fruit slices I’ve ever tasted. Absolutely obsessed.
