Rooted in tradition and bursting with bold Louisiana flavor, our mission is to bring the magic of New Orleans straight to your doorstep. Whether you're treating yourself or sharing with loved ones, our confections are designed to surprise, delight, and leave a lasting impression.
Let us take your taste buds on a soulful journey-one pretzel, one praline, one unforgettable moment at a time.

MEET THE OWNER

Born and raised in New Orleans, she has had the privilege of experiencing its rich culture and tradition. From the incomparable Mardi Gras to some of the most popular music, food, and festivals in the world, to the historically infused French Quarter, New Orleans can never be duplicated nor imitated. As a Native New Orleanian, she has learned to embrace her heritage and wear it with pride no matter where she goes. She also had the unforgettable experience of working with her dad all her life. Throughout his many business endeavors, she was right there by his side. When he had the fortunate opportunity to become part owner of his own candy store right outside of New Orleans in Metairie, La., she seized the moment to be there! Working at Sugar Dolls Candy Store opened the doors to learning all sorts of secret recipes of which she still uses today. So when she moved to Atlanta in 1999 after graduating college from Xavier University of Louisiana, she yearned to bring some Crescent City flava to the Peach State!
