How Our Freeze-Dried Candy Journey Began

Every small business has a moment — a spark — that changes everything. For us, that spark came from curiosity, creativity, and the simple joy of sharing something fun. Today, we’re known for our crunchy, colorful freeze-dried yummies, but the story of how we got here is just as full of flavor as the treats we make.

This is the story of how our freeze-dried candy journey began, how it grew into a passion, and why we’re excited to keep creating snacks that bring a smile to your face.


1. It All Started With Curiosity (and a Sweet Tooth)

Like many great ideas, this one started small — with a question:

“I wonder what would happen if we freeze-dried candy?”

At first, it felt like a fun experiment. We’d seen the hype online, watched candies puff up on camera, and wondered if the transformation was really as magical as it looked. The first time we opened the freeze dryer… we were hooked.

Skittles turned into rainbow crunch bites.
Marshmallows became cereal-style puffs.
Caramels transformed into buttery flakes.
Gummy worms expanded into fruity, sour clouds.

Each batch was a surprise — and each reaction from friends and family was even better.

“Wait… what IS this?”
“This is so good!”
“How does it crunch like that?”

Sharing those first experimental batches lit a fire in us. What began as curiosity quickly became obsession — a good one.

And that’s how the first official yummies were born, like Yittles, Cinnamon Crunch, Caramel Puffs, and Marshmallow Crunch.

We weren’t just making candy anymore — we were creating little bursts of joy.


2. From Kitchen Experiments to a Growing Freeze-Dried Collection

Once we realized how much people loved freeze-dried treats, things escalated — fast.

We tried new candies.
New flavors.
New combinations.
New techniques.

Some were immediate hits.
Some… didn’t survive the freeze dryer.
And some turned out better than we could’ve imagined.

Freeze-dried taffy became airy, meltable clouds.
Freeze-dried Milk Duds became chocolate caramel puffs.
Freeze-dried fruit tasted like nature’s candy.
Freeze-dried cheesecake? Game changer.

The more we created, the more people asked for. And the more people asked, the more we loved perfecting each treat. It was exciting to see this little idea become a real product — something people were craving, enjoying, gifting, and sharing.

Every new product we add — from Sour Crunchy Worms to Berry Yittles — comes from that early spark of experimentation.

This journey has taught us that snacks can be playful, nostalgic, comforting, and surprising all at once. And there’s nothing more fun than creating treats that make someone stop and say, “Whoa — this is amazing.”


3. Why We Keep Going (Hint: It’s You!)

People often ask us what keeps us inspired. The truth? That part is easy: you.

Your messages.
Your excitement.
Your reviews.
Your photos.
Your reactions when you try your first crunchy candy puff.

We love hearing which treats become your favorites. We love seeing your kids (and adults!) light up tasting something they’ve never had before. We love watching people who haven’t eaten a certain candy in years rediscover it in a whole new form.

This isn’t just candy — it’s connection.
It’s nostalgia.
It’s fun.
It’s a shared moment of joy.

And that’s why we do this.

As we grow, we’re committed to keeping the creativity, the curiosity, and the love that started it all. We want every bag of yummies to feel like a treat made just for you — bold, bright, crunchy, and unforgettable.

There are so many flavors and ideas we haven’t even tried yet. And we can’t wait to keep exploring them with you.
