Hey folks! This is my 15-year-old son Hank and the heir apparent to the Sarah Jo’s Candy dynasty. While I am at my annual roller derby convention this week he will be working at the candy store with his granddad so feel free to stop in and say hi. His hair is black now, but it’s the same guy.

Last week I took a few days off of work and did an internship to finally learn to make caramels. This was my very first batch. My dad let me do everything from start to finish except for lifting up and pouring out the product because the entire store and all the equipment and everything about it is completely formatted around my dad‘s body mechanics and he is half a foot taller than me and we felt it could end in a very sticky disaster. I’ve always been very intimidated to do this, I hate cooking, and I wasn’t sure I would be able to do it, but my dad stated “you have a masters degree and I assure you this is not rocket science.”

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a deer behind the candy store before today!

We are so sorry to hear that one of our long time vendors experienced a major fire😢

We are open today!

Hey folks! We are still closed due to my dad’s injury and as far as I can tell just about everyone is out of caramels at this point. I think he might be back at work in 3-5 more weeks but it is hard to estimate. Thanks for your patience and your supportive messages and calls. If anyone knows of a business that still has some in stock feel free to comment:)
