I started Candid with a goal of building transparency and sustainability into the company DNA. What does this mean in practice?

1. The chocolate industry suffers from labor and environmental abuses. Some estim...

A Confectioner at Heart

My story begins where so many others do — doing something else entirely. The first 15 years of my career were spent in Manhattan as a graphic designer. In 2000, dreams of becoming a chef led me to culinary school, and, eventually to Eleven Madison Park, one of Danny Meyer's crown jewels at the time. At EMP, making confections became second nature to me. And when something becomes second nature, I can’t help but tweak it until I make it my own....

As a lifelong Upstate New Yorker, I come from a family deeply rooted in the love of nature and the art of creating. Growing up, I was surrounded by makers and doers who found solace and joy in the outdoors and working with their hands. The beauty of our lush forests and glistening lakes shaped our family's identity and instilled in us a deep appreciation for the wonders of the natural world. There was nothing quite like a weekend spent at our family cabin in the Adirondack Mountains.

We’re Troy and Winston — childhood friends turned gravy-makers. We always bonded over a craving to stir sh*t up. By college we were tired of boring bland premade pasta sauce, so we set out to create a sauce that has more flavor & more fun than your traditional canned marinara.
