The Candy Dish Now Open
In 2015, after a short period of filling orders for private events, Co-Founders and fellow New Englanders, Melissa DiMinico, and Shauna Semenza realized their homemade candy products were gaining popularity and shifted their trajectory by committing to their confectionary craft full time. Since opening The Candy Dish, this sweet-minded duo has turned their business into a premiere artisan candy company, claiming praise, awards, and accolades from regional culinary competitions and trade shows. This past holiday season, they introduced their first brick and mortar store with their pop-up at MarketStreet Lynnfield. The pop-up thrived and inspired the two women to grow their business into a new permanent location. The Candy Dish customizes flavors that will elevate all celebrations and features assortments of candy, beautifully gift wrapped in luxe signature boxes and gift bags. A can’t miss item is its signature Chocolate Lobster, which is similar to a chocolate turtle, but allows for even more buttery caramel to be sandwiched between cashew “claws and legs.” It can be purchased in milk, dark or white chocolate. www.thecandydishco.com | @thecandydishco
