Origin Story & Identity
RG Candy became official in 2022, but I have been making my famous caramels and other wonderful sweets for nearly 30 years. Throughout my career as a video professional and public school teacher, cooking and experimenting in the kitchen has always been a beloved hobby and escape from the daily grind.
Whenever someone would have one of my caramels for the first time, they would say, “wow, these are so good! You should sell them!” So in 2022 I decided to give it a go. We started out as a cottage kitchen business and expanded into a commercial kitchen on our property in 2025.
We produce in our own fully licensed commercial kitchen and Robyn has a food managers license.
Our Mission is to “Revitalize confections through vintage styles, techniques and flavors”.
Core Values:
Make it the RIGHT way: Using established recipes and techniques, RG Candy holds true to the origin of wonderful tasty treats that will continue to resemble what candy is supposed to be!
Customer experience: Our candy encapsulates our customers taking them back in time to childhood experiences that bring happiness and nostalgia.
Quality: Dedicated to maintaining the quality that would be grandmother approved.
All of our products are naturally Gluten-Free!
RG Candy’s product line includes many favorites of candy lovers:
Definitely most proud of making my signature product: “Mom’s Famous Salted Caramels”. It’s the product that RC Candy, LLC is based upon, and continues to be the best seller.
Philosophy & Practices
There are two things that remain very important to me: 1) all natural, (non GMO) ingredients, and 2) Made in The USA products. I work extremely hard to target products and select vendors who allow me to stay true to my personal standards when running a business.
Personal Care! I am committed to maintaining my core business approach of small batch, hand crafted candy. While machinery and other technologies may provide higher volume opportunities, those influences would erode what is special about RG Candy.
From cooking to wrapping to packaging and labeling, everything is done by hand and for the most part by one person. It is time consuming. Hopefully with further growth, we can hire someone to help with some of the non cooking chores.
Daily Life & Personal Connection to the Work
I truly love making candy, especially my salted caramels. Every batch, bag, and piece of caramel brings a smile to my face, knowing that one of my customers is about to have the best piece of caramel they have ever had!
Honestly, my favorite way of enjoying what I make is seeing the customer’s reaction the very first time they try one of my candies. When a customer first tries one of my caramels, usually, the immediate reaction is amazement followed by the facial expression of pure enjoyment! A customer’s reaction to my products is truly the BEST it gets! As for a pairing… My caramels will take your cup of coffee to the next level. 🙂
Now that we have become an LLC, with the addition of a commercial kitchen, I am excited about continuing to transform RG Candy from a successful Cottage Kitchen business to a fully functioning, and prosperous company. Continuing to expand our reach by making our products available to customers of businesses like yours, is the current dream! The answer to “how far can RG Candy go”, has yet to be defined. 🙂
