Well... our beloved Big Van decided to throw us a curveball.
Last week, it broke down halfway through a delivery route, and after a long tow and a few anxious days of waiting, we got the news: it needs a brand-new transmission. 🫠
The repair will cost a little over $7,000, which is a pretty big surprise for a small business like ours.
So, instead of throwing ourselves a pity party, we figured we’d throw ourselves a candy party.
For the next little while, we’re inviting you to help us put Big Van back on the road the sweetest way we know how—by buying candy! Every order gets us one step closer to covering this unexpected repair and getting back to doing what we love: making candy and delivering it to all of you.
And because every good candy party needs something special...
Candied nuts are back! 🎉
It’s been over three years since we’ve made them, and we are SO excited to bring them back.
the lineup:
🍫 Chocolate Covered Peanuts
🌿 Vanilla Cardamom Almonds
🍁 Maple Cinnamon Pecans
(Seriously... they’re so good.)
Whether you grab a jar of nuts, your favorite fudge, or a box to share, every purchase makes a difference for our little business—and we can’t thank you enough for continuing to choose Sweet 717.
As always, thank you for supporting handmade candy, local business, and our wonderfully unpredictable adventures. 💚
