About Us

FROM SWEET BEGINNINGS

3222_bob_donna.png

When my four brothers and I were growing up, my dad, David H. Koch Jr., made caramel at Christmas. We took the caramel to school and sold it by the piece or traded it with our classmates for cookies from their lunches. Dad also gave it as Christmas gifts for family and friends.

​

I later learned that my great-grandmother had made the same caramel years before, and before World War I, there had been a family-owned candy store in Canton, Ohio. This same recipe has been in my family since 1904!

​

Unfortunately, my dad passed away before we could make caramel together, but our business is built on his tradition. To start our first sales, my wife Donna and I made caramels for a craft show, and we did very well. When she told me we had over 100 pounds of orders, I thought she was kidding; the most my dad ever made was 50 pounds one year. We made the caramel, packaged all the orders, loaded the candy on a sled, bundled up the kids, and set out to make deliveries in our small hometown of Freeport, Ohio.

​

Our sons Aaron and Brandon were in grade school at the time, while our daughter Bethany was still a toddler at home. Eventually, they each continued the tradition of giving, selling, or trading caramels at school.
