CANDY & COOKIES
Dan's Chocolates
1995 B.D.C. (Before Dan's Chocolates) - While many great ideas are hatched in boardrooms, still others spring from more modest origins. Having witnessed the incredible growth of the Internet, Dan began looking for the next big thing, the next paradigm shift to rouse the senses. And one cold January night the obvious question arose, "What about chocolate? Really great, fresh chocolate. The kind of chocolate that makes your taste buds beg for more?" And just like that, a revolution was born. From these humble origins, Dan's Chocolates has grown to be a champion for great chocolate and good will. They have harnessed the power of the Internet to bring you the freshest, tastiest chocolates available.
DAVID'S COOKIES
Back in 1979, in imitation of the fad for fresh-baked cookie shops along the west coast, David, a New York City chef with a winning cookie recipe, decided to start a small cookie-shop business of his own. Chef David, trained in the finest French culinary academies, began mixing and tasting; using only the finest, all natural, ingredients - pure vanilla, butter, Swiss chocolate and whole nuts, he achieved his anticipated result; a uniquely delicious cookie that looked and tasted "just like mamma made!" Fame and fortune came David's way; he won many awards for his fabulous cookies including the NY Newsday Cookie Award for the Best Chocolate Chunk Cookie!
CHERYL & CO

MRS. FIELDS COOKIES
It was all about taking control of her life. So Debbi Fields, a young mother with no business experience, opened her first cookie store in Palo Alto, California in 1977. They told her she was crazy. No business could survive just selling cookies. Humble beginnings launched Mrs. Fields into a worldwide celebrity and made her company the premier chain of cookie and baked goods stores. Headstrong determination. A dynamic personality. A sincere concern for people. They all played a role in Debbi Fields' success. But quality, more than anything, accounts for Mrs. Fields' worldwide acceptance. The mission has always been to create the highest quality product possible - every time. That commitment has yielded products like no others, deeply satisfying personal indulgences that consumers just can't get enough of.
