2025: A Year to Remember

December 28, 2025

What a year! 2025 was full of firsts for Candied Optimism, and we're so grateful for the community that made it all possible.

A Few Highlights:

• Kickstarter Success: We launched our Kickstarter campaign and you showed up beautifully. Thank you to every backer who believed in Candied Optimism from the start. Find the list of backers here.

• Online Store Launch: Our online store opened in October, making it easier than ever to order your favorites from home. If you haven’t visited yet, come see what’s available.

• In-Person Events: We had the pleasure of meeting many of you in person this year. We participated in four events, gave out lots of samples, and even more smiles.

• Corporate Gifting: We’re proud to have partnered with businesses and individuals looking to give meaningful, handcrafted gifts. If your team or clients deserve something special, we’d love to work with you. Get in touch at info@CandiedOptimism.com
