Our philosophy is meshed in our love and respect of food as it has been the cornerstone of our upbringing. Like many of you, we grew up eating home-made meals prepared from scratch daily by Mom using fruits and produce grown in the backyard or bought at the colorful ethnic markets in or around the neighborhood. Food was and is an expression of joy and love towards others. It is no mystery that food, sweets in particular, bring joy to people and are meant to be shared with loved ones.
