Description
Chocolate has a reputation for being a guilty pleasure. But Honey Mama’s chocolate challenges the notion that chocolate is nothing more than a sweet treat. This chocolate has a secret – it has healing properties.
Christy Goldsby, Founder of Honey Mama’s, shares her journey from owning a bakery to creating refrigerated truffle bars with real whole ingredients. She shares her inspiration behind using honey as a sweetener, a natural preservative, and an anti-fungal ingredient that has a profound impact on our bodies. Christy reveals the challenges of breaking industry norms and emphasizes the importance of meeting consumers where they are. Drawing from personal experiences and a background in baking, she discusses the power of a gut-focused cleanse, which motivated her to venture into chocolate.
In this episode, Christy talks to Jen about how she created chocolate with healing properties, the challenges of going against industry standards, and the expansion of Honey Mama’s into conventional grocery stores.
