About

You are invited to experience a sneak peak into the Marshmallow Factory responsible for creating signature items such as our marshmallow bark, chocolate covered marshmallows and gourmet smores-to-go kits.  Long before The Marshmallow Factory surfaced I had a very diverse and exciting career.

10 years were spent designing for others in the industry of Graphic Arts. After graduating from the Culinary Institute of America I joined Compass Group of North America training chefs and hospitality management teams for 20 years, traveling all over the United States from Baltimore to Florida and from New Mexico to St. Louis and Chicago.

Not comfortable with a laid back retirement which turned to be very short lived, My husband, Andy and I launched the Downtown Market Grille in Wolfeboro, New Hampshire which we enjoyed for Five (5) years.  The next venture was more relaxing and seasonal, we developed and operated "Kiki's Ice Cream" in Exeter, Rhode Island where we literally learned how to scoop ice cream overnight! 5 years later we found ourselves in Dunedin, Florida operating the Marshmallow Factory from our shop on Main Street. In 2022 we relocated to our home state of Connecticut and the shop is now open in the Main Street Market, 386 Main Street, Middletown, CT.
