The sweet and salty mix of popcorn and chocolate is a crash-your-diet temptress, and Atlanta-based 3 Sisters Creative Specialty Foods, LLC (aka business women Jaie Benson and Tanisha Joy Lofton) are making sure you don’t have to go to the movies to get it.
Pop! is a selection of bite-sized goodies of popcorn with white chocolate caramel filling, coated and drizzled in white chocolate or Key lime with white chocolate, graham crackers and Key lime juice, plus lemon, peach and strawberry flavors. All come in boxes of 15 each in packaging just right for chilly perfection. Go to Pop! to order.
Lots of special ladies have started food business from the bosom of the ATL: Bella Cucina, Via Elisa and Frosted Pumpkin Gourmet all started in the the Atlanta area. Do you have an up-and-coming gourmet food business? Now’s your chance to crow…

A local baker with the best shortbread cookies I have ever had. These are shortbread cookies with a twist. Great flavors and ingredients.
She also makes shortbread wine biskets. These are really great in sun dried tomato and garlic and herd flavors.
