In 2016, Emily Harpel was inspired to give a nostalgic childhood treat a chic upgrade. Emily secured all of the social media handles, ordered her first machine, and Art of Sucre was born.
Emily launched Art of Sucre as an events-based business, spinning out of the box flavors of cotton candy at weddings, parties, concerts. In 2020, Emily knew that she either had to pivot her business or lose everything that she worked so hard to build from the ground up.
Fast forward to today, and Emily has completely re-imagined Art of Sucre into an E-Commerce powerhouse (with a MASSIVE social following) offering hand spun cotton candy and the oh-so-viral cotton candy glitter bombs in a variety of colors and flavors (like Island Punch, Peach Bellini and Strawberry Bubble Gum... just to name a few).
On this episode of Small Business, Big Conversations... Emily Harpel and the Art of Sucre.
