When it comes down to brands that put 110% into customer experiences, few have managed to create something as sweet as Dylan’s Candy Bar. Since opening around the turn of this century, Dylan’s has grown into the world’s largest confectionery emporium and a multi-channel lifestyle brand with more than 7,000 SKUs across categories from gourmet sweets and nostalgic treats to fashion, accessories, and home decor. Through a blend of nostalgia, style, and an immersive experience whenever you interact with their product, it is hard not to feel like a kid again.

Often called the “Candy Queen”, Dylan Lauren is an entrepreneur, designer, daughter of fashion royalty, and CEO of Dylan’s Candy. The visionary who reimagined how the world experiences candy, Dylan has built one of the most iconic brands in retail-tainment, and become a cultural force – merging sweet nostalgia with cutting-edge design and philanthropic purpose.  Listen in as she unwraps where her inspiration comes from, how she unleashed her inner child to turn classic candy stores into a playground for all ages, why her childhood dreams and an eye for color helped her create a brand that tastes as sweet as it did decades ago—and what her next reboot looks like.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
