Fairytale Brownies
The Fairytale Brownies story began on a kindergarten playground. It is where David and Eileen forged a friendship, and dreamt of a magical, brownie-filled future. Their dream came true in 1992; baking late at night with a cherished, family recipe. They promised to never cut corners on quality and to only use the finest all-natural ingredients. Today, the two are still baking gourmet brownies, cookies, and blondies with rich Belgian dark chocolate, creamery butter, fine cake flour, and fresh eggs. They do not use any trans fats, preservatives, or artificial colors.
​
Every Fairytale Treat is handcrafted in small batches with premium ingredients. Items are offered in bright, expertly crafted bands for one to wrap around their gift boxes. As to the nutritional side of things, items which are certified kosher, gluten and sugar free were added to appeal to a larger client base.
​
In 2001, the pair started working with the national nonprofit Kaboom! to help build kid-designed play spaces. By supporting Fairytale Brownies, you are also giving the gift of play! They have raised over $650,000, worked countless volunteer hours, and donated lots of brownies. Customers can make a donation to KABOOM! at the checkout, and they will match all donations up to $10,000 per year.
​
When customers send their friends, family, and colleagues Fairytale treats, they are honored to be a part of those celebrations and traditions. Order yours today at: https://www.brownies.com/
My Better Batch
Lindsay is the Founder of My Better Batch. She was a newly single mom at 40, standing in the baking aisle with a looming school bake sale. Everything on the shelves promised convenience but nothing tasted homemade. That is when she decided to start My Better Batch, because simplifying life’s sweetest moments makes them even sweeter.
She wanted the joy of creating treats that taste homemade to be accessible to everyone – the working parents, career gunners, college students, and anyone else with a full plate and a hungry stomach. This line is for busy people who love baking and love people through baking.
Time is precious, and My Better Batch believes that delicious cookies should not take hours. Just mix, scoop, and bake—it is really that easy! These mixes are made with clean, simple, non-GMO ingredients and nothing else. They are chock full of premium chocolate and natural sprinkles. Each box makes ~16 3” cookies.
Customers can elect to buy these in singular box form or else select variety boxes. Further, their website holds a collection of scratch made and shortcut cookie recipe videos for new ideas and baking inspiration.

The Farmers Finds
Ripple Protein Shake
Ripple harnesses the power of the small but mighty yellow pea to make waves in your world—and the world—with sustainable, plant-based, lip-lickingly delicious milks, shakes and half & half. They are hoping to change the game by solving some of life's biggest problems with every pour. From nourishing families to helping preserve the planet, Ripple is the bottle that checks all boxes.
​
As to nutrition, innovation is irresistible. So, when they figured out how to harvest the excellent source of protein from yellow peas without any pea taste, they realized it was plant-based gold and patented it. Even better, peas are a regenerative crop. Instead of using up the valuable nitrogen in the soil, peas add nitrogen back in, eliminating the need for fertilizer and making the soil even better than before. Uhm…yes, peas. Further, all of their peas are grown in the Midwestern U.S. and all across Canada.
​
Ripple makes cereal, coffee, shakes, breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks better without dairy, allergens, or comprises. These are a game-changing brand of plant-based milks, shakes and more that taste good, do good and are good for you.
Additionally, Ripple is proud to be a Certified B corporation. This means they meet the highest standards of verified social and environmental performance, public transparency, and legal accountability to balance profit and purpose. For instance, Ripple has saved 238,055,260 pounds of carbon and 1,837,815,255,306 gallons of water through making their products.

Zonk Foods
Over thirty years ago, one man decided that there were no grilling seasonings at the local grocery store worth using. None of them inspired him, or really added to the flavor of burgers, steaks, or chicken that he loved to throw on the grill after a long day of work at his auto repair shop. So, he decided to start blending his own.
​​
Through years of trial and error, he created a family recipe of spices that elevates average burgers to new heights, and delicious freshly ground beef patties into a celestial culinary experience. At all family barbeques and neighborhood gatherings, people would ask where he bought his spice rubs, and he would just laugh. When someone was bold enough to ask for the recipe, he would go inside and reemerge with a zip lock back for them to take home. It was imperative to him that only those who shared the last name Zonkowski ever know the recipe.
Each bottle is master crafted by hand and filled with the desire that you will love each taste as much as we do. Some of the flavors include: BBQ, Everything Bagel, New Orleans Cajun, Rosemary Lemon, and Summer Seafood Boil. These can be bought individually or as part of a gift box. They also offer delivery if in certain New Jersey areas.
Zonk Foods strives to make customers and their recipes look good, and leave their guests and fellow diners asking, "what's your secret?" To purchase, go to: https://zonkfoods.com/
The Farmers Finds was conceived while Loretta Markevics was traveling across the country from 2020-2021. During more than a year on the road, she visited farmers markets all over the United States and fell in love with the memorable stories they heard and the special products they discovered under the diverse tents.
Loretta has spent over twenty years in global advertising and public relations. She lends her expertise to increasing the visibility for the business, so that translates to sales for local makers she features. All of the profits from subscriptions go back into promoting The Farmers Finds and these small-batch businesses. She is proud to offer them support they would not be able to achieve on their own.
​
Gathering the most unique small-batch condiments, crafts and goods from some of the best farmers markets across the country, these subscription boxes are supporting small businesses by creating national opportunities for discovery.
​
The Farmers Finds offers three ways to enjoy: two subscription options (quarterly + monthly) plus a marketplace to buy favorites. It is a new way to shop local. Gift subscriptions are available for the upcoming holiday season. They make great gifts for anyone who loves a good find and makes a great hostess gift, teacher’s gift, a thank you or a holiday gift for the farmers market lovers in your life.
