Jennifer Meyers - Chief Confectionist - Earth Sugar

Henry David Thoreau wrote: “Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined.” Such is the true-life story of our guest today, Jennifer Meyers, Founder and Chief Confectionist at Phoenix-based superfood confectionary, Earth Sugar – a magical place where she says she creates the purest form of joy. Growing up in Harrington Park, NJ, Jennifer was surrounded by food delights from her grandparents’ local butcher shop. Packed with homegrown produce, deli delights and imported candy, her grandparents created an experience that not only made them small town celebrities but linked Jennifer’s passion forever to the goodness of fresh and delicious food. It was at the age of 12 that Jennifer suddenly developed a stomach disorder that became a nightmare of hospital trips, illnesses, and severe food phobias. After years of pain and suffering, Jennifer took matters into her own hands learning absolutely everything she could about health foods and nutrition. Educating herself about how food was grown, she became a virtual Encyclopedia of fruits, herbs, nuts, seeds, flours, fats, and everything in between, making holistic eating and healing her life’s mission. Fast forward to Jennifer’s dream of creating a first-of-its-kind Superfood Confectionary that specializes in raw organic desserts, energetic snacks, clean label confections, and adaptogenic pantry items. The company name, Earth Sugar, is fun, enchanting and significant, just like the woman who is filling our hearts and souls with delicious goodness and joy from a magical place where happy meets healthy.
