Tasty Melts in Gulfport sells breakable candy

If you want to get your significant other something other than the traditional chocolates and flowers, Tasty Melts in Gulfport might be something worth breaking into.

Danica Cook, owner of Tasty Melts, started her business just selling homemade cocoa bombs for extra money, but once Cook was laid off from her job, she turned her baking passion into a full-time business.

Cook makes cakesicles, cake pops, Oreo balls, and more, but her most popular items are breakable tempered chocolates that comes in many shapes and sizes.

Each breakable chocolate treat can hold more candy or other items based on the buyer’s preference and they come with their own wooden hammer. The breakable sweets start at $12. “That’s exactly why I wanted to start it here because you don’t see a lot of it. I wanted to bring something new to the Coast, something that would make me different from other businesses and help me grow.”

Cook works out of her home, but you can visit Tasty Melts on Facebook to place an order.
