- Hand-sculpted marzipan candy
Marzipops is the marzipan candy company of Dahlia Weinman, who launched it in 2014 in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Her background is an unusual mix: a yeshiva education, a Harvard MBA, earlier work in finance, publishing and marketing, and ten years as a cake designer.
The cakes led to the candy. Custom cakes were hard to scale, she has explained, but customers kept asking for the marzipan toppers, so she pivoted from cakes to candy. The first commercial product was a marzipan matzah lollipop for Passover, which is where the name comes from. The line has since grown past lollipops to more than 200 designs.
Everything is designed and sculpted by hand to order in Ann Arbor, and it is all vegan and certified kosher parve by the Chicago Rabbinical Council. The humor is the point: punny mahjong tiles, Hanukkah conversation tiles, paint-your-own dreidels, marzipan sufganiyot and pizza bagels, baby-naming onesie tiles, and Shabbat and holiday place cards that double as dessert.
