	&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;About Lollyphile&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;We&amp;#8217;re a San Francisco candy company with a sweet tooth and a short attention span. We&amp;#8217;re having fun experimenting with new flavors and watching the reactions of our friends when they try out our creations for the first time. We started waaaaaay back around Halloween of 2007 when we found ourselves with a lot of absinthe and no candy. One thing led to another, and we ended up getting picked up by a few candy boutiques and building a website, which got way more business than we&amp;#8217;d ever expected it would.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;It did so well, in fact, that we started brainstorming other candy flavors. After playing around with molten sugar and a number of flavors, we decided that Maple-Bacon would be a fantastic follow up, so we built another website, and now we&amp;#8217;re playing with more flavors. We&amp;#8217;ve got a few queued up, and we&amp;#8217;ll let you know what they are when they&amp;#8217;re ready. Be excited. We&amp;#8217;ve got some really cool stuff in development.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;We believe that candy can be every bit as much a gastronomical adventure as a fancy dinner, and we want to see just how far we can go. We want to make you remember exactly why you threw fits when your parents wouldn&amp;#8217;t buy you candy, and then we&amp;#8217;d like to gently remind you that you&amp;#8217;re perfectly able to buy your own candy now. Good thing you saved your allowance.&lt;/p&gt;</body-html>
