The Journey:
From Friends To Founders

We met at just 20 years old, both working in nursing homes and learning what it meant to really care for others. Danielle, with a background in social work and criminal justice, quickly found her calling in leading senior living communities, while Tara, a certified PMP, specialized in marketing and operations, helping connect facilities to the communities they served. Over 15 years, we grew from entry-level roles to executive positions, building meaningful careers that always focused on compassion, connection, and impact.Today, with over 3,500 completed celebrations, our commitment to creating unforgettable experiences remains unwavering. What started with one candy truck has grown into a full fleet of signature candy and snack trucks, a boutique Gift Shoppe in the heart of Park Ridge, NJ, and a rapidly expanding franchise program that is taking our sweet vision nationwide.​

The Shift:
Embracing A New Chapter

When the pandemic hit, we were still working full-time in healthcare, running Curbside Confections on nights and weekends, focusing on events with 100 or more guests. With large gatherings paused, we reimagined our business, offering candy deliveries, joining drive-by parades, and launching an online store. Taking a leap of faith, we left our healthcare careers, expanded our fleet, and fully dedicated ourselves to growing Curbside Confections and committing to our vision. Leaving our healthcare careers—where we had been so passionate about supporting individuals and families during some of their toughest transitions—was a significant decision. But it also reframed our purpose: we were now able to bring joy to people during their happiest milestones and celebrations. From helping families through difficult times, we transitioned to celebrating life’s sweetest moments, and it’s a journey we’re grateful for every day.

A Mission To Celebrate

Our years in healthcare taught us the value of compassion, connection, and making people feel valued. Today, we bring those values to every event we create, ensuring that each celebration is seamless, joyful, and unforgettable. We’re proud to offer our clients and their guests an experience that feels just as meaningful as the care we provided in our healthcare careers. At Curbside Confections, we’re not just in the business of candy; we’re in the business of spreading happiness.
