Keep Calm & Bring a towel.

The last thing I did while I waited for Cassandra to get home Saturday night, was put the kids to bed & fold some towels. I put Cassandra’s in the bathroom for her so it would be all ready for her shower the next morning. I’m ashamed to say that I specifically chose this towel because, first it’s grey and she firmly believed the grey towels dried better as the green ones are inferior, and second that this was the one that folded the worst. I figured she would open it up in the morning and that error would be gone and forgotten. Well instead, now that towel still sits there as a constant reminder of how things can change. Sometimes a simple little act of laziness will be a lifelong horrible memory. We have all worked around it and left it just as it is waiting for her walk down the stairs, complain about how tall her hair was that morning, get coffee and wander into shower. For now I guess I can take some solace that her towel was ready for her next adventure.

I would love to tell you that I am just surprised and taken aback at the amount of support that I have received between all of the wonderful posts that I have read (keep the stories and the photos coming please), people reaching out to me privately, and everyone looking for ways to help honor Cassandra. But let’s be honest here. This is EXACTLY what I and anyone else would have expected. I am still overwhelmed by everything going on. It is so wonderful to see just how far and how bright her light shined. I am sorry that I have taken so long to say anything and I likely will retreat again for some time immediately after this post. Please do not take that as lack of appreciation. As you might imagine this has been incredibly difficult to process and while the magnitude of what is going on is beyond astonishing it has also made it even harder to face on a personal level.

With Sincerest Appreciation & Sorrow,

SWEETS TO DIE FOR


I embarked upon the first leg of the journey that is Fear’s Confections in March of 2010, as a home-based mail order and catering business. With growing demand, our small home kitchen was quickly overrun with candy and brownies piled onto every flat surface.

On August 4th 2013, Fear’s Confections made the leap to an out-of-home production and retail space. This progression allowed for the expansion of product lines and better service for our local customers. In addition to this store front, our products are also available in other retail locations in the Cleveland area!

A wide variety of handmade chocolates are also available. Caramels, toffees, truffles, and pecan turtles are just a small sampling of what we create. All of the products offered are made in small batches using the freshest possible ingredients with no additional preservatives giving them a truly homemade essence. My products as well as my store reflect my rockabilly personality through a clearly vintage feel, with a splash of modern edge. Everything is made by hand with the care most expect to have been long forgotten by today’s mass produced disposable society. Thanks so much for stopping to visit us. Keep checking back to see the new flavors coming down the road!
