BLOUNTSVILLE, Ala. – An area mom made her dream into a reality. Destiny Blackwood began running a small business from her home in Blountsville. Six Sweet Reasons allows her to stay home with her children while she provides flavored goodies to her customers.
“I put a lot of love into everything I make,” Blackwood said. “I truly enjoy seeing people get excited over treats that are made fresh and made with care.”
She specializes in candied fruit, sour candied gushers and candied apples, though Blackwood said Six Sweet Reasons will soon be expanding its menu.
“Everything is handmade fresh in small batches from my home kitchen,” said Blackwood.
She credits a cherished family member for her dedication to the craft. “I got my love for cooking thanks to my late grandmother, who taught me that food is about bringing joy to people.”
Though the name of her business she credits to her children, saying, “I’m a mom to six, my ‘Six Sweet Reasons.’”
