Soul Good Confections

As June comes to a close, I've been reflecting on five years of Soul Good.

Five years ago, I set out with one simple idea:

Create artisan caramels that more people could enjoy.

Over the years, I've met countless people who carefully read ingredient labels before choosing something sweet to share with family and friends. Those conversations have reminded me that food is about so much more than dessert—it's about feeling included, celebrating together, and knowing everyone around the table can enjoy the moment.

As this anniversary month comes to a close, I'm feeling especially grateful.

Thank you for supporting a small Massachusetts business, sharing Soul Good with the people you love, and believing in the idea that simple ingredients can bring people together.

This summer I'll be quietly refreshing our packaging, growing our retail presence, and preparing for an exciting fall season.

I'd love your help with one part of that journey.

Where would you love to find Soul Good Confections?

If there's a local market, farm stand, gift shop, or specialty food store you already enjoy shopping at, leave a comment or send me a message. Some of our favorite retail partnerships began with a customer recommendation.

Thank you for helping make these first five years possible.

The reason behind every caramel

A few thoughts as summer begins

I've been spending time with family and helping care for my brother, which has naturally pulled some of my attention away from Soul Good for a little while.

Thank you for your patience, your support, and for being part of this community.

During that time, I've found myself thinking again about why Soul Good exists in the first place.

Like many of you, I'm a label reader.

I know what it feels like to stand in front of a shelf, wanting something simple and sweet, only to discover it's filled with ingredients that don't work for you.

That desire for something uncomplicated, inclusive, and enjoyable is what inspired Soul Good from the beginning.

And it's one of the reasons Father's Day always feels meaningful to me.

My dad loved sweets, and many of my favorite memories of him are tied to those simple moments of sharing something we both enjoyed.

As Father's Day, graduations, summer gatherings, and Independence Day celebrations approach, I'm reminded how often nostalgic food helps create those small moments of connection - and how meaningful it is when everyone can share in something sweet.

If Soul Good can be part of one of those moments for your family, that means a lot to me.

Looking for SoulGood Confections in person?

You can always find upcoming events and retail locations on our website (https://soulgoodconfections.com/find-us-locally) .

One practical note: our caramels travel best during cooler weather, and they freeze beautifully if you'd like to enjoy them later this summer. If a package arrives a little soft during warmer weather, a short visit to the refrigerator quickly brings them back to their ideal texture.

Our artisan caramel collection is ready to enjoy.

Thank you again for being here.

With love,
Kim

A family reminder of why I started SoulGood 🤍 Click here for an update from Soul Good Confections!

This is exactly why I started Soul Good.

What began as a search for something simple and safe…
has turned into moments like this.

Reading this honestly stopped me in my tracks.
Thank you for coming back year after year — it means more than I can say.

And for everyone who has discovered us the same way…
I’m so glad you found us.

🤍

At this point, I don’t go to VegFest… I go to find this caramel. 😅

This is me with SoulGood Confections—and yes, I hunt down this booth every single year.

What started as a quick sample turned into a full-blown tradition.
Because these aren’t just vegan caramels—they’re hands down some of the best caramels I’ve ever had. Rich, soft, buttery (without the butter), melt-in-your-mouth, and actually feel like a real treat—not a substitute.

Like… if you handed this to someone without saying a word, they wouldn’t question it. They’d just keep eating.

Kimberly, the founder, started this company because she couldn’t find sweets that were safe for people with allergies and still felt indulgent. So she made her own—using simple, organic, coconut-based ingredients and skipping dairy, soy, and the usual additives.

And somehow made it taste like this.

No weird aftertaste. No chalky texture. No “this is good for being vegan.”
Just… ridiculously good caramel.

If you ever see SoulGood Confections at an event—go find her booth. Immediately. I’m not even being subtle about it. 😅

This is what I love about VegFest—
you discover small businesses that are doing one thing and absolutely nailing it.

Also, for the record… I’ve bought these for the past three years, and yes, I’ll be buying them again. No regrets. 😌

If you went, what was your best find this year?

On this emotional trip to Ocala, a bright spot was found! Thanks to my good friends for supplying the best road trip treat and filling my heart with a little joy!
