FORMER DAYCARE OWNER TURNS CHILDREN'S PROJECT INTO POPULAR SWEET TREATS AND INCUBATOR SPACE FOR CULINARY ARTISANS

Natasha's Just Brittle has been added to a 2019 Visit Baltimore crowdfunding campaign launched to keep doors open

Baltimore, MD -- Natasha Wainwright is a Baltimore-based entrepreneur who previously founded and ran an eco-friendly daycare, Progress Place Learning Center (PPLC). Natasha's Just Brittle was conceived in summer 2009 as part of a business fundamentals learning project for the children at her daycare. PPLC Sweet Treats, the daycare's made-to-order sweet shop, sold over $500 in confections that summer. The brittle was the most popular item and was in high demand from the community long after, sparking the creation of Natasha's Just Brittle and an opportunity to present and sell-out on QVC.

"Although we sold-out of brittle on QVC, I did not have space or staff to manufacture the volume of handcrafted brittles and that is why I opened B'More Made with Pride Commercial Kitchen to support myself and fellow culinary artisans," says Natasha. "This is a game changer for small businesses, however, I cannot keep the doors open without the support of the people."
