Sweet Stash is an American candy company founded in 2025 by musicians Ezra and Adeev Potash and actor Martin Starr. Based in Omaha, Nebraska, the company produces gummy candies shaped like music notes.[1][2]
History
The founders of Sweet Stash met at the Big Slick Celebrity Weekend, an annual fundraising event benefiting Children's Mercy Hospital in Kansas City.[3] Development of the product involved collaboration with food scientist Tessa Porter, formerly of Ferrara Candy Company, who helped refine the product's texture and formulation.[2] The New Yorker described the gummies as influenced by Swedish and Japanese confectionery traditions.[1] The packaging was designed by Ellen Van Dusen, founder of the design studio Dusen Dusen.[4]
Sweet Stash has stated that a portion of profits will be allocated to support arts education, including programs in music, theater, film, and related creative disciplines.[2]
