It’s all about the entrepreneurs for today’s Black People Magic!
Our city’s own superstar Brown Sugar Bakery is getting ready to go nationwide! Stephanie Hart, the creator of everybody’s favorite caramel cake, just had a big ribbon-cutting ceremony on Thursday to officially open her new 10,000-square-foot manufacturing facility on the South Side. She took over the Cupid’s Candies facility near 76th and Western to expand her sweets empire and has partnered with Angelica’s Bakery to bring her sweets to local grocery stores just in time for the holidays.
“Shark Tank” TV personality, marketing guru and FUBU co-founder Daymond John got a surprise honor from his hometown, New York City, last weekend while he was taping segments for Black Entrepreneurs Day at the Apollo Theater. Daymond helped raise almost a million dollars for small business grants and curated the celebration of black small businesses owners and founders which will stream live on Wednesday and include a celebration of the 50th anniversary of hip hop.
Remember to always celebrate your magic! xo
