Hi.

My name is Gary Zidek. Welcome to The Arts Section. Tune into the radio program every Sunday morning on WDCB 90.9 & 90.7 FM or listen to it online here. I'll be showcasing a variety of arts & entertainment stories.

The Candyman

The Candyman

WDCB’s Gary Zidek talks to Mark Bridges, the founder of Grandpa Frank’s Candy, about the journey that led him to open his company.

LISTEN

Wheaton resident Mark Bridges learned how to make caramels and other sweets from his grandpa Frank. For years Bridges continued the tradition, making candy for fun, gifting batches to friends and family. Eventually he realized there might be a business there, and Grandpa Frank’s Candy was born.
