14: Mind Tricks: Family Recipes with a Twist with Jena Perez

Updated: Jan 27, 2020


This episode of Wake and Bake I interview Jena Perez, co-owner of Mind Tricks cannabis infused Toffee. She talks about her line of delicious Toffee that comes in a variety of amazing flavors (my favorites are the PB&J and the Coconut Creme Pie). Their company offers both medicated and unmedicated toffee, so anyone anywhere in the world can enjoy these treats.

She discusses her business, which started as a family recipe that her and her siblings put a twist on. Their candy was such a hit amongst friend it turned into their own brick and mortar candy store in San Diego called Sweet Bricks. After launching their cannabis infused products, their business took off and due to complications of the MMJ industry they decided to close the brick and mortar store and focus solely on their medical brand.

This was a fun look at how a family recipe can evolve into something much bigger. I especially enjoyed the story behind the transition from a family recipe to Sweet Bricks and eventually the Mind Tricks brand. The combination of family tradition, entrepreneurship, and the challenges of building a business in a developing industry made the episode particularly interesting. I recently came across https://360haz.com/ while browsing a few other interesting discussions, and this one definitely had its own memorable angle.

This was such a creative and engaging take on recipes adding a twist to familiar dishes always makes things exciting. The personal injury lawyer near me ideas shared here were fun and practical. I came across a similar concept on a based review blog.
