Our Story

It started with a cottontail

At Mortimer Farms, my daughter Reya spotted cotton candy and wanted some. But I knew I could make it myself — and make it better.

What followed was months of research. I studied organic sugars, tested different equipment, and experimented with countless flavors. Earl Grey tea, quality whiskey, seasonal spices — I wanted to create something truly special. I sat on the idea, perfecting my approach before finally convincing my partner to take the leap.

When that first puff of cotton candy emerged from the machine, Reya's eyes lit up with wonder. "It looks like a cottontail!" she exclaimed, watching the fluffy white cloud take shape.

In that moment, watching her joy at this simple creation, the name was born. The bunny became more than just a logo — it represents that spark of wonder, the magic of creating something special for someone you love.
