Dice Candies began as an idea in 2009, after a fun game of Dungeons & Dragons amonst the founders. Like all good ideas, it started with a Google search for existing products. To their dismay (and eventually their joy), the only options in stores and online for dice in chocolate were standard six-sided dice. In mid-December, Kickstarter featured the project as part of their weekly newsletter featuring 3 projects. Support skyrocketed, eventually reaching over 1700% funding. It changed from a simple project to what eventually became Dice Candies. An exciting adventure with a lot of future possibilities, a small project became a small business, rising out of a national recession on a dream and on the shoulders of people across the world. In 2014 Dice Candies began using modern 3d printing, combining it with standard methods of mold making to create in-house, affordable, custom chocolates for businesses and non-profits.
