Bees & Beans

Bees and Beans was founded in 2010 by Faith Dionne, a classically trained pastry chef. A mother of two, she decided it was time to utilize the paradise of ingredients in Portland, Oregon to create something truly special. Faith set out to reconstruct the classic candy bar replacing candy coating with domestic dark chocolate, local honey eliminated the need for corn syrup and only the finest regional nuts, butter and sea salts. Faith shared her love of quality local ingredients with her first creation the Honey Bar, which then became the Honey Bar Jr. and Honey Bar Reserve. She developed numerous amazing recipes for delectable candy bars that elevate candy from years past. After doing production for almost a year, Andrea Marks took over in late 2016 and is now the Queen Bee running every aspect of the company.
