ABOUT US

Ultimate Nut & Candy Co. is known for quality, the kind of quality that has persisted throughout the company's 50 years in business and remains today as an important part of the heritage and tradition of the company's products and philosophy.  And the proof is in the eating.

Starting as one of the original tenants in the famous Los Angeles Farmer's Market at 3rd and Fairfax, Ultimate Nut & Candy Co. has been sending our specialties all over the world since then.  If you ever come to Los Angeles, drop by the Farmer's Market, we are still in our two original stalls.

All of our chocolates and other products are handmade, all natural and without artificial preservatives.  Nuts are fresh and roasted in 100% Expeller Pressed Naturally Refined High Oleic Sunflower Oil.

Our philosophy has always been to buy the biggest and the best products for our customers, products that couldn't be found elsewhere because of the quality and price.  The prices are higher, but the highest quality is what differentiates us from all the others.

Around 1975, as some of our customers moved out of Los Angeles, they began to ask if we would send them our products, because they could not find our high quality around their new home.  Some customers asked for us to send it to their friends.  Thus, began a small mail order business that spread by word of mouth.

In 1981, we finally decided to develop a mail order catalog for all the customers who wanted to "see" the new products and packages that had been developed.  From 1981, our catalog has grown to over 15,000 families who have been our customers.  We have always had a strict policy that our catalog would only go to those requesting it.

Here, at Ultimate Nut & Candy Co., we strive to have the "Ultimate" in Quality, the "Ultimate" in Service along with the "Ultimate" in Integrity.
