our story
- It all started on the family farm when August and Johanna Wax planted their first fruit trees in 1920 on Vashon Island, a short ferry ride from Seattle, Washington. The Wax family began to develop products that were only sweetened by fruit and coined the term "Fruit-sweetened" to differentiate their products from those that used sugar, corn syrups and other sweeteners. Today the family business is owned by Odette and David D'Aniello and Odette's sister Mary Ann Quitugua, keeping the tradition of staying a Northwest family owned business alive. Our roots are in bakery and we own Celebrity Cake Studio, a premier cake bakery in Tacoma, Washington. Our passion is living a life of balance and purpose which is why we purchased Wax Orchards. We believe that life's moments should be celebrated by all and Wax Orchards offers a sweet solution for those on a limited diet by choice or for health reasons.
FruitSweet® is Enough Sweet
Wax Orchards® Chocolate Fudge sauces have been the go to treat for thousands of households for over 30 years. We sweeten our product with FruitSweet®, a proprietary blend of fruit concentrates and created the best tasting vegan and with no cane sugar fudge sauce in the market. We keep it simple and natural with only four ingredients and minimal processing. Try a spoonful of Classic Fudge or Oh, Fudge! alone or with your favorite coffee or hot beverage. It's delicious in desserts and drizzled on fruit for an all natural treat. We also offer our FruitSweet® sweetener so you can use it as a 1 to 1 sugar replacer for all of your cooking or baking needs.
