After years of working in media, Rob and Jean needed a change.

They’d long been dreaming about business ownership, leaving behind long commutes and entire days away from their three-year-old son. So, in 2006, that dream became reality and Templeman’s Toffee was born.

In the beginning, they traveled from town to town while mastering their recipe, swapping the 9-to-5 grind with weekend craft shows all across the country and a sense of adventure.

“We had so much fun! We met a lot of great and like-minded people, beating to a different drum and chasing a dream,” says Jean.
“I think anyone at the time would have called us crazy,” says Rob, “But we knew we wanted to be home more and make our own rules.”

With four great flavours of hard toffee plus a multitude of unique treats, wholesale retailers across the country, and a brand name that many have come to know and love, things are only getting better at Templeman’s.
