WHO ARE YOU, WHERE ARE YOU FROM, & WHAT DO YOU DO?
I’m David Keck, the owner of Bubba’s Fudge and Nuts, LLC.  I’ve been making fudge for over 50 years.  I’ve lived in the CSRA on and off since 1988.  Worked for Electrolux until I retired in 2019.  Since then I’ve been doing a lot of volunteer work and in 2020 decided to establish Bubba’s Fudge and Nuts, LLC so I could sell my fudge to the public.

DESCRIBE YOUR PROCESS.
I make each batch of fudge, about 8-10 hunks/jars personally.  Over the years I have developed about 60 flavors and we offer about 16-20 flavors at any one time.  We specialize in helping our customers by providing a complete service option, taking your mailing list, making the fudge, packaging it, (we offer gift boxes and gift cards) and shipping it for you.  Less for you to worry about, let us handle it, start to finish.  We can also work with you for your business by adding your business cards, labels, etc. for a customized appearance.

WHAT INSPIRES YOU?
Being able to use the business to give back to help support those in need.  We support (with our time and financially) Project Life, offering free food and clothing with a loving attitude, on Gordon Highway.  Cooper Ridge Farm which helps special needs children/individuals learn various skills to help improve their lives.  We also support other organizations as needs arise (Resolute Ministries, BSA) and as we are led to participate.

FUN FACT ABOUT YOU.
I enjoy developing new flavors of fudge that people request and to see if it meets their expectations. Several of my new Fall/Winter flavors are from people who requested them.
