It's a family affair at Creations by Jodi

You name it and Jodi Hardiman-Redmond can create it.

Creations by Jodi is the family-owned and operated business that helps people celebrate the special events in their lives. The business specializes in creating customized chocolate treats, gourmet cupcakes and other sweet treats.  

"Each one is unique," says Hardiman-Redmond, "and all are named after my grandchildren."  One speciality of the shop is chocolate-covered fruit: "All of our fruits are hand-dipped. Every piece." She says the process takes time, but the attention to detail is worth it.

Hardiman-Redmond says she started the business about 15 years ago, doing only a few jobs, but the demand has grown every year and she is now poised for a move to a brick and mortar location. "I have a vision for the business that I am following," she says. "I customize all our products and people trust me to work their business."

Until the move to a store front, the best way to contact Creations by Jodi is through her website. You can also follow her on Facebook or Twitter.
