Franchise Interviews meets Derri Cerbone, founder of Tasty Image
Tasty Image Franchise Opportunity Meets Franchise Interviews - Tasty Image began
mid 2003 in Jupiter, Florida. After becoming a part-time affiliate to sell printed chocolates, Derri Cerbone saw rather quickly
that there was income waiting to happen within the chocolate industry. She quickly moved forward with the purchase of her
first Food Imaging System and began to promote and sell printed personalized chocolates out of her home. Business grew as
did demand. Customers requested a variety of chocolate items which, at that time, were not available through Tasty Image.
It didn't take very long to realize that there was a need, a market and a void that needed to be filled. Why NOT increase
product line? Why NOT incorporate molded chocolate? Why NOT bring in chocolate fountains? The natural progression to expand,
to create, and to satisfy more customers. Before she knew it, Derri was providing chocolate fountains to weddings and parties,
packaging up handmade truffles, and designing gift baskets for each and every major holiday. Thus, today you have the first
full retail Chocolate Shop Franchise that features a unique Food Imaging System! Today, Tasty Image is a one of a kind chocolate
boutique! It all started with a school teacher's dream and is now a worldwide phenomenon!
This Model requires approximately 1,000 square feet of retail store space and has all the benefits of the Tasty Express
Model. Additionally, within the retail space, you will house our proprietary imaging system which prints directly onto the
chocolate, cookies and other confectionary products. Along with the products and services offered to the customer, you are
able to image chocolate while the customer watches.
