About Us

A love for chocolate and baking led to the conception of Sugar Daddy Desserts in 2003, when James Crowder was creating what would later become the original “Concho Caramel.” At that time, he was baking creative cakes and pies for family and friends, and it was said his deep-dish chocolate pie was one of the best ever.

James decided he wanted to focus on developing artisan and designer chocolates. He received his Chocolatier Designation from the Professional School of Chocolat L’Art Chocolate: Ecole Chocolat. He attended a “chocolate boot camp” in Madison, Wis. and also received a Certificate of Chocology when he studied chocolate design under the tutelage of Elaine Gonzalez, the author of “The Art of Chocolate.” He was honored to be a guest speaker at the Retail Confectioners International Candy Clinic in Minneapolis, Minn. and was noted in Manufacturing Confectioner trade magazine.

Because of his West Texas heritage, James chose to emphasize “all things western” in his chocolate designs. Sugar Daddy Desserts uses the highest quality chocolate and other ingredients from around the world. They make all of their chocolate creations in small batches to ensure quality and flavor. The unique flavor combination and designs are exclusive to Sugar Daddy Desserts and their Cowboy-Up Collection.
