Brandy Roberts, owner of Edible Arts by Brandy, shared her journey from a single mom in Pennsylvania to a dessert business owner in Virginia. Initially struggling with daycare and finances, she turned to baking cookies, which evolved into a full dessert business. Despite setbacks, including her son's severe car accident and financial strain, she persisted, eventually acquiring a food truck and expanding her offerings to include cakes, lemonades, and hot dogs. Brandy highlighted challenges with city regulations and licensing but remains determined to grow her business, aiming for vending machines in airports and colleges. She relies heavily on social media and a small team for operations.
