It started with a hot summer day and two hungry kids.

Lolly's Frozen Grapes® began the way a lot of good things do, in a mom's kitchen, trying to solve a very small problem.

On a hot summer afternoon, Lolly Parker was searching for a dessert her kids would actually love, and everything on the market fell short. Popsicles were a commitment. Ice cream was impossible to share. And the "healthy-ish" snacks always had some buzzword ingredient of the week baked in, which her kids could detect in a single bite and promptly refuse.

Then someone suggested the simplest thing imaginable: freeze some grapes.

Simple enough… until she actually did it. Wash, dry, pack, freeze and hours later, frozen grapes. Her kids devoured them. So she dipped a batch in chocolate, and they loved them even more. A few toppings later, she had three flavors and a snack her kids begged for on repeat.

The only problem was that making them was a labor of love, heavy on the labor. One afternoon, elbow-deep in grapes, she thought: "I wish I could just buy these at the store." That was the lightbulb moment.

She started selling them at the Simi Youth Baseball snack shack, and people kept coming back for more, parents, kids, anyone who tried one. That little counter told her everything she needed to know: this wasn't just a hit at home.

So she called her friend Sumi Nishi, and together, as co-founders, they turned a kitchen experiment into a company. They got Lolly's Frozen Grapes® onto shelves across Los Angeles, the product took off, and they've been scaling ever since, now partnered with three distributors, including one international, and ready for orders.

Today, Lolly's Frozen Grapes® is a proudly women-owned company with a simple mission: a better-for-you treat that's actually fun to eat. No weird stuff, just real grapes, a little chocolate, and a whole lot of love.
