hi, hola
Yami Yami was started by me, Yamina, a Catalan with roots in Spain & Algeria in love with the Californian harvest.
My thing for confections started at culinary school, under the teaching of Nicole Plue at The San Francisco Cooking School—but I completely fell in love after working at Craftsman And Wolves In San Francisco, where I deepened my knowledge of delights like caramels, pâte de fruit, marshmallows, brittle and jams...Just a lil’ Non Stop! So here I am, making my own rules, trusting my own creativity & doing what I love from home.
sustainable, small batch candies to sweeten your day!
💛
fresh & organic
💛
Yami Yami does everything fresh in small batches, this allows us to be flexible, move and flow with the seasons, using fruit at its best! Everything is handcrafted, always fresh & organic—using only organic whole fruit from local farms.
Our goal is to build relationships with local farmers & makers, to know exactly who and where our ingredients come from.
What is PÂte de fruit anyway?
a love letter to texture
No Gelatine!
Pâte de fruit are traditional french jellies with a succulent texture, made with a high fruit content and set with apple pectin—making them suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
Always Surprising
✨
Soft and juicy, sweet and bright! Just some of the words that pop into mind when describing our Pâte de Fruit.
Because we use fresh whole fruit, each small batch varies in color, texture and that’s the fun of them!
Bath time!
We roll our sweeties in refined white sugar or organic cane sugar—which is vegan friendly and also gives our sweeties a crunchy texture and a beautiful golden hue.
