2 “Di” 4 Gourmet Karmel Korn

Specialties

We are creators of Premium Gourmet Caramel Corn and Popcorn’s. Our caramel corn and savory flavors are to die for (2 «Di» 4), will keep you craving it, and coming back for more. We are constantly compared to another famous vendor in Chicago, and we have yet to not win that taste test! You may have had our product if you’ve ever been to a Coyotes, Suns, Mercury, or Rattlers game, or any concert or event at Job​ing​.com arena, or US Airways center. We are no longer there, so that we can focus on wholesaling to our vendors, and spoiling you at our Avondale shop. We also have snow cones, and now carry award-​winning, Karen’s Kreamery ice cream (another local woman-​owned small business)

History

Established in 2010.

What started as a craving for «Di“ane over 25 years ago, slowly grew from making small batches at home, in a tamale pot… to making it on a slightly larger scale, still from her kitchen, in a custom coated, food safe, cement mixer (whole story on our website). After an inquiry from Wayne Gretzky, acquiring a little 400 sq. ft deli in Avondale, and the interest of a few investors, the commercial equipment was purchased and we’ve been growing ever since. We became the official Karmel korn suppliers to the Phoenix suns, Mercury, Rattlers and Coyotes, as well as US Airways center, and Job​ing​.com arena. We have since left those venues so we could shift our focus to our wholesale clients, and our 1350 sq.ft. shop in the historic Avondale district.

Meet the Business Owner

Diane T.

Business Owner

Di (2 Di 4 Gourmet, LLC) is a 54 yr old mom of 4 beautiful kids, ages 33 – 19, and Nonna to 2 adorable grandsons. Originally an executive Secretary, Di built a successful business with a nutrition company (reliv international) & has been able to support her family with this for over 19 years. Approximately 8 years ago, family, friends, and business acquaintances, got a taste of her confection, that she’d been concocting in small batches in her kitchen, for over 25 years. There was no turning back after that. Although she is now a major contradiction maintaining both businesses, We joke that she can break you, but she can fix you, too!
