Listen Later

Had the pleasure of sitting down with Rose Candido owner of Slice of Life Foods life the other day. We had such an amazing conversation about business, family and life.

A former director of sales for Bell Canada, decided to leave her career and try out the baking industry with her husband Mauro Candido who was a baker through the family business.

After years of success in the traditional baking business and suppling stores around the GTA her husband Mauro began to show some signs of being allergic to gluten. At this moment Mauro decided to take things into his hands and worked day in and day out in creating this bread like no other in the business. A gluten free bread with simple and minimal ingredients. And now today Slice of Life Foods is becoming one of Canada’s best keep secrets for healthy bread.

Sit down and take some time to listen to this inspiring story of Rose and her journey as a mother, entrepreneur and her recent challenge of  the loss of her husband. Today her kids and herself decided to keep her late husbands legacy alive in continuing the family business. Support this amazing business the next time you are in a store or order online.

If there is one thing that stuck out the most in this interview it is that life is short and we need to let go and move on. Thanks again Rose for

Such an amazing conversation.
