Our Story - Sparko Sweets
Where Every Moment Gets Its Spark
Los Angeles, 2014. Jerry was staring at endless rows of conventional candies—identical, forgettable, destined for the same dusty bowl. Candy should do more than just sit there, he thought. It should light up a room.
So he did something about it. He built his own production facility in Los Angeles, sourced premium ingredients, and developed a streamlined process that could efficiently customize each lollipop—galaxies, roses, even corporate logos—without compromising handcrafted quality. What started as one person's vision has grown into a team of passionate candy artists and creative minds who bring magic to every project. The mission was simple: give event planners and brands a treat that tastes amazing and amplifies the energy of any moment.

Why We're Called Sparko
From day one, we knew we needed a name that felt as joyful and unexpected as our lollipops. Something that would make people smile just hearing it.
Sparko was born from that spark of inspiration—you know, that little burst of wonder when something delights you out of nowhere. The kind of feeling we wanted every single lollipop to create.
But here's the thing about that "o" at the end: it's not just a letter to us. It's the perfect circle of a lollipop, the "oh!" of surprise when someone sees our Galaxy pops for the first time, the round warmth of sharing something sweet with people you love.
Sparko feels playful without being childish, memorable without trying too hard. It's a name that works whether you're 8 or 80, whether you're planning a wedding or just treating yourself to something special.
Just like our candy, Sparko is designed to spark joy, love, and wonder.
Our Mission
Every lollipop we craft is a mini-canvas designed to maximize happiness—whether it's a couple's "I do," a product-launch wow-moment, or a kid's first galaxy pop. For corporate teams, our candy becomes a pocket-sized memory trigger: hand a guest a branded lollipop, and watch recall, smiles, and social shares soar.
