During the show, Ben Clark shared valuable insights into how Ann Clark Cookie Cutters navigated the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. In the initial stages of the pandemic, their sales skyrocketed as families searched for engaging activities to do together at home, and cookie-baking became a cherished pastime.

However, as COVID restrictions started to ease, the dynamics changed. The cost of materials, particularly steel, increased substantially, making production more expensive. People began to venture outdoors and engage in activities they couldn't enjoy during lockdown, resulting in a decline in cookie baking. This shift posed challenges for Ann Clark Cookie Cutters as they faced rising production costs amid decreased demand.

Today, the company has successfully navigated these challenges and adjusted to the evolving market. Ben also discussed some exciting new product launches by Ann Clark, including pancake mix, waffle mix, and icing mix. These additions were inspired by the desire to provide innovative, high-quality products that continue to spark creativity in the kitchen.
