Chances are you’ve eaten or at least caught a glimpse of Tannas Botannas‘ spicy candy or rim dips at multiple shops and businesses around Tucson — the Spicy Gusherz are my personal favorite.

Well, now Tannas has gone nationwide! Tannas Botannas has teamed up with the national candy store IT’SUGAR, which is one of the largest specialty sweets shops in the U.S.

Therefore, Tanna Cole’s treats can be found in more than 100 stores including Minnesota’s Mall of America, Hollywood’s Universal Studios, and the Navy Pier in Chicago. For Cole, it “really has been a dream come true.”

“Three years ago when we started Tannas Botannas, a small local business based out of Tucson, we would dream of taking our Puro Fuego candy Nationwide,” she said. “We started making our candy on our kitchen counter — now we have the opportunity to provide jobs for the community in our factory and to sell our products in the entire country.”

Tanna Botannas has two physical locations in Tucson at 4426 S. Sixth Ave. and 954 W. Prince Rd. Plus, you can order any of their sweet treats online. Also, stop by Puro Ice at 314 E. Sixth St. — Tanna Botannas’ ice cream concept and “ultimate munchie spot.” The shop opened its doors in late 2022, bringing the sweets to the Fourth Avenue area.

“We are extremely thankful for everyone who has been a customer/supporter for helping us reach goals and making the Tannas Botannas dream possible,” Cole added. “!Si se puede!”
