Sweet Peach's Candy & Confections is under new management after a grand reopening on Thursday.

Missy Peach, owner of Sweet Peach's, recently partnered with Chef Kris Enis, owner of Fallen Leaf Bistro in downtown Rochester. Enis will manage day-to-day operations and create a wide variety of sweets and confections to be sold in the store.

Peach and Enis worked together to assemble a new team to operate the store, restock, and restore regular business hours. She described the new team as a "talented, hard-working group of women."

"Chef Kris is well-seasoned in the culinary field with just over 20 years of experience," said Peach. "Not only does she make amazing food at the Bistro, she also has a lot of experience making and decorating treats and cakes."

"We look forward to creating wonderful, tasty, 'picture-worthy' food," continued Peach.

Chef Enis is enthusiastic about the new endeavor and describes her new role as a "dream come true."

"I'm looking forward to working with Missy and the new staff members to make this a destination shop for downtown Rochester," said Enis. "We plan to hold more regular hours, focus on the 'after school' market, and offer high-quality creations for all occasions."

The store will continue to carry "penny candy" and other traditional candy store staples.

Sweet Peach's Candy & Confections is located at 16 North Main St., in downtown Rochester. Follow Sweet Peach's Candy & Confections on Facebook for more information.
