Simcha Sweets (found at http://simchasweets.com/) carries only products that are certified as strictly kosher. Our business is under the Supervision of Rabbi Sholom Salfer, Rabbi of the Winands Road Synagogue Center. Since we do not manufacture any of the products ourselves, this means that all packaging is performed under Rabbi Salfer's oversight in complying with strict kosher laws.
In addition, in order to provide the most transparent information possible about the manufacture of all the products that we carry, we display the manufacturer certification for the individual chocolate, candy, dried fruit, nut, and novelty food items that we carry.
"Kosher" is a designation that is confusing for many. It is not reflective of a Rabbi blessing the food. Instead, Kosher is indicative of the ingredients and the care of those ingredients as they move from raw form into the processed foods that we are eating.
