Brown's Bites

Brown’s Bites is a privately held and owner-operated, family-based enterprise. We specialise in handmade old-fashioned sweets and slices, taking you on a trip down memory lane. Each block is a master piece, a bite size goodie that brings you a little sweetness for everyday life. Brown’s Bites was founded in 2000 by Marisa Oosthuizen. She was born in Queenstown to Nic and Dolly Brown. Brought up

on their farm, her mother made the most delicious creamy fudge. It was this sweet memory that fuelled the inspiration for what would become Brown’s Bites. While still a home economics teacher, she embarked on a quest to create the perfect confectionery. At home she mastered the art of creating the exceptional creamy fudge we know today and sold it at school for their school fund. The humble beginning slowly grew into a dream of owning a family business. Since then Johan, her husband and former Springbok rugby player, joined the business as a partner. Their team work with passion and pride to provide the customer with a safe, quality product. The staff and management are up skilled on a regular basis and Brown’s Bites factory complies with all regulatory requirements for food safety. With Food Safety and quality a top priority, the factory undergoes regular hygiene and food safety audits, based on ISO 22000 and SANS 10049. There is an extensive Allergen Management program in place and all products and related products are tested on a monthly basis.
