About Mr. Amy
(AKA Jonathan)
The absolute best thing that ever happened to Amy's Confection Company (and Amy!) was Amy's marriage to Jonathan Burns in 2006. He immediately became not only her partner in life, but also her business partner. After a couple of years of helping set up wedding cakes, making deliveries, washing dishes, and doing anything else he could to help out, Jonathan decided he wanted his own "division!"
With Jonathan's love of cooking and after growing up in a North Carolina BBQ restaurant, he wanted a line of dips and spices to make everyday cooking, grilling, and entertaining a little bit easier. So, in 2008, Mr. Amy's Gourmet Dips & Spices was born! The line features easy to make savory, dessert, and olive oil dips that can be used alone or in your favorite dishes!
What is the name Mr. Amy all about?
Jonathan always accompanied Amy to dessert caterings, weddings, galas, and any other public event where Amy was serving cake, dessert, or chocolates, as well to craft fairs across North Carolina. It never failed that at each event someone would ask if he was "Mr. Amy." Eventually, he gave in and began introducing himself as Mr. Amy. When the time came to name his line, the first thing that came to mind was what his "fans" know him by...Mr. Amy!
