From Kitchen Idea to Scalable CPG Brand WITHOUT GUESSWORK, BURNOUT, OR COSTLY MISTAKE

If you’re building a confectionery or food product on the side — and want to turn it into a real business — you don’t need hype or hustle.

If you’re building a confectionery or food product on the side — and want to turn it into a real business — you don’t need hype or hustle

This Isn’t Motivational Coaching

You don’t need to be yelled at.
You don’t need abstract mindset work disconnected from reality.

You need practical guidance from someone who has actually built a food manufacturing business — from a kitchen idea to a multi-million dollar company — in one of the most competitive markets there is.

Daniel doesn’t deal in theory.
He helps you make real decisions about products, pricing, manufacturing, and growth — grounded in what actually works.

This is about doing the work intelligently, not emotionally.

What Daniel Does

Daniel works with people who:

  • Have a food or confectionery product idea they know is good
  • Are tired of spinning in uncertainty
  • Want to stop wasting money on the wrong equipment, packaging, or decisions
  • Are ready to build something real, even if they’re scared

Whether you’re:

  • Transitioning from a career into entrepreneurship
  • Launching your first product
  • Or rebuilding after setbacks

Daniel helps you move from uncertainty to execution.
