Fat Ass Fudge is Donna McCue's grandmother's recipe for lactose-free fudge. Will Shark Tank take a bit out of not only the Fat Ass Fudge but Donna's company? Donna is a big personality, and the Sharks are stunned by her presentation.
Fat Ass Fudge is Gluten Free pitches Shark Tank
Fat Ass Fudge is Gluten Free which is something that Mark Cuban focuses on when looking at investments. She as sixty thousand dollars in sales and is in two Whole Foods stores.
Donna tells the Sharks that she always wanted to be in show business and she would beat the chocolate instead of beating herself up when she didn't get a part. She is such a card! She named her company after what her mother used to call her when she was growing up. The Sharks are stunned at her story. The Sharks look petrified from her pitch.
Her sales over the last twelve months are sixty thousand dollars, and she is so excited because it is just one person, but the Sharks are not impressed with Fat Ass Fudge sales.

Fat Ass Fudge after Shark Tank
Fat Ass Fudge ended up being sold to a company called Chocology. The deal happened about a year after the Shark Tank pitch. I wonder if Chocology gets the Shark Tank effect on their website, typically found by companies who present on the hit TV series?
