Meet the owner<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My name is Emily Montanez and I’m 22 years old. Looking back, the story behind the start of The Pretzel Pantry<\/em> comes as no surprise to me. I’ve always had a passion for making chocolate covered pretzels and a heart for serving others. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Four years ago I combined those two “ingredients” and began selling my pretzels to family members & friends to raise money for mission trips. The support I’ve received – because of these delicious pretzels – has allowed me to serve domestically and abroad in places like New York City, Colorado, Guatemala, Cuba & Uganda! Along the way I’ve had the opportunity to share how my pretzel sales funded these trips and everyone has enthusiastically encouraged me to start my own business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recently God closed some doors, opened a few & moved some mountains to get The Pretzel Pantry<\/em> started! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’re buying my pretzels today\u2026 I want to say “thank you”! You are now an important part of my story!  I hope you enjoy the pretzels as much as I enjoy making them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Order online<\/a> or you can purchase at the Holiday Gift Market at the Florida Fairgrounds Nov 11-14. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
