CC Farmers Market Introduces Tasha Vansickle

 

Cameron County Farmers Market

Today we would like to welcome back one of our most unique market vendors—Tasha VanSickle from Freeze Dried Emporium! If you’ve ever tried her treats, you already know: Tasha doesn’t just freeze dry food—she transforms it!

Every week, her stall is packed with colorful, crunchy surprises. From sweet to savory, classic to totally unexpected, she’s always cooking up something new (without actually cooking anything at all!). Her freeze-dried goodies are a market must-try.

Craving ice cream in a whole new form? Tasha’s got you covered with imaginative flavors like Banana Split, Fruity Amaretto, Key Lime Pie and Rainbow Sherbet—plus entire chocolate chip cookie sandwiches and creamy orangesicles. The best part? No melting mess! These treats are crisp, cool, and melt-in-your-mouth delicious.

Candy fans, prepare yourselves. Her freeze-dried candy selection is legendary. We’re talking fluffy marshmallows, taffy bites, fruity gummies, peanut brittle, and even cotton candy stuffed fruit rolls!. With their airy crunch and intense flavor, they’re like your favorite sweets—only better.

But it’s not all dessert. Tasha also offers perfectly preserved fruits like cantaloupe, blueberries, and sugared kiwis, plus veggies with a twist—think cinnamon-sugar carrots or crunchy dill pickles. Who knew healthy could taste this fun?

Freeze drying keeps all the flavor, extends shelf life, and keeps nutrition intact, which is part of why Tasha’s creations have taken off. What started as a passion project has turned into a booming business with products now sold in stores around the area and online at https://freezedriedemporium.com.

And to top it all off—Tasha’s will also be bringing her popular cotton candy this season and adding in some fresh baked goods when she has time to squeeze in a little oven magic. You can catch her at our next market on Saturday, May 24th from 9am to 12pm at the Emporium Town Square. Stop by, say hi, and treat yourself to something totally unique—you’ll be glad you did!
