The following is a “script” for one of Matt’s segments:
New England is internationally known as one of the centers the ice cream universe. And one of the biggest stars in our local galaxy is Marc Cooper.
Having trained with the founder of Steve’s and Herrell’s, and as a past owner of several Herrell’s shops, Cooper has been at the forefront of frozen fun for decades.
His latest (and perhaps greatest) move is a partnership between Coop’s Micro Creamery and Working Opportunities for Women (WOW) – a social enterprise of Project Place – a Boston nonprofit that provides job training and employment support for women.
As WOW’s first business partner, Coop’s is encouraging women to enter the culinary world by running a business that is its own sweet reward – producing his legendary hot fudge, vegan hot fudge, cold brew mocha and salted caramel sauces and a hot cocoa mix that keeps Coop’s cool even when the weather is not.
All of Coop’s Food & Beverage Magazine and Specialty Food Association Award-winning topping creations are all natural, gluten free with no GMOs, preservatives, or corn syrup and feature his unique drippy recyclable lids. Thanks to WOW, every delicious jar not only satisfies ice cream lovers but also helps disadvantaged women enjoy the vital benefits of employment and self-esteem.
As the saying goes, behind all great men are great women- and Marc Cooper is living proof!
