About Us

Zook's Dutch Kitchen began with a dream of providing quality candy to the West Coast.

Zook's Dutch Kitchen started with the task of providing candy for one small fruit stand along Highway 18. That one market launched a dream of providing quality candy--Grandpa Buswell's candy, originally--to the West Coast. Today our candy is shipped throughout the Willamette Valley. Experience our superior candy for yourself!

Zook's Dutch Kitchen has added a line of granolas available for purchase, using only fresh local natural ingredients, with no sugar or preservatives added. We also have jams, jellies, and apple and pear butter available. Contact us for a list of available "no sugar jams."

Zook's Dutch Kitchen is certified to make products for public consumption. For more information on our credentials, please contact us.

The history of Zook's Dutch Kitchen

Zook's Dutch Kitchen is located in the Willamette Valley of Oregon in an old renovated farmhouse kitchen operated by entrepreneur Loila Zook.

The "Dutch" heritage is two-fold: our traditional Mennonite grandparents were mistakenly called "Pennsylvania Dutch" when they arrived in the New World, and the family tree includes some Dutch European history.
