Here's What Happened To Dollop Gourmet After Shark Tank
By JAMES LEWIS
Created by Heather Saffer, Dollop Gourmet was designed to provide a better option than artificial cake frosting, which Saffer appears to dislike vehemently. During her Season 7 appearance on "Shark Tank," Saffer managed to negotiate a deal with Barbara Corcoran of a $75,000 investment in return for a 25% stake in her company, but how has her business fared since then?
Even though Dollop Gourmet rocketed to fame after its "Shark Tank" appearance and seemed to gather commercial success while under the control of Saffer, the business appears to have been less fortunate since it was bought out by the Canadian company Mimac.
While Dollop Gourmet's website displays a wide array of frosting flavors, all of them have been listed as being sold out for some time, coupled with some labeling and certification issues, all signs seem to point to the fact that the business is not doing well. As for Saffer, she is currently working as a program coordinator and business coach, helping entrepreneurs with their start-up companies.
