MK Kosher is delighted to welcome Bonbons Richard to our growing family of certified companies. This partnership brings something wonderfully nostalgic to our community: a full line of gourmet candies made in Quebec since 1956, now certified kosher and ready to bring a little sweetness to tables everywhere.

A Family Story Nearly Seventy Years in the Making

Bonbons Richard began in 1956 and has grown, over time, into one of the largest confectionery companies in the world. It remains a story rooted in family, precision, and quality. The Richard family built their business on using only the finest raw materials, and by continuously applying careful engineering throughout their manufacturing process, they maintain rigorous quality control at every single step of production. From their factory and shop in Trois-Rivières, Quebec, Bonbons Richard has turned candy making into both a craft and a science.

There is something special about a company that has been perfecting the same sweet traditions for nearly seven decades, and MK Kosher is proud to welcome that legacy into our certified family.

A Full Selection of Sweets

Bonbons Richard offers a wide and delightful range of confections, and our community can now enjoy every one of them knowing they carry MK certification.

Maple Candies
A true taste of Quebec, Bonbons Richard’s maple candies capture that beloved maple flavor in a classic hard candy form.

Throat Lozenges
Soothing and flavorful, their line of throat lozenges includes honey, mint, eucalyptus, and cherry varieties, offering comfort in a wide range of tastes.

Sugar Free Candies
For those watching their sugar intake, Bonbons Richard offers an extensive sugar free selection, with flavors ranging from cinnamon and raspberry blue to butterscotch, watermelon, green apple, and more.

Barley Sugar
A classic confection with deep roots, their barley sugar candies come in flavors like maple, strawberry, licorice, peppermint, and cherry, offering a nostalgic treat for candy lovers of every generation.

Bonbons Richard also offers private label services, crafting custom confectionery products for businesses looking to create their own branded candy line, a wonderful option for organizations in our own community looking for something sweet and uniquely their own.

Why This Matters for Our Community

At MK Kosher, our mission has always been to make it easier for people to enjoy the foods they love with full confidence. Candy plays a special role in so many moments, holidays, celebrations, a treat for the kids, or simply a small sweet pleasure during the day, and having a trusted, longstanding name like Bonbons Richard now certified gives our community even more to enjoy without any compromise.

This is also a wonderful example of what MK Kosher stands for: partnering with companies who have already built their reputation on quality and care, refined over decades, and helping extend that same trust to our own community. Bonbons Richard has spent nearly seventy years perfecting their craft. MK Kosher is proud to add our seal of trust to that legacy.

A Warm Welcome

To the entire Richard family and team, welcome to the MK Kosher family. We are so glad to have you, and we look forward to seeing your wonderful candies bring sweetness to even more homes, now carrying MK certification. Here is to a long and delicious partnership ahead.
