Works

Ms. Benjamin founded True Treats Candy in 2010.[3] Benjamin’s 2016 book, Sweet as Sin: The Unwrapped Story of How Candy Became America’s Pleasure, covers North America’s history of candies and confections. Benjamin describes these candy stories as rich and deep, from a national, political, and human rights level.[4] It also made the Smithsonian's "Best of Books about Food" for 2016.[5] More recently, she has discussed the history of sugars and sweets on National Public Radio,[6] Voice of America, ABC News Hour Radio[7] and many more. Articles featuring Ms. Benjamin have appeared in such places as Salon.com,[8] the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette,[9] Vice/Munchies.com, the Arizona Republic,[10] the Sacramento Bee,[11] Woman’s Day[12] and Bon Appetit, among many others. Ms. Benjamin gives presentations at museums, historical societies and other venues throughout the nation, including the Smithsonian Museum of American History, the Deadwood Museum in South Dakota,[13] and the Mount Vernon Gardens and Hotel,[14] where the New York Times cited her talk as one of the top five events of the weekend.
