Spotlighting the founder of Lanzi Candy Company, Elmo Lanzi, a real-life Willie Wonka, a creator of unique candies made from machines that he invented. His most famous confection, Lanzi's Cashew Nut Crunch, would achieve national cult status, while transforming him into a local celebrity. Like many first-generation immigrants, Elmo had hoped to pass down the family business to his children. But this never happened, and 10 years after selling the company to outsiders, Lanzi Candy was gone.
