For many years this was just an fantasy, but after turning my journey of finding the greatest sugar alternative into a business it has become the reality! If you followed Dragon’s Den’s Puresweet saga as closely as what I did, you’re probably also wondering what happened to the company after that particular episode concluded.

Furthermore I thought of questions the dragons may ask and prepared the answers in my head so that I would not be stumped and potentially mess up my pitch. This is where being a fan of the show really comes handy! It was really nice to have a squabble in the Den which lasted longer than what you got to see. Also I went to the wall twice and I tried to negotiate the Dragons down in equity but these parts were all cut from the final episode.Tangle Teezer have now become a massive international brand, with their products being sold in over 90 countries worldwide, turning over more than 27million pounds a year!

He is yet to update fans of the show who have not yet watched the episode in which he received his deal. But it is confirmed that the deal was a double offer from dragons, Peter Jones and Tej Lalvani. Since then we have created many other products to our lineup that fall into our ethos of removing sugar from your diet with no compromise to taste or health. Please keep a look out for more exciting products. We will have Shuga® Cubes available by August 2021, Puresweet Sherbet will be available shortly and we are looking into dessert syrups.

Weirdly out of the blue we got interrupted by a TV licensing supervisor who said that we were not allowed to film because we did not have a filming permit! I have always been business minded and constantly looked out for business opportunities throughout my childhood and early adulthood. This made Dragons' Den an amazing TV show for me, it gave me good insight into the minds of people who have been running successful businesses for many years, providing me with invaluable knowledge, whilst being extremely entertaining at the same time. This baffled me, because we were in a BBC building being filmed by BBC crew, but somehow he wasn't aware of their filming permit which apparently has to be issued for any filming that goes on in the building. My mentor said to him, 'What do you mean?, We are filming for Dragons' Den, we have a permit, if you want you can call my manager'. Furthermore due to Peter Jones hitting his head on a low fitting in the studio earlier on in the day (I didn't realise he was that tall), he had been rushed in to A & E and had to spend a couple of hours there, which delayed filming drastically.
