Fudge fantasies.

What's better than curling up in a cozy hotel room with a handful of fudge?

If you are Momma Reiner's Fudge LLC, there's nothing better. The Pacific Palisades-based company has started peddling its chocolate goodies to hotel companies, signing a deal to put its products on the pillows in the Renaissance Montura Hotel's guest rooms near the Los Angeles International Airport.

Momma Reiner's owner Kimberly Reiner was approached by Montura. The hotel was looking to bring in local products and thought her fudge fit the bill.

"They really were searching high and low for something that was distinctly Los Angeles," she said. "When they came to me, we had the same concept. It was a seaside fudge."

The hotel business, which also includes fudge for banquets, meetings and conferences, has helped Momma Reiner double its business since last year. And she expects growth from hotels to continue, with the company currently in "preliminary discussions with several luxury high-end and boutique hotels in Los Angeles."

Reiner, who worked as an attorney before establishing the fudge company in 2004, isn't depending solely on hotels. Her products currently sell at Black Ink, a stationary store in Pacific Palisades, and she wants to be stocked at more retail stores. She pulled back from that area while concentrating on the hospitality sector. She's also pushing forward with a deal to make the fudge available in catalogs.

Reiner has bolstered her production capacity by securing enough space in a confection factory to churn out fudge for the Montura, any new hotels that might come along, and retail stores.

Reiner believes her fudge will have a fighting chance against the swelling batch of entrants. "What I am seeing is a lot of chocolate that is coming from all these international companies," she said. "You can pick up a piece of fudge, and it makes you think of your childhood. I think the international chocolate is the opposite."
