SOUTHERN HOSPITALITY DANGEROUSLY DELICIOUS DESSERTS OLD LADY GANG www.OldLadyGang.com The Old Lady Gang (OLG) was conceptual- ized in 2016, when husband and wife team, New York City native Todd Tucker and At- lanta, Georgia native Kandi Burruss-Tucker, had the great idea of sharing some of the delicious down home Southern recipes that Kandi was raised on as a child and has come to love as an adult, with the pub- lic. Although Kandi may credit herself for mastering some of the traditional family recipes, she also gives credit where credit is due; to her mother Joyce Jones, aunts Bertha Jones & Nora Wilcox, affectionately known as the “Old Lady Gang,” for teach- ing her a few things in the kitchen.
