Candy Cruz

Shy but passionate home cook Candy (Cassandra Sanchez-Navarro) is content to live a quiet life sharing her culinary talents with her ambitious single mother Lalita, conspiracy theorist grandfather Don Lupe, and her aimless but well-meaning boyfriend Manolo. Forever haunted by the absence of her father, the aspiring chef often avoids the spotlight… but when her family signs her up for popular TV cooking competition Secret Taste, Candy must decide whether to seize the opportunity – or forever live a life of regret. Humorous and heartfelt, Candy Cruz follows one woman’s quest to find herself and the life-changing power of chasing one’s dreams.
