Rocket Fizz - Enrique and Maritza Ruiz


Rocket Fizz

Meet Enrique and Maritza Ruiz, owners of the Bakersfield franchise Rocket Fizz, who will be celebrating their store’s one-year anniversary at The Marketplace on June 17, 2021. Prior to opening their business, Enrique and Maritza both served in the United States Marine Corps. They discovered Rocket Fizz through an Undercover Boss episode and decided to visit the national candy store themselves where they immediately fell in love with the experience of going down memory lane and decided they wanted a store of their own. The Marketplace Bakersfield location has over 2,000 different types of candy, over 500 flavors of soda pop including 50 different flavors of Root Beer and specializes in custom gift baskets that can include novelty candy, soda pop, gag gifts, tint signs, and more. Their best-selling items include their extensive variety of saltwater taffy in over 80 flavors, bottled cane sugar soda pop, tin signs, along with nostalgic candies such as Necco Wafers, Pop Rocks, BarNone Chocolate Bars, and Cherry Mash.
