CANDY EMPIRE IN DOWNTOWN NEW YORK CITY -- NOT THROUGH THE HORDES OF CHILDREN STOCKING UP FOR HALLOWEEN, BUT RATHER THAT CHOCOLATE IS GOOD FOR YOU. YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME. DYLAN: EVERYTHING IN MODERATION. WE DO CARRY HEALTHY PRODUCTS AND NONEDIBLE CANDY PRODUCTS, BAGS AND ACCESSORIES, JEWELRY THAT YOU DO NOT NECESSARILY HAVE TO EAT OUT OF. BUT CHOCOLATE HAS MAGNESIUM IN IT, AND SOME OF THEM HAVE LOW SUGAR. WE ALSO CARRY GLUTEN-FREE AND SUGAR FREE. TOM: YOU HAVE GLUTEN-FREE CHOCOLATE? DYLAN: YES. MICHAEL: WHEN YOU DECIDED YOU WANTED TO GO INTO THE BUSINESS, WHY DID YOU PICK CANDY? WERE YOU THINKING ABOUT THE LITTLE MONSTERS OUT THERE? DYLAN: I LOVE CANDY, AND MY PARENTS ALWAYS SUPPORTED THE IDEA OF DO WHAT YOU LOVE. I ACTUALLY MADE MOSAICS AND SCULPTURES OUT OF CANDY. TO ME, DYLAN'S CANDY BARS IS SORT OF A CURATOR OF A MUSEUM, WHETHER YOU PACKAGE IT WELL, YOU CAN LOOK AT IT AND ENJOY THE COLOR. TOM: YOU ARE GOING TO GO TO 14TH STREET, DOWNTOWN, WHERE EVERYBODY WEARS A BLACK T-SHIRT. YOU CHANGE MERCHANDISING WHEN YOU GO TO A DIFFERENT CULTURE, EVEN IN THE SAME CITY. DYLAN: DOWNTOWN IS A BOUTIQUE VERSION OF UPTOWN. IT IS A -- IT IS IN BLACK AND SILVER -- WE ARE IN THE BUILDING. TOM: YOUR FATHER WAS PROBABLY THERE PARTYING HIS BRAINS OUT, RIGHT? DYLAN: I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THAT. THE FIXTURES ARE VERY POP ART AND VERY COOL IN THE AREA. WE HAVE LIGHT UP CANDY CANES THAT SPIN LIKE BARBER POLES, AND ROCK CANDY -- TOM: IS SHE DOING THE RIGHT THING? MORTY: SHE HAS ALWAYS DONE THE RIGHT THING. HER FATHER STARTED IT, BUT YOU ARE CONTINUING IT IN A WAY THAT IS WONDERFUL. PEOPLE WANT TO BE ENTERTAINED MORE SO THAN EVER BEFORE. THE LIGHTS, THE ACTION, THE ENTERTAINMENT, THE THEATER. TOM: WHAT IS THE BIGGEST MISTAKE YOU HAVE MADE? WHAT IS THE BIGGEST -- YOU GO, I SHOULD HAVE LISTENED TO DAD. WHAT IS THE BIGGEST MISTAKE YOU HAVE MADE? DYLAN: NOT FOLLOWING MY GUT PICTURE PEOPLE SAY YOU HAVE TO CARRY THIS PRODUCT OR THIS PRODUCT. BUT IT DOES NOT FEEL RIGHT AND IT DOES NOT SELL WELL. AND IT JUST SITS THERE AND GOES BAD. MICHAEL: WHAT IS IT LIKE TO RUN A SMALL BUSINESS IN NEW YORK? WITH WRENCH RISING AND EVERYTHING ELSE IN THE CITY -- IS IT EASY -- WITH RENTS RISING AND EVERY THING ELSE IN THE CITY -- IS IT EASY TO MAKE A PROFIT THEREBY? DYLAN: IT TOOK 13 YEARS TO EXPAND TO NEW YORK, CHICAGO, L.A., EAST HAMPTON, AND HOPEFULLY INTERNATIONALLY. BUT GOING DOWNTOWN WAS SOMETHING I ALWAYS WANTED TO DO. I ALWAYS WANTED TO OPEN IT SMALLER BECAUSE I ALWAYS BELIEVED IN THE FLAGSHIP BEING THE WOW. WE LOOK AT THE BUSINESS PLAN TO MAKE SURE THE NUMBERS WILL WORK. MICHAEL: DOES THE SMALL STILL WORK IN NEW YORK CITY? ALAN: I THINK SO -- DYLAN: I THINK SO. I THINK IT IS GREAT TO HAVE A PLACE PEOPLE WANT TO GO TO SHOP AND FEEL GOOD. TOM: YOUR FATHER IS EQUIVALENT TO THE ICONS OF THE GENERATION ROBERT REDFORD SPLASHED THIS WEEKEND IN "THE NEW YORK TIMES." HOW IS YOUR FATHER DOING, AND WHAT DOES HE DO NEXT? DYLAN: HE IS SUCH AN ENTREPRENEUR. HE HAS BEEN GOING FOR 45 YEARS. YOU NEVER KNOW. I THINK HE LOVES POP CULTURE, MEDIA, MAGAZINES, RESTAURANTS, FASHION, THE LIBRARY OF FASHION. I CANNOT REALLY REVEAL THAT, BUT I KNOW THAT THE SKY IS THE LIMIT. HE IS SO CREATIVE AND HE SO INSPIRES ME. THIS IS OUR CANDY BUTTON BRACELET. MICHAEL: I WAS HOPING THAT WE COULD ACTUALLY PEEL THOSE OFF. DYLAN: I DID NOT WEAR MY CANDY JEWELRY TODAY. TOM: WE ARE NOT GOING TO GO THERE AND WE CANNOT GET OUT OF THIS FAST ENOUGH. THANK YOU. THE FOREX REPORT -- SAVE ME, PLEASE. I AM LOOKING AT THE RENMINBI,
