My Project

Students struggle and stress over standardized testing each spring. It's long, it's hard, and it takes its toll on students. It's hard for them to sit for so long under very strict conditions while also trying to perform their best on assessments.

Being able to offer them something sweet to help them get through the grueling process can make a huge difference in the process.

These top eight allergen-free soft puff candies can serve as a great option to help students make it through the long hours of standardized testing that they undergo in various classes.

Sometimes, students come to take their assessments and find themselves hungry or thirsty or seeking a snack to tide them over. While this isn't the best option, these sweet candy puffs are a realistic option for them.
