Alina was only 7 years old when she had the idea for Zollipops. She was offered a lollipop when she went to run an errand with her father. Her father refused the offer and told Alina that candy would damage her teeth. This sparked the idea of inventing candy that not only tastes great, but is good for your teeth. She would watch YouTube videos on how to make candy and experiment in her kitchen. Her and her dad started making these lollipops that hit the shelves in 2014. This lollipop is vegan, all-natural, and sugar free. This turned into the making of her website Zolli Candy. She now sells her products in major retailers like Walmart, Whole Foods, and Kroger. Alina is a great example for what it looks like to see a problem and seek out a solution. No matter what age, inventions can be made!

This is a perfect example of a young entrepreneur who recognized a problem and developed a way to overcome it. It is so inspiring that Alina came up with the idea for Zollipops at such a young age. It is evident that she has a true heart for entrepreneurship by the passion and dedication she demonstrated when researching and experimenting with her candy. I love how you included the names of large businesses that carry Alina’s product. Her great success serves as motivation for entrepreneurs of all ages today!
