Four children have been chosen to compete in a national competition to find the tastiest confection in the country. Who will invent a candy more delicious than the Oozing Crunchorama or the Neon Lightning Chew?
Logan, the Candymaker's son, who can detect the color of chocolate by touch alone?
Miles, the boy who is allergic to merry-go-rounds and the color pink?
Daisy, the cheerful girl who can lift a fifty-pound lump of taffy like it's a feather?
Or Philip, the suit-and-tie wearing boy who's always scribbling in a secret notebook?
This sweet, charming, and cleverly crafted story, told from each contestant's perspective, is filled with mystery, friendship, and juicy revelations.

This is a wonderful book with lots of funny twist and cute characters! Everybody must read this book. (It is more realistic than 'Charlie and the chocolate factory".
OMG THIS IS THE BEST BOOK EVER!!!!!! SUCH A PAGE TURNER ITS SOO INTRIGUING!
I hope to read this book. My friend read it said it was fantastic and that it was one of her favorite books! My mom bought it for me because alot of people recomended it to me and it looks really interesting!
This book is okay although I think it is a bit of a copy of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory I mean why doesnt the owners son just get to be automatically the candymaker.. that part makes no sense to me!!!
love love love
Pretty good! To many pages. Took a week to read.
it is a little long but it is an amazing book. I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have this book and it is sooooo good, I love how they change perspectives right when it starts getting actiony! I end up to love all the characters and to many plot twists for me to count!
This book is really crazy it has it's ups and downs people pretending to be another person kids stealing the secrete recipe that is just wrong but at the end it all turn out great.
