We remember when they were launching their&＃160;kickstarter campaign&＃160;back in 2014. Time flies when you&＃8217;re having fun, selling candy to sleep-deprived undergrads with a sweet tooth jones for peanut butter cups and gummy bears to fuel a long night of studying. The Sweet Shoppe was a brilliant startup idea and it has been a success&＃8230;let&＃8217;s hope it&＃8217;s here to stay and will become a campus landmark and role-model for future student-run businesses at WashU. Poets & Quants featured the Sweet Shoppe on its site following the selection of co-founder Jessica Landzberg as one of the Best & Brightest Class of 2017 Undergrads. Be sure to read the P&Q story&＃160;here. Landzberg told P&Q that the idea for the candy story was inspired by her visits to her older sisters when they were students at the University of Rochester where there was a campus candy store. &＃8220;The hardest part was making it legitimate,&＃8221; she says. &＃8220;We had to file as an LLC, and we had to get many, many licenses, because we&＃8217;re selling food. We had to make sure we were doing everything by the book &＃8211; getting our licenses and filing taxes as a business.&＃8221; Check out the&＃160;Sweet Shoppe&＃8217;s website&＃160;for news about the second generation of owners and their plans for next year.
