Koochikoo is the world's first and (still) only organic, sugar-free candy.

The secret is in the tapioca base which is 60-70% as sweet as cane sugar. It has a soft, honey-like texture that coats your mouth and tricks your tastebuds into thinking it’s sweeter than it actually is.

These lollipops and drops are fully vegan/plant-based, gluten-free, Kosher OU, free from the FDA’s top 9 allergens, and lower calorie than sugar to boot. AND they’re a zero-point snack on Weight Watchers and suitable for most other diets too.

Overly processed high-intensity sweeteners like maltitol, stevia, or monk fruit? Sugar alcohols? Nowhere to be seen. Which means no tummy troubles or digestive upset.

If you’re sick of sugar, want only the best ingredients for you and your family, and like to support family-owned products, you've got a friend in Koochikoo.

Use coupon code SWEETNESSS for 20% off your first purchase through Amazon.

Three Macaroni KID publishers have been working part-time as Papa Pals for the last few months. What's a Papa Pal, you ask? Put simply, a Papa Pal works part-time, usually, less than 10 hours a week on a flexible schedule helping people in their local community who need assistance with small tasks or are in need of companionship.

Here is what Kara from Macaroni Kid - Fayetteville has to say about her experience as a Papa Pal.

"As a Papa Pal, there is no limit to the number of visits you can complete or the amount you can earn. I received payment for my visit and gas mileage reimbursement within a couple of days of my visit. Helping others makes me feel great and the flexibility of Papa works so well with my busy schedule. To me, it's the ideal part-time job for a parent."
