Local kids get their chance at fame today. More than 600 area kids came out to Daffin's Chocolate Factory in Farrell to be the next "kid in the candy store." The winner will appear in Daffin's commercials, radio, and print ads, and will even get a trip for four to Disney World. Just trying out was a sweet deal for the kids.
"BECAUSE I LIKE THE CANDY, I LIKE THE CANDY SHOP, AND I WANNA BE LIKE CHARLIE FROM WILLIE WONKA."--Robbie Simmons Candidate
"MOST OF THE KIDS ARE ACTUALLY DAFFIN'S CUSTOMERS. THEIR PARENTS WERE CUSTOMERS WHEN THEY WERE CHILDREN AND SO WE'RE LOOKING FOR THE SAME THING IN THEM."--Diane Daffin Daffin's Chocolate Factory Owner
Kids ages five to nine could compete for the title.
