http://www.people.com/article/zollidrops-alina-morse-10-year-old-invented-candy-served-white-house-easter-egg-rollThere will only be one type of candy served at this year's White House Easter Egg Roll and it was invented by a 7-year-old.
The candy is zollipops. Its inventor, Alina Morse, now 10, came up with the idea to create a lollipop that's actually good for your teeth three years ago.
"I love candy but I always knew it was bad for my teeth so that's why I created zollipops," Alina, a 5th grade student from Wolverine Lake, Michigan, tells PEOPLE.
