    Those were in fashion about 10 years ago weren't they? I think you need to be ahead of the trends to make money. Can't see how this could be a winner, IMHO. Old hat.

    I've been to two weddings this year, both couples in their 30 ' s both had sweet carts, it's not old at all.

    I would say your friend would need to stand out more.

    Go on instagram and check out the American people doing it they go all out, chocolate covered fruit oreos, cake pops. Rice Krispy bites, it's never ending.

    Just booked a candy Ferris wheel for our wedding; 16 "carts" with assorted sweets. �� I think this sort of thing is most popular in the wedding scene
