Bellwood-Antis student's donut design for sale at doughnut shop
ALTOONA, Pa. (WTAJ) — A student from Meyers Elementary School in Bellwood had her school project come to life.
Fourth-grader Maria Luke created the White Lily, a doughnut filled with marshmallow and topped with mini marshmallows, graham crackers and whipped cream, for a school project that involved each student creating a doughnut and writing a poem about it. Out of the class, Luke and another finalist were invited to Parlor Doughnuts to bring their projects to life.
Parlor staff judged each pastry and voted for the winner, which would become a doughnut for sale on Memorial Day Weekend. The item provided a cool experience for those in the community to see a child's creation come to life.
'It's really exciting to get the kids involved and creating stuff like that,' Chenoa Rice, a Bellwood-Antis parent, said. 'I think it promotes entrepreneurship. Who knows what tastes the best in terms of snacks than our kids?'
The doughnut is on sale on Sunday, May 25th, from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m.
