Children's book about the government outlawing candy...?

[NoraC]

A few months ago, I was talking to a teacher about a book his class (maybe grade 6 or 7?)  was studying. It was something along the lines of a society where the government had banned candy. I think the children find a recipe for fudge (or something similar) and they start to make it. I believe it was part of their unit on civics/government. Has anyone heard of this? Can you give me a title or author? Thanks!

Looks like your post was missed so I thought I'd bump it up for attention. 

 

Anyone have anything to share?

Never heard of it. Tried to find it on the Internet, and this thread was the only relevant item that came up. Sorry. I don't know where to look. Can you ask the teacher?
