This intent of this legislation sponsored by Del. Peace and Sen. Favola was to allow for confectionery food products (read: sweetened food products) to be manufactured and sold in Virginia. This legislation created that license to manufacture and sell those products. This intended to represent a number of example companies such as those making cupcakes, cakes, cheesecakes, jams, jellies, ice creams, sorbets, yogurts, puddings, gelatins, etc. The current definition does not limit confectioneries to "baked goods and candies", but we have been informed that enforcement may be limiting certain subcategories of confectionery. We would like to see this regulation either specifically list products such as frozen desserts, custards/puddings, jams/jellies; or specifically left so as to not limit the type of food products due to the wide nature of sweetened confectionery dessert products. The enforcement of the regulation should specifically not restrict the sale of any of the products listed above as was the intent of the legislation originally in the General Assembly.
