Maybe Maria's candy brand would fit into the "Disgusting English Candy 
Drill" (GR, pp. 114-119)?

"Sugarpova is a premium candy line that reflects the fun, fashionable, 
sweet side of international tennis sensation Maria Sharapova.Maria has 
created her own candy business to offer an accessible bit of luxury, 
interpreting classic candies in her own signature style. A long time 
candy lover with a surprising sweet tooth, Maria is bringing a new level 
of quality to the candy category through fun, unexpected types and 
shapes – with playful names to match. Wrapped up in a beautiful package, 
it's both style and substance, just like founder Maria Sharapova."

Sounds promising.
