Silvercloud Posted June 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 I always remembered the Rolo's with the very hard toffee centres not like they are now that are very soft. Also Liquorish and aniseed twists, as opposed to the blackcurrent and aniseed that we have now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghostrider Posted June 13, 2013 Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 I have no idea what sweeties are available these days, so probably half of these are still around - Fruit Gums, Fruit Pastels, Tootie Fruities (sp), Spangles, Smarties, Bon Bons, Dairy Maid Chocolate Carmels, Miller's Chocolate Eclairs, Callard & Bowser Carmels. Highland something or other toffee - there was a pic of a Heilan Coo and tartan on the wrapper (that stuff was as hard as slate, but good....), Orkney Fudge various flavours, Pandrops, Glacier Mints, Old Jamaica chocolate - delicious..... 'sweetie fags', 'chocolate sweetie fags'...... and probably best of all, broken easter egg chocolate bought by the 1/4lb from Jeemie Manson's on the street....cheap, cheery, and good -but seasonal.

JGHR Posted June 14, 2013 Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 Smokey bacon flavoured crisps in bags so big you could go elbow deep and with orange coloured 'bacon' flavouring that stained your haunds. 4p per bag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
