Favourite sweet treats that are underated

[00100001]

Poppets for me!

Fairy Satins- they are so pretty

We used to call them 'Spanish'
so did we (grew up in Liverpool)! No idea why!

Most of my faves have been said, but may I give an honourable mention to Thornton's dark chocolate fondant mice - sadly, long-since discontinued.

The fizzy refresher sweets.

Condensed milk from a teaspoon or possibly on a roti
Fruit jellies

Oh god, yy to Caramac and Toffifee.

I love foam shrimps.

Midget gems
Refreshers
Daim bar
Ripple
Licorice catherine wheels

I'm going to kill this thread stone dead
(and I'm turning into my mother)
but....
Fisherman's Friends

I used to like the fake 'tobacco' - it was shredded coconut sweetened and dyed brown.
Also quite liked sweet cigarettes ☺️🤭

Liquorice Catherine wheels

And Spangles, just the 'Old English' flavours - were they in tubes or sort of squared off, like Halls Mentholyptus?
But you can keep the fruit flavoured ones.

Riesens.
Chewits Xtreme Sour Apple.
Dinky Deckers.

Fry's Turkish Delight. Love it.
And I still like a Cadbury's Flake bar. It tastes much the same to me as it's always done. At least they don't advertise it like they used to

Battenburg
Cinnamon bun warm from the oven
Turkish delight
Raspberry sorbet

So many good ones have already been mentioned. My favourites are:

The bags of shrimps and bananas
Egg custards (might have eaten both in the box today and told DH that my mum ate one when she popped round)
Chocolate peanuts
Toffifee
Fruit gums
Morrison’s sweet shop ice cream (candy floss and bubblegum flavour)
Oh and cold ambrosia custard if that counts!

Astro belts and/or fizzy laces

Parma Violet sweets. I adore them. Violet creams are my favourite chocolate.

Strawberry laces
Rose and violet cremes
Coffee cremes
Chewing nuts
Fruit jellies
Riesen
Mint crumbles
Parma violets
