Aniseed balls or those little rectangular butterscotch thar came individually wrapped. They were similar to werthers originals but much better.

Sherbet pips and jazzies - though not
in the same bag please as the jazzies like to contaminate the pips with their sugar balls! And if there’s a sugar mouse in the window can I have one of those too please?

By the way, do Tooty Frooties exist any more? I was in a newsagent a few weeks back and really fancied some - it was really
well-stocked for confectionery but there were none. If so, how are Jelly Tots allowed to exist but not Tooty Frooties?! The world
is upside down…
