Ooh white jazzies please. Thank you.

Myfridgeiscool · 01/11/2025 18:11

Spearmint pips please or candy sticks please.
It's handy that I can scoff these ‘virtually’ as my blood sugar level would not be happy.

Blackcurrant liquorice bonbons please

barbismyfriend · 01/11/2025 18:15

Midget gems please!

Too hard to choose one. We get the Tesco pick n mix in the cups every now and then so you know the upfront cost and no remortgaging the house at the till.

faves:
those bobbly blackberry/raspberry jelly sweets
haribo rhubarb and custard
those red/pink jelly bottles with the white back
fudge
liquorice (not black)
fizzy pink and blue bottles
Cheap smarties

If you can go back to the 90s, those white chocolate skulls with the bright red goop inside.

Otherwise, icy cups.

Wgw1 · 01/11/2025 18:26

What a fab thread. All the longing of childhood sweets is making me hungry. Peanut brittle for me please. I’ll take the banana if pb not available or jazzies. Thank you

I can’t decide between foamy mushrooms or powdery milk bottles 🤔

BigGirlBoxers · 01/11/2025 18:37

Ooh, yes. Powdery milk bottles! They were heaven. (And very healthy, too, on account of all the milk.)
