If sweets (Haribo, pick n mix etc) are your thing, what’s your favourite

[IHopeYouStepOnALegPiece]

I’m a BIG peach or pineapple Haribo fan but I’m currently addicted to this bag of what can only be crack cocaine. I’ve eaten FAR too many recently

I love dolly mixtures

Haribo fried eggs (which I’m currently working my way through) as the other half lays past out snoring next to me 🥱 were in Lanzarote at the moment and I honestly can’t wait to get home; weather and food have been crap!

Also if anyone can remember those coconut covered mushroom shaped sweets and knows where to find them I’d be over the moon.

Foam mushrooms from Sainsbury’s (own brand).

HEAVENLY.

Forgot blackjacks & fruitsalads best penny chews ever 😆

Vimto bonbons
chocolate raisins
pink shrimps/bananas etc
flying Saucers
cola cubes

Pineapple cubes
Bon bons lemon ,toffee,strawberry ..loved the powdery coating.
Sorry she knows but flying saucers were bleak.👍😁

LTB 😂

Obsessed with sour patch, my dd had a pack and I tried and was hooked, really sweet then the sour at the end. Lovely

Black jacks and fruit salads.
Revels

Tangtastics
Cherry cola Tic Tacs
Liquorice flyers - the tubes with the candy filling.

Tangfastics, Mike and Ike

Co-op own brand jelly mix, great flavours, lovely texture, bonus is they are only 65g, so eating the whole bag is absolutely fine, plus they are only about 70p and usually on a weekly co-op card offer.

Chocolate buttons covered in hundreds and thousands (white and milk choc ones) and chocolate raisins!

Revels are a bloody disappointment now.

I have to say whoever invented squashies (the gummy drumsticks) is a bloody genius who understands that for us millennials it’s the taste of childhood but our teeth are not equipped for the real deal. They get 10/10 from me - give them whatever salary they want.

Tangfastics
Twin snakes
Gummy bears (Lidl happy bears or haribo gold bears)
Jelly cherries (Aldi)
Cola bottles
Fruit pastilles
Wine gums (rowntree only)

DC also like sour patch kids and squashies but they’re safe from me, probably why DC like them!

Haribos Jelly Beans in the original flavour mix are my favourite. I also love their Jelly Babies more than the originals.
Can't go wrong with M&S jelly worms either. I personally don't care for Percy.
I cannot believe I forgot my Haribo crocodiles! Not the fizzy ones, I love the plain ones but only ever see them in France.

Chalky sweets, mainly from Swizzels - Love Hearts, Double Lollies, Fizzers (NOT Palma Violets!). I really love the chalky Lifesavers, but I can't get them here.

I could actually taste that chocolate when I read your description! It was quite unique

There's no beating Jelly Tots, even though they seem a very different shape these days - more domed than the flat ones I remember from years ago!

I gave up smoking last year and fizzy sweets really helped! (didn't want to take up vaping). I like the fizzy cola bottles, sour bears and fizzy laces. Anything non fizzy doesn't quite hit the spot for me.

I know it's not good re the sugar but a year ago I'd spend an evening knocking back a bottle of wine (which I've also massively cut down on) and smoking 20 cigarettes so balance that up against a pack of fizzy laces and it's definitely the lesser of two evils!

I don’t like sweets at all, I think they are gross. I’d much rather have some crisps. However. I do like fudge. Is fudge a sweet? It’s on a pick and mix but so heavy it’s often not worth it.

Dracula fangs, but they have to be the proper chewy ones not the horrible squidgy ones
