please help me find my favourite childhood sweets!

[orangegrape]

i've been trying to find them for years but never have any luck. used to get them in the late 90's. they were really small hard round sweets (about the size of mini smarties?) bright colours and fruit flavours.

i can remember eating them out of a paper bag so i think they were either from a pick and mix or in a big tub in the corner shop.

dm said she thought they were called "millions and trillions" but any google search just brings up millions.

anyone got any ideas?

Or dew drops further down that link.....?

I know the sweets you mean, they are like pips. Were they called fizz bombs google brings up sweets, if you google 90s sweets fizz bombs.

Fizzy Jerkz?

I can remember something brightly coloured and round that you bought out of jars but they were very small balls (not Millions).

they looked like this

Everlasting gobstoppers?

Not Runts?

Gobstoppers?!

Oh, not what I was thinking at all

omg it might be gobstoppers!!

Hurrah.

Dont know about out of jar but you can by the wonka ones on amazon not that i would know

do you know how big they are pickley? i'm going to order some now, i hope it's them!

Marble sized.

I have a slight 90's sweet addiction

Gobstoppers are hard and nearly as big as a marble though. I remember sweets that looked like your picture but were much smaller and you could crunch them.

ahh yes myname i think we are on about the same ones. marble sized is a lot bigger than these hmmm it continues...

Gobstoppers are a lot bigger than a mini Smartie. Runts were much smaller and you could crunch them easily.

Gobstoppers changed colour as you ate them?

just looked at runts and the ones i had were all small round not fruit shaped

I remember sweets which looked like your picture. They had a crunchy shell but bubble gum inside. You could buy them from a sweet shop but also came in the bottom of ice creams. Could this be what you're thinking of?

i know what you're thinking of violet but these were hard all the way through. definitely crunchy if you bit them

searched all the suggestions and no luck yet!

Fruit poppets? Came in little cardboard boxes

Maybe i think marbles are smaller than they are.They are the same size as aniseed balls if you know what they are ?

Climpies?
