You can get quite a few bits from amazon!

I know that Tesco have a section dedicated to American foods! Although they never seem to have any Reece's Pieces, just the cups.

PinkDaydreams · 06/10/2020 17:13

Tesco, I'd never even thought to look there thank you!
I know I want to buy baby ruth and I'm on the hunt for mint twinkies. The shop in town sells the mint twinkies but they're nearly £20!!!!!

Never seen anything as specialist as mint twinkies in the supermarket, just regular twinkies

Houseplanted · 06/10/2020 17:18

B&M often have American sweets and for reasonable prices.

NeutralJanet · 06/10/2020 17:19

B&M have a few American sweets. Don't bother with Twizzlers though, they're horrible and tasteless.

MostIneptThatEverStepped · 06/10/2020 17:19

Lidl often has Reese's products.

Janevaljane · 06/10/2020 17:20

I always buy mine from Tesco.

PinkDaydreams · 06/10/2020 17:24

I was only in b&m this morning, I didn't think to look there thank you! Lidl, I've got one near by so will have a look. I'm seen normal twinkies in home bargains but DH wants mint ones Hmm
Thank you for the website link too. I'll try get what I can from real shops then go online.

I just want Reese's pieces! If anyone has a tip off please share! 👍🏽

RyvitaBrevis · 06/10/2020 17:29

My local Spar has an American candy section and sometimes has things Tesco doesn't. I've never seen a mint Twinkie in the UK though!

BleepingSausages · 06/10/2020 17:34

Twinkies😷 All else failing try various supermarkets for the really cheap trays of cupcakes, they taste really similar.

FedUpAtHomeTroels · 06/10/2020 17:38

B&M by us has Twinkies and Twizzlers. Costco has Jelly bellys.
Aldi had Twinkies too, I got some for my son.
I got Red vines on Amazon.

www.candycraftderby.co.uk they’re a market stall in derby, but i’m pretty sure they do delivery. they have a massive selection of american sweets and drinks at a pretty reasonable price. my boyfriend is forever ordering stuff from there.

IHaveBrilloHair · 06/10/2020 17:44

I've seen random bits in Chinese Supermarkets if you can get to one.

DoneAdulting · 06/10/2020 17:47

LA Bites website is amazing, I spent £60 there last month and got two massive boxed full of American food.

bobblesandbows · 06/10/2020 17:48

I've seen Reese's pieces in Poundland.

FedUpAtHomeTroels · 06/10/2020 17:58

B&M also have Mike and Ikes original flavours my favorite.

PinkDaydreams · 06/10/2020 18:30

You can get red vines in Tesco and Costco sell the massive jars of them. 

@PinkDaydreams Tesco, Asda, Sainsburys, Costco and occasionally wilko stock American sweets.

2020nymph · 06/10/2020 18:35

Oh, and check out the food hall in a few garden centres.

Bananaman123 · 06/10/2020 19:37

Literallu american sweets website www.americansweets.co.uk

Used a lot and prices reasonable, recommend the peppermint bark popcorn thats in sale

treeeeemendous · 06/10/2020 20:04

I've used American fizz a few times. Twinkies are light so postage may be reasonable

PinkDaydreams · 06/10/2020 20:09

I was in Sainsbury's yesterday and today and didn't think to look there either! 🤦🏻‍♀️
