Texan
Toffee Logs
Toffee Treats
mojo's,blackjacks,fruit salad (all used to cost half a penny!)
white mice, chocolate cups,wham bars!!, starbar(you can still buy them!) cola cubes (I cant find ones out now that taste the way the originals used to)

space/moondust (in the little blue packets), I loved whispa's!!!!!!! fox's glacier mints, chocolate ciggies!! there are too many!!!!!!!!!!!!

I used to have an obsession with woolies pick n mix raspberry ruffles!!
there are lots of online retro sweet shops where you can still buy these sweets. If you google something like old fashioned sweets they all come up.
I think they were called "satin pillows" mmm I loved them.
Can any one remember them and can they still be bought.
Oh gosh, a guilty memory has just surfaced.....we used to feed Space Dust to the dog and fall about laughing while he crackled excitedly and wagged his tail like a dog possessed!!
lol@nutgoneflake !!! :-)
I haven't seen the triangle ice block we used to call a jubbly . Used to have to cut it open , it seemed huge and it froze your hands.:-)
Oh , and of course the nice bag of sweets you could choose from the ha'penny selection , taking your time to choose while the shopkeeper got impatient .
Shame on you nutgoneflake!! lol

Bigmamma, you can still get the triangle jubblies!
Morning bigmamma! I was too shy to put anything on the 'favourite ebayers' thread - still feel too new! - so thanks for your vote! xxx

Oh, Refreshers aswell btw. I had a huge cardboard tube sort of pencil case that looked like a huge tube of them. We used to take off the plastic ends and let the hamster crawl through it.

All my 'sweet' memories seem to involve animals......?!
I know psychick, I should feel guilty, but I'm laughing inside just remembering how he used to enjoy it so much!! He was a totally stupid, but gorgeous old fat thing. A totally irreplaceable, bonkers dog!!
morning nutgoneflake , hope you are well . I still like refreshers . :-)
Thanks psychick , I didn't know jubblies were still around .To think , when your little hands squeezed the jubbly yoo hard and it leapt out of its packet onto the ground , and you just picked it up , brushed the grit off it , and just popped it back in ! Ugh .
xx
