I love a bag of sweets to enjoy while im watching a film. I know I work with them all day long but its still fun to come home and enjoy a bag of your favourite sweets once in a while.

Usually, I will make a pick and mix bag up to take home with me to share over the weekend!

Why cant you buy a quarter of sweets (250g) at Britishcandy.com?

We sell most retro sweets in 5′s, 10′s or in 100g bags simply to allow the customer to have more variety for their money! If we sold a quarter of sweets (250g) you would only get 4 bags of sweets for a 1kg order. You would get around 10 bags of sweets from us!

I don’t know about you, but I think that UK sweets are the best sweets in the world. We have thought up some really unforgettable sweets and lollipops. Sweets have come along way from bon bons and boiled sweets. We have popping candy, chewy bars, jelly sweets, the list goes on and on.

No other country in the world has sweets like us!

What qualifies as an unusual sweet? The shape, colour, texture? Heres our top 5 unusual sweets.

1. Flying Saucers
Strange papery discs filled with zingy sherbet. The edible paper shell desoves in your mouth leaving the zingy sherbet on your tongue.

2. Milk Teeth
I don’t think this needs an explanation! Chewy foamy sweets shaped like false teeth!

3. Chocolate Icy Cups
To me, these are unusal because you get a strange ‘cold’ sensation in your mouth when you bite in to one. Its hard to describle, its not a minty taste but somehow a cold taste!

These are my favourite unsual sweets, what are yours?
