Favourite Sweets as a kid
« on: July 19, 2011, 18:53:17 PM »
I just contributed to another thread, where my thoughts were turned back to my childhood, and the joys of enjoying a jubbly (a frozen orange or cherry drink in a triangular container) Lovely Jubbly!!.  And then I thought what a great idea for a new topic, favourite sweets or snacks as a kid.  Here are some of mine:

Banana Toffee
Pineapple Chunks
Toffee Crunch
Sun Pat Hot Roasted Peanuts
Spanish Gold Tobacco
Sherbert Lemons
Beach Balls
Satin Cushions
Sherbert Pips

As you can see I was partial to a boiled sweet still am but they are harder and harder to find in these days of jelly sweets.

So what sweets do you remember loving as a kid?[^]
