Tooty Frooty Scoox
|
|
Tooty Frooty Scoox - These tasty laces are halfway between Bootlaces and Pencils.... but with a ridged texture, and a lovely sour kick. They're delicious!The Tooty Frooty flavour is really lovely... they get a big thumbs up from us here!

Vimto Scoox
|
|
Vimto Scoox - A thicker (but shorter), fizzy, sourer version of the Vimto Bootlaces.... but every bit as tasty. These are delicious - you get an initial kick with the outer layer of sugary fizziness, but then that melts into that lovely smooth blackcurrant Vimto-ey taste that we all know and love. Vimto is just the most comforting taste in the world...

Barratts Jelly Babies
|
|
Barratts Jelly Babies - Not made by Bertie, but we can't tell the difference in the taste. For some of you, it's Bassetts or nothing, but for others, a Jelly Baby is a Jelly Baby - so we thought we'd give you the choice!

Barratts Spogs (aka Jelly Buttons)
|
|
Barratts Spogs (aka Jelly Buttons) - no we did not know these were called Spogs either (if you know of any other names for them please let us know!).They are the blue and pink aniseedy sweets out of liquorice allsorts - the ones you either head straight for or avoid like the plague (a bit like Marmite - love it or hate it - except you don't get marmite in liquorice allsorts!!!)Apparently Spogs are also known as Horse Cakes. How strange is that?

Bassetti
|
|
Bassetti - A real British classic - a firm favourite with those hardcore liquorice-loving fiends out there. Lovely shiny hard sticks of rich black liquorice, and one of our best-selling sweets. Now (getting the anorak out now), did you know that liquorice started being grown seriously in the UK back in the 1500s and was originally grown only in Pontefract, Yorkshire (yes, hence Pontefract Cakes!), due to its rich loamy soil. They take their liquorice so seriously in the town of Pontefract that they have a Liquorice Festival there every year - how cool is that?
