my era i suppose

do you remember PEZ

Disgusting things them Old English, as is the anomalous liquorice thing in midget gems. Nowt against liquorice, but with fruit ffs?

worst sweet ever for me was betta bars basically rice krispies held together with a brown syrup, disgusting

Zooli bars

Is old English the tobacco thing. I tdied to make it. Shaved coconut,cocoa powder and icing sugar?  DI'd not tasteroid right.

That would be Spanish Gold, zorro. Rank.

Spanish gold was the mutts nuts!
Cabana...moist coconut mixed with glace cherry pieces,soft toffee on top of the coconut all covered in milk chocolate, same size as a topic and REALLY SWEET!!

I remember Aztec bars with the purple wrapper, but can't remember what they tasted like. Did they have raisins in them?

Lyons maid king cone and king stick.. anyone remember them??

Frys Turkish Delight,peppermint cream and chocolate cream,is Picnic still going?
Dairy crunch.

Bon Bons

The old pick n mix use to have some nice sweets as well

Texan bar .....and they can reshow the TV advert , nothing there to upset the snowflakes.

Spangles
Milk Tray Bar

Burton's beef potato puffs.....shut it snowflakes that was the product name .......crushing a bag of Roysters gets pretty close.

KP Rancheros are in Ireland but not the Uk.....I have had a box from there on t'web

Magowans Penny Caramels.

Paynes Poppets.

is the box of neopolitans still going,  and i havent seen my fav at xmas time years back, black magic

Whenever I tell people about Burton's potato puffs (the plain ones were lovely and used to leave crumbs all over your fingers, which you could lick off) they think I'm mad, but they came in white blue and red wrapper, and I wish they would bring them back.

Texan bar cheaper than mars bar etc but excellent,basicaly nougat covered in choco

Aztec were like a mars bar with a nougat instead of choco filling but not sure what they tasted of

Mars bar has a nougat filling also 1tp, I think the main difference is that Mars tasted much maltier than Aztec.

Picnic still going thank fook ribero, as are Turkish Delight and peppermint creme. Not sure about dairy crunch though!

Aztec wernt around to long same price as mars bar and not as good, there were 4 imo,all similar price
1st place mars bar
2nd marathon
3rd topic
4th Aztec

topics were very nice but even in them days a lot smaller than the others,with todays size inflation,topics would be invisible,

Nutty bar...for peanut lovers

Fruit flavour Polo

walnut whip still going ? caramac?

nutty bar,sweet and sickly

both still going elis. You can also get the walnut whips without the walnut  now!

Topics still out there 1tp. They look bigger than a Mars bar now, mind you, so does a bourbon.

the fresh air in a  mars bar wrappermyou could squeeze a quarter of sour apples in ,

I remember a competition many moons ago on the inside of a mars bar wrapper

HBs two and two. 9 squares\mmmmmm

Used to enjoy a Fuse bar.

Not a sweet or choc bar but used to like Lincoln biscuits, now only made in Ireland apparently.

Mixed up Frys five centres  with fiveboys, another choc bar.... The other bar might be a crispy caraMel, like a toffee crisp, dark cchocolate instead of milk and a dripped line of milk choc over the top?

Had a search on ggoogle.  Treets, old jamaica, spira, fuse, log 3, secret, Tiffin,loot, super mousse, cabana,drifter,golden crisp, rally, rumba, golden cup, bliss, applejack,medley, coffee crisp,, applause, space dust.
We still have mars bars? Lowest common denominator.
Fuse bars were really good? Better than toffee crisps, makes no sense why so many bars disappeared.

golden cup

HGS
both still going elis. You can also get the walnut whips without the walnut now!


I think that's taking the "may contain nuts" warning a step too far. No matter.

Am I correct in thinking that there used to be a coconut Revel lurking in the 'King of All Sweets' range? And why hasn't anyone posted an image yet of some European confectionary called Shitto or Vagmuff as is usually de rigueur round here?

Oh, and Lanky Larry.

Fullers (from Kilmarnock) mad a truffle bar which came in two bars like a bounty in a turkish delight coloured wrapper. It was the best chocolate bar ever made! They also did other bars including marzipan and coconut.It was always the truffle bar that ran out in the few shops that stocked them. They went out of business in the early 1970's. Anyone else remember these bars?

yes done them salty,dark chocolate as I remeber

treets became minstrels did they not ?

anyone remember ' big one ' . advert-  'if you like a big one, sticks out a mile'.

Thought Treets became M&Ms?

are m&ms just smarties for american market? think smarties had too much sugar in one of the colours, possibly orange nes.

Munchies were the dogs.

The kids with money bought them - only a very rare treat for me.

Anglo bubbly

same company also done spooks a black chewing gum with a hole in the middle the flavour in both only last about 60s of chewing  as any mentioned hubba bubba is that still on the go?

firemen's hoses (red liquorice stuff)
black jacks and fruit salad
penny teacakes (biscuit and marshmallow in chocolate - may have been made by burtons)
beech nut chewing gum
those vending machines where every fourth or fifth turn you got a free go

I still buy black jacks andvfruit salad.     home bargays. (predictive texts, bargays, leaving it in?) home bargains the store. Fruit salad tastes like Iran bru.  Irn brie. IRN BRU .
Black magic chocs still exist too. 
Jameson ruffle bars  still trading.

Anyone remember Criss Cross, a cheese savoury snack from the early 80's.

Two sticks of crispy lattice shaped covering with a cream cheese inner.

Lovely.

i can remember a mint chocolate bar that i think was called ice breaker

was there a Mint Cracknell?

ice breaker yeh,not for me,

not be confused with worthingtons cans of ice breaker which were rocket fuel

Banjo twix rip off,2 fingers not real chocolate but same price,red packet  was fake dark,blue was fake milk,had a really catchy singsong advert which i can still remember 'banjo  banjo the one for me and you' horrible eat though.

What bandit biscuits and yoyo both named after some of the loons on here

Neapolitans (chocolate)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to navigationJump to search
Neapolitans are individually wrapped square/rectangular pieces of chocolate in assorted flavours. They have been produced in several different flavours and by numerous confectionery companies. They have been served by hotels and coffee shops (often with a cup of coffee) and when used for promotional purposes may feature packaging with personalised branding.

Terry’s Neapolitans
Terry's of York, England, first produced Neapolitans in 1899.[1] The company was sold to Kraft Foods in 1993 and Terry's Neapolitans were discontinued in 2005 when their York factory was closed.[2] The flavours were:[3]

Milk Chocolate (Blue)
Plain Chocolate (Red)
Mocha (coffee flavoured plain chocolate) (Brown)
Cafe Au Lait (coffee flavoured milk chocolate) (Turquoise)
Orange Milk Chocolate (Orange)
Orange Plain Chocolate (Pink)
Terry's also produced a selection of mint-flavoured neapolitans and cream-filled neapolitans. They would occasionally be sold in alternative packaging such as jars.[citation needed]

Similar boxed mixed assortments currently in production include Marks and Spencer's Neapolitans and Lindt Napolitains.

According to Wikipedia, Terry’s Neapolitans were available in a range of flavours, each with a particular colour wrapper, including:



Milk Chocolate (Blue)
Plain Chocolate (Red)
Mocha (coffee flavoured plain chocolate) (Brown)
Cafe Au Lait (coffee flavoured milk chocolate) (Turquoise)
Orange Milk Chocolate (Orange)
Orange Plain Chocolate (Pink)

Anyone mentioned cabana fizzbomb the was an ipso something or other and some kind of moosebar and an ice drink called Keeko

Pacers...which were mint flavoured opal fruits.

Some classics on here
https://www.google.com/search?q=rude+chocolate+wrappers&rlz=1C1FLDB_enGB511&...

I liked them teacakes by the quarter,and them little bits of toffee covered in choco,chocolate nuts were they called

What about Highland toffee and the arrow bar
Sure the moose bar had a picture of moose''s head on the wrapper

@Tom Salt I remember those bars I'm sure I got toothache after eating one on a school trip to Lowther wildlife park when I was about 6. Bornville was or is a dark chocolate bar and the only sweet I hated eating back then and only because of the mess a snowball

Bonfire  toffee
Golden  cup...VER sweet  made my teeth itch

Aero orange

Still out there, as are Munchies.

Toffo and sherbet dip

Bought a sHerbet fountain today, still being sold. 25 p.  plastic cap, sealed. Ate too mmuch tlday. Caknot face it.

1TP You're think of chewing nuts. Taste great but pull your fillings out, obviously this is now an expensive pastime.

Chewits

yep chewing nuts,always classed them in same bracket as the tea cakes
remember the bubbly you used to get in football cards disgusting

Aztec bar came out in 1967 and was discontinued in 1976,
described as a mix of nougatine and cramel,

talking of bubbly gum anyone remember them little bags of gold you got and it was a little nugget of gold flavoured chewy

gobstoppers

When young the gobstoppers seemed the size of a cricket ball and would take a fortnight to eat.

I thought the Aztec bar was a perennial winner of this competition.

think it was a bar you just tried because it was there,

Aztec and mars bar on the table, one choice not many would have went for the Aztec bar, imo

Anyone remember a 'pyramint' dar kchoc pyramid shape filled with minty goo?
or Cabana, coconut and dried fruit covered in choc?
Texan was my favourite though.

No votes for these, hastily removed, Easter chocolate treats?

Seemingly banned forever henceforth, lest their presence on the shelves might understandably create a Global Race-War.
