| stunning hand made sweets! |
| We have a superb selection of handmade boiled sweets, made especially for us by a traditional sweetmaker in Scotland (he’s amazing)… the flavours are to die for, and the colours are as bright and intense as gemstones. We offer old favourites like Violet Buds and Rhubarb and Custard, and more modern ones like Iron Brew Humbugs. They make stunning gifts! |

| check out the brand new a quarter of decade pages |
Do you just love to reminisce about the good old days?
The days when life was simpler... when the highlight of the week was a trip to the local sweetshop, or the delivery of your copy of the Beano, or the triumph of successfully slipping a whoopee cushion under your Auntie Rita? |
|
If so, then come and visit our new Decade Pages: we've started a bank of reminiscences from the 50s and 60s covering all aspects of life then, from food to books, to television to toys.
The aim is to develop it into an ever-growing bank of people's memories. And don't forget - everyone is welcome to contribute their very own piece of history... how cool is that?
To see them, click here for the 50s, and here for the 60s! |

mouth-watering turkish delight
...direct from the heart of Turkey!
We couldn't find Turkish Delight we really loved, so we had it made especially for A Quarter Of in the very bosom of Turkish Delight - Konya in Turkey... hoorah! It's really stunning (especially the nutty ones that come dusted in creamy coconut flakes), and comes in the grooviest little boxes ever!
Here are some of the delicious flavours you can enjoy:
Hazelnut and Coconut Turkish Delight
Pistachio Pasha Delight Roll (Pasha is divine - a creamier version of Turkish Delight... try it!)
Chocolate and Hazelnut Turkish Delight
... and lots lots more! See them all here! |
