Now Look!!!!!
It is not on putting such temptation in front of us poor unsuspecting people. I have just eaten a whole lot of sweet tobacco and it was even better than I remembered. I suppose once we have finished munching our way through our first order we are just going to HAVE to get some more.

Anyway Thank you so much. I honestly did not think they would get here so quickly. Am loving the imps.

Well I can't help it if I am a big kid.

The Independent listed us as the 2nd best e-boutique on the web…and no, it wasn’t alphabetical. We were totally over the moon!

It was my favourite comic when I was young... and the inspiration for the look and feel of A Quarter Of...

whatever happened to spangles?

One of our most requested sweets!

They had two types: one pack contained Assorted Fruit flavours and the other was Old English flavour.

They were also shaped a bit like Tunes with a circular dip on either side...

Sadly not even we can get hold of them anymore!
