Brilliant Service
I have just received my first order from you and felt compelled to contact you and say thank you so much for the brilliant service.

How wonderful to be transported back to my childhood by the familiar aromas of all my old favourites, especially the Grays Tea Cakes, which my Nana used to sell in her general shop so many years ago.

Also the Toffee Swirls which my other Nanny used to give to me and my sister every Saturday as a treat.

we have brought back old favourites!
Remember Crispets? And Chelsea Whoppers? What about Lucky Tatties? Well, just as everyone thought these old traditional favourites were long dead and buried, we've brought them back! We swam vast oceans, and climbed mountains to find them and here they are!
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!
