Thanks Again !!
Hello, Just a wee note to say a big thank you for the very swift service!

The chocolate coins are exactly what I`m looking for, and the pirate tag on each wee pouch was a bonus!

I`ll definately recommend your site to family and friends.

Thanks again,

Linda

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!
random trivia
In the run up to last Christmas we were sending out 2 tonnes of sweets per day... that`s a heck of a lot of fizzy cola bottles!
the best comic ever?
