They were penny sweets in white and green wrappers - like black jacks and fruit salads but yummy yummy apple flavour!
I hope hope hope you can help!!

Mintoes Memory
Nuttals produced a MINTOES sweet. they appear to have gone out of fashion, unless your MINTOES are the same product.
The original wrapper was yellow in colour with red edging. The name MINTOES was yellow on a red background. There was also green leaves on each wrapper.

Orange Aero Search
Just a shot in the dark, but I've been trying to purchase an Orange AERO bar in the shops for weeks now. They have all but gone from retail outlets all together. They stopped selling the smaller versions and were only distributing the large style bars for a period but I cannot find them anywhere?
Could you point me the right direction?

Sweet Memory
Hi, my grandmother used to give us sweets called buttermints, but not the crunchy ones you show on your site. These were soft and a bit chalky and melted in your mouth. They were similar to the tiny pastel-coloured mints you sometimes get when leaving a restaurant, but larger and oval shaped and creamy yellow in colour. The name was appropriate - they were made with almost pure butter, sugar and mild mint flavour and they tasted of butter and mint. They were advertised as being fat free but I don\'t see how that can be true. I can\'t remember who made them and haven\'t been able to find them anywhere - any thoughts? Thank you!

Do they still do it??
Milk Tray bar is still available in Aus - known as the snack bar - not to be confused with our version of shortcake biscuit type of snack bar - do you know if the mint cinder toffee covered in chocolate from the 70's is still made - can't locate it? I thought/may be wrong that it was made by something like Welch. Wrapper was green and white striped. I think they also did an orange too - cost 7p per bar when i bought them.

Sweet Memory
My sweet memory is going shopping with mum in the 1970's... When we got to the checkout she would buy a pack of Nestle Animal Bars for me & my brother. This was in the days before Nestle ruined Rowntree macintoch and the only Nestle chocolate you could get was the milk choc bar... in a red wrapper & the still delicous Crunch bar. Anyhow I am rambling... does anyone else remember the Animal bars... they came in packs of 6 I think, and I have wild visions of rubbing the gold foil to reveal which animal was on the centre of the bar... in the same way we all used to rub a kit kat wrapper to reveal the name on the top of each finger.

Delicious Bar made with cream cheese
The Husky Bar was a delicious bar made with cream cheese and had different type of seeds on it. I remember eating this in the late '60s. Do you have any information on this bar such as when they stopped making it or do they still in other countries?

Lemonade Dib Dabs
Tangier than the regular Dib Dabs, I have only managed to spot them ONCE since being a kid.
The packaging was similar but yellow and green rather than yellow and red.
Mouth-puckeringly tangy.
Where are they now?!

I have been looking for years for a sweet called " Nutty". It came in a clear brown plastic wrapper and was fudge covered in peanuts. Would you please let me know if I can still get hold of this or if it is still being made.

Whatever happened to Cadbury's Wispa?

Cadbury's replaced the whispa with the dairy milk bubbly sadly...not quite the same!

Aaaaaah I remember the Animal Bars, I'm sure there was always a little puzzle on the inside wrapper as well, such as a wee maze......I'm getting old ;)
