My Friend Loved Her Gifts
I would just like to say how very happy I was with your service.

One of the items i ordered was for a friend birthday and i was worried it would not reach me time.

I loved the fact I could track my order all the way along.

It arrived when i needed it, my friend loved her gift and so did alot of other people.

Fantastic service,great sweets .

Loved it all. Thank you

Sarah

Whatever Happened To
Wispa?
Born in the 1980's, 20 years later they were gone. Cadburys brought them back for a (very) limited run in 2007. Now sadly they are no more than a memory.

whatever happened to texan bars?

Remember the advert on TV? A Clint Eastwood style cowboy in a spot of bother, captured by some sombrero wearing outlaws. One asks the cowboy, "A last request gringo?"

The cowboy asks for a Texan bar. He chews on it laconically (love that word!) and it takes him so long to eat it that the baddies fall asleep and he escapes!

"Texan... sure is a mighty chew."

Texans made a very brief, limited edition re-appearance in 2005 but we fear they have now gone for good.

Do You Remember... Caramac?
