whatever happened to spangles?

One of our most requested sweets!

They had three different packs : one contained assorted fruit flavours, another was `Old English` flavour, and the third (the favourite of our resident `Spangle-head` was Cola 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!


Promotional Sweets - A Myth Dispelled

When you think of promotional sweets do boring mint imperials come to mind?  

You know... the sort of sweets that you tend to get on hotel reception desks, in conference rooms and at exhibitions.

Some companies seem to think that sticking their branding on boring promotional sweets will help their image with their customers.

We disagree.

After all if you can't make promotional sweets fun and memorable... what promotional giveaway items can you make interesting?  A carrier bag?  Or a mouse mat?  

We don't think so!

Promotional Sweets Your Customers Will Love

Whether your customers are young or old, there's a very good chance that they used to frequent their local sweetshop when they were young.

And that they have fond memories of the sweets they used to buy with their pocket money as a child.

So just imagine how they will feel when you give them a promotional gift of the very same sweets... the sweets they probably won't have seen or tasted for 20, 30 or even 40 years. Just think how you would feel in that situation... you'd love it.

And you'd be sure to remember who gave you those promotional products, wouldn't you?

So don't think of promotional sweets as being just mint imperials or generic fruit boiled sweets. Promotional Sweets With A Difference - Space Dust

Instead think Space Dust (remember that?  the stuff that explodes when you put it into your mouth... it was all huge in the 1970s!), Rhubarb and Custard, Anglo Bubbly Bubblegum, lollipops... the options are almost endless.

And no-one knows more about retro sweets (or retro sweets as promotional sweets) than we do.

Which Sweets Will Work Best For Your Promotional Sweets Requirements?

That's a toughie, because there are so many to choose from.

Fortunately for you we have a shedload of experience of supplying the top high street names with fabulous promotional ideas.  

So even if your requirements are only sketchy, we can help you.

Of course, if you do want conventional promotional sweets in personalised wrappers, or sticks of rock with your logo running through... or lollipops with your company branding on, we can help you with those too.  Not a problem at all.

But if you are looking for something a bit different - cheap promotional items which make cost effective business promotional products, then we can definitely offer you something a bit special.

Can We Supply Promotional Sweets To Match your Theme?

Just try us... and see.  If we can't then nobody can.

Just perfect.

FANTASTIC SERVICE!
Yummy order arrived in two days - that was by second class post too!

Pontefract cakes taste just as I remembered, much better than the modern ones.
