do you remember?

Space Dust was just totally awesome… remember pouring it into your mouth by the sachet-full to feel it explode away? If you closed your mouth, it kind of reverberated through your head, but if you opened your mouth, it was extra loud…

Sherbet Fountains

£2.97

for 8 tubes

Sherbet Fountains - One of our favourite sweets ever, and such a classic. If you need your memory jogging, they consist of a yellow tube filled with white zingy sherbet. They used to be in a cardboard tube and have the liquorice stick poking out, but the whole shebang is now encased in plastic.

In my time you were supposed to be able to suck the sherbet through the liquorice stick/straw, but I never managed this as it got all soggy and gooey. I would knock most of the sherbet back neat, and then finish the liquorice off by dipping in the remaining sherbet. It was totally ace!

Or, even better, would you prefer a whole box of Sherbet Fountains?

If so, you`re in luck!
