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.

our customers say...

Just a big thank you

Just a big thank you my first order came next day.

It`s a brilliant shop just so happy I can get all the sweets I used to get at school.

I used to get them lunch time and home Tim from school especially toffee crumble thanks so much for a great service outstanding.

I will be using this shop all the time now and recommending it to all my friends

Best regards

Scott.

Oh my God. Mmmmmmm.

Oh my God. Mmmmmmmmmmmmm.

I love this website.

I`m sitting watching TV with a paper bag full of my all-time fave sweets after having stumbled upon you a couple of days ago and placing a super quick order.

I will be telling all my friends about this website and coming back... great gift idea too.

Thanks!

Linzi

Tasty as i remember !!

Got my goodies today, all as expected and tasty as I remember them.

Thanks for great service even to the wilderness of France

Dan

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.

Can`t wait to start on the other sweeties, but am supposed to be giving them away as gifts!

Will be making another order soon.

Thanks again.

FANTASTIC SERVICE!

Deanna.

I can`t wait to see the faces at the `Class of 59` reunion.

Just to say thank you - for the prompt and efficient service and for the fabulous box full of memories.

I can`t wait to see the faces at the `Class of 59` reunion.
