    A group of us were talking about these the other day. Please tell me you can still buy them – Christmas has not been the same for some years without the Newberry Fruits!

  2. Emma remembers: -

    Any idea if they still make/ sell newberry sweets

  3. C. H remembers: -

    Are you sure they’re not the same as the sweets now sold under the name York Fruits – my Gran calls those Newberry fruits.

One of my mother’s favourites was Meltis Newberry Fruits, but haven’t seen them for quite some time. Can you help??? R.H

  1. Gill Lewis remembers: -

    In the Bedfordshire & Luton Archives and Records service (!) it states that they aquired the archives of Meltis Plc following the liquidation of the firm in 1996. (Put Meltis New Berry fruits into Google search!) At end of article there it states thast trade name was purchased by Hosta UK of Oxfordshire who became Hosta Meltis Ltd. Do read article if you’re interested, it’s quite sad really! I’m going to search for Hosta Meltis to see if there is any New Berry fruits info there!

  1. Mrs Jennifer Mott remembers: -

    I would also like to know what happened to Meltis Newberry Fruits, are they still made? If so, where can they be purchased?

  2. Michael remembers: -

    In case youre still wondering, Meltis who made NewBerry Fruits closed in 1996.

    Shame eh?

  5. Phil Glew remembers: -

    Meltis went bankrupt about 8 years ago. No other manufacturer has decided to pick up production of NewBerry Fruits. Sadly. :(

  6. ROLFE remembers: -

    I to have been looking for years for a supplier of Newberry Fruits. Did you find one and if so can you let me know.
    Regards Rolfe

    Perhaps someone could persuade a manufacturer to make the sweets. They were totally different to anything that exists today, and there would surely be a market for them.
