    My current stash of "my", not for sharing, sweets.
    Looks like I'm out of treacle toffees, a visit to Boyes is on the cards.

    Refresher chews on a stick
    Candy cigarettes (usually broken ones as they were a lot cheaper)
    Chuppa chups
    Pontefract cakes

    There's one in there I'm not keen on, I think its the english cream one.

    The salted caramel, treacle toffee and the nutty brazil ones are bloody lovely as well.

    Some canny selections on this thread but I can honestly say not as good as Sacos shop in Concord, Washington
    Been there for donkeys years and has the best selection of sweets I’ve ever seen. For the record, Cinder Toffee is my favourite
