Do You Remember Spangles And Walnut Whips?

[trt]

There was an article in my paper today about sweets that used to be popular.
Fry's Five Centres, and chocolate Creams, Toffo etc, and the potato crisp with a blue salt bag inside!

What were those twigs of a branch called that you sucked and they went like a yellow mush, was it something like monkey sticks??

Those were the days of Dolly mixtures; Swizzles: Refreshers; Arrow bars; Spanish; Duncan cream sticks etc

I loved toffos. And toffets. Does anyone remember Pacers? Green and white stripes minty, chewy things.

I also remember when walnut whips had a walnut top and bottom too! The chocolate casing was piped rather than moulded too! And they used to come with either milk or plain chocolate, and you could choose between vanilla or coffee flavoured filling.

Was it Kelloggs Cornflakes that had cut-out masks and other things on the back of the package?

I loved rainbow sherbert you got in a bag out of the tub in the Newsagents.

You can still get Caramac.

What were those little lemon coloured pip like sweets called? You would get loads of them as they were only tiny.

Eve, they were sherbet pips.

I miss Aztec and Cabana bars
