Nucky Thompson Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 I was down in North Berwick this morning and came across a right old fashioned sweet shop with loads of those big jars of sweets. I bought myself a quarter of Cola Cubes and a quarter of Sour Plooms. They were the proper Cola Cubes with the soft chewy bit in the middle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P-Dizzle Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 Someone bought me this when I was 5. I used to insist that my mum bought the miniature Dairy Milks so I could put them in it, even though they were far more expensive. I had a real thing for dispensed sweets. I took my Yoda Pez dispenser to Primary School everyday, Cherry were the best flavour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redm Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 Floral gums (I remember being the only person I knew who liked them...) and their cousins, the Cherry Lips.... Milk gums... ...and those weird wee chocolate cup things that should have been plasticky and horrible but were actually really great.... And last but not least, the weird chewy and slightly sticky but floury teeth and gum things... EDIT: Forgot the Spira...yum... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
