Naughty but nice

Coconut mushroom for me too, or Bounty bars, a bar of Dairy crunch or lovely juicy chocolate raisins.

Peanut brittle or peanuts in chocolate. It's the combination of salty and sweet that's so irrisistible.

Coconut mushrooms, my husband buys them for me occasionally. I eat the white stalk first. I can make one last ages.

Tiffin

Chocolate covered marzipan or coconut ice 'flakes'. Yum yum

real, proper soft nougat - failing that, Turron the hard sort!
Failing that, crystallised fruit, especially the little kumquats.

Walnut whips but only the M & S ones as the other company are so unethical I boycott all their products and that includes L'Oreal and Body Shop at the moment although I suspect they will sell them off now the old French lady who owns the biggest share has died.

If only I could go back in time. There was a little shop in Hill Street, Stroud called Granny Ball's sweet shop. She made everything on the premises and I would love to have a bag full of those Raspberry drops - they were wonderful. I am severely asthmatic and many of the colourings used nowadays make me quite ill so sweets are a very rare treat. I make my own coconut ice, melt chocolate to cover them and thoroughly enjoy the results. Naturally I always get to lick the spoon and scrape the bowl too.
I can still remember peering through the kitchen door in the shop watching Granny Ball heaving huge lumps of warm candy around and slamming it down on the table. She had arms like hams - she must have been incredibly fit.

Chocolate eclairs, Cadbury's fruit and nut. Always hear Frank Muir in my head when I see the ,alter on the shelves!

Thornton's Viennese Truffles... the way the shell collapses in your mouth is divine !

Oh what a decision, Sherbert Lemons v Chocolate Limes, no has to be the Sherbert Lemons although I know already my favourite (yes I admit I do have one) Grand Daughter will whip two out of the jar, sneakily slipping me one and ‘volunteering’ to put my paper in the bin for me ‘to save you getting up, GrandDad!”

Doncha just love ‘em?!

Maple brazils - very difficult to get now except at Christmas.
Licorice comfits - the small ones.
Anything licorice really.
Treacle toffee, yum-yum.

Ah - I've recently given up sugar again, must stop coming back to this thread!

I loved sugared almonds too but sadly my teeth can't manage them now. Plain choc coffee creams for me now, I am lucky as a lot of people don't like them so save theirs for me.

Ginger fudge. There is a very crumbly variety that is delicious

Clarnico's Peppermint Creams. Slightly crunchy outside, and softer mint inside. Closely followed by a Coffee Walnut Whip.

Sugared almonds. My lovely Mum always used to buy them for me at Christmas. Since she has been gone DD has carried on the tradition.

Sherbet fountains - sherbet flying saucers - Mint Aero - Cadbury's Fruit and Nut!!

Toblerone, and Walnut Whips!

Favourites since childhood.

Thorntons milk chocolate champagne truffles. One of my daughters can be relied on to buy a box every Christmas and birthday.

Lemon drops which were so awful they were addictive. I would have to have another one to squirm and shudder all over again.
If it were chocolate it had to be Fry's Turkish Delight.

Liquorice Allsorts, although, I have so lost my sweet tooth now that I could only eat a couple. I cannot remember when I last bought any, but every Christmas a packet appear in my stocking and are much appreciated.

Wine gums every time.

Several others mentioned too including coconut mushrooms, yummy !
I love chocolate brazils too Chewbacca but not that much

I buy liquorice alsorts, in fact I have a packet within arms reach right now even though I'm still in bed. I can never eat just one.

Well, that was three, better stash them away again.

Rum truffles! Love ‘em! And liquorice allsorts. The thought of coconut ice makes me very nostalgic. My father used to buy a quarter for me on his way home if he had been working on a Saturday morning, and we would share it!

Licorice, especially the swirls with the sweet in the middle that has the coloured speckles and which I would always save till last. (Excuse the poor grammar/sentence construction!)

Anything coconut is disgusting!!
