Jazz Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 2 shops have opened near me, just doing the jars of sweets, so there must be a demand for them. when I go to the cash and carry, jars are so cheap, so I have to stay away from there lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

celeste Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Rarely No Tablet !, well, home made is usually better than shop bought anyway. How to make Tablet, I'd disagree with the bit about when it's ready, it should form a fimish ball in the water, if it doesn't it won't set, my uncle made Tablet once, when it didn't set he put it in the fridge, next morning he gave his kids some away with them to school, come playtime though the Tablet had melted and covered all their books in a sticky sugary gloop ....so beware, always boil your Tablet properly. I think the only type of sweetened condensed milk you can get is Fussells, mmmmmm, I used to sit with a tin of Fussells and eat the whole lot.

I've just ordered some from ebay but it's been renamed Kramola Fizz I've not seen it, it was my daughter, we were going to go today but got caught up elsewhere. I used to love cremola foam my favourite was wee tatties or lucky tatties which had a wee toy in them. I could go on but I'm shoving on the pounds just thinking about them Terri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angel155 Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 jane i will see if i can find some sweets my mum got me.. they are called "toxic waste" if you manage to keep one in your mouth for a minute you are doing well There is a sweetie stall at Beeston horse market that sells toxic waste. Lauren loves them..........and surprisingly enough, so does Pablo my horse As a kid, I used to love floral gums and cherry lips And why are pear drops you can buy in bags in supermarkets only pink and yellow? I am sure there used to be white ones too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
