What's your favourite sweets?

Had a chat with a friend earlier about this and after a bit of thinking I decided Maynards sport mixture were up there with pear drops a close second.

Lemon bon bons. I still ask for them in the newsagents by the quarter. I will never buy 100g of them.

Dark chocolate raspberry M&Ms. Only ever seen them in an American importers shop in Hong Kong.

Those, or chocolate drops covered in hundreds and thousands - the ones made with cheap and nasty chocolate. Jazzies I think they're normally called. I can eat those by the bucketload - preferably out of the fridge

That the mix with pretzels, peanut m&m's, little biscuit thingys and almonds? Because they are the perfect sweet/sour mix of all time! Snack Mix

Otherwise, Fruit Pastiles after spending some time in the fridge are my current favourite...
