Retro sweet of the week…

May 8th, 2012

This week, our retro offering is sure to take you back to the days of best friends birthday parties… and the best part of musical chairs and pin the tail on the donkey? Well, the party bags of course!

It was almost guaranteed that all good party bags had a few of these classic treats thrown in, along with all our other tuck shop faves.

These mini rolls of fizzy, pinkness are often considered the sweeter sibling to the Parma Violet.

Fizzers

Yep, you guessed it… Fizzers!

How many of you love these just as much now as you did way back when?
Did you prefer these to Parma Violets, or were the floral rolls more to your fancy?!

If you’d like to win a haul of Fizzers, simply leave a comment on this post and declare your love for this fizzy favourite!

The winner will be the comment that makes us smile the most, and will be chosen by us here at Chewbz HQ.

Competition closes at 9am next Monday 14th May, so get typing :) .

    I absolutely adore Fizzers (& Parma Violets) I ate loads of these as a child & still love them. My kids all take after me too & can’t get enough of them either! I do try to hide my stash but somehow they always find them!

    I love Fizzers and unlike someone above will not send in sob stories pretending to be bullied when it is in fact the other way around!

    Good luck to all the genuine entrants!

    Oh yeah, and I won’t sell them on ebay if I win ;)

    I loveeeeeeee fizzers! When I was pregnant with my daughter I craved them and found myself eating packets and packets. No wonder I ended up having to have two fillings after she was born lol. They are now her favourite, she has them as a treat every Friday after school, fizzer Friday :) . She’s a bit mean though as she never shares lol!
