    These are fabulous sweeties – we used to play ‘fluffy bunnies’ with them as kids – my record was 23!!

    These sweets not only remind me of mushrooms covered with snow on a winter’s day, but also when I was really young and my grandpa would buy this for me every friday when he comes back from work. He died of stomach cancer but a taste of these sweets will be a great reminder of his presence in this world and all the fun times we had shared.
    He also loved poems and enjoyed writing ones of his own. I wrote one for his funeral and I will write one now:

    Dear grandpa whom you were so kind and sweet,
    You adored these as a bedtime treat.
    I may have been young but I did see,
    You may have loved these more than you loved me!
    But now you have gone to heaven above,
    You have left behind all these things you love.
    But I always know you are at my side,
    Munching coconut mushrooms with passion you can’t hide.

    Hmmm, no clever poems here! Just hoping that I win them so that I can gobble down my most fave sweets and who care about all those calories?!

  5. I nostalgically remember when I was a kid. My mother always bought them and treated us whenever we did something she would be proud of. They bring on good memories.

    My Grandad who is 95 absolutely loves Coconut Mushrooms! When we were children we would go to the garden centre at Christmas to chose a decoration and he would always buy Coconut Mushrooms! Can imagine his face if i gave him some of those!!

    These bring back memories for me as they were a great favourite of my Mum. We would pester the life out of her for some of them.
