Retro sweet of the week!

September 5th, 2011

Back to school time retro sweet fans!

We always get nostalgic around this time of year, does anyone else crave the thrill of a new pencil case around the start of September?!

Apart from the excitement of new stationary, what we miss the most about our school days is of course… the tuck shop (and after school trips to the corner shop) :D .

So we thought to celebrate the start of the new term, we would choose a tuck shop classic!

Fruity Pop

Fruity Pops!

You just can’t beat these for some fruity lollipop goodness, these will take you right back to those carefree days ;) .

Red is still the ultimate favourite and first to go here at Chewbz HQ but we think poor old Yellow is pretty underrated!

Fancy winning a stash of these? Simply leave a comment on this post, and our favourite will WIN some of these classic retro lollies.

The competition will close at 9am on Monday 12th September, so make sure you get your comment in sharpish!

    When i was younger and had these lollipops i used to untwist the top and fold the wrapper down still leaving it attatched underneath the lollipop itself. This gave me a little Superman to play with and eventually eat.

    These were really awesome, the package made them look great. I seem to remember sucking these and they also seem to end up with sharp edges?! Weird!

    Late at night, when your sure of a fright
    nothing better than a Turkish delight.
    It feels you with warmth and a touch of naughtiness
    and so often you end in a mess!

    Got to love the old retro sweets!!!

    I loved these lollies even though my parents made me paranoid that I was going to cholk and die sucking one! They were constantly telling me to not run around with a lolly in my moth in case I trip and fall and cholk on it and die!!! What a thing to say to a child lol! I have to bite my lip when I see my own children doing the same – luckily I am first aid trained and would know what to do!!!!
