Retro sweet of the week

October 24th, 2011

Happy Monday Chewbz fans :) .

After a few weeks of loud and bright retro sweets, we thought it was about time we gave a more traditional treat it’s time in the spotlight.

This weeks Retro sweet of the week is…

Bullseyes

Bullseyes!

These delicious stripy sweets pack a mega minty punch! A great wintry treat, we’ve been treating ourselves to a few of these during this cold/freezing snap. They’ve even got us feeling a bit… Christmassy*!

We don’t currently sell these boiled beauties, but we’re always looking to expand our range, so if you’re a fan of these then please let us know!

If you would like to get your hands on a lovely lookin’ little jar of Bullseys, just leave a comment on this post. Tell us why you would love to try these minty treats, and our favourite comment will win.

All comments must be received by 9am next Monday, the 31st October.

* Start preparing your lists for Santa, It is only 8 festive weeks to go sweetie fans!

    I used to eat these on long car trips to the beach or to see family when I was a little kid! Memories – sucking my way through a bag of these and listening to UB40 tapes :)

  11. Ahhh..Bullseyes – closely related to traditional ‘humbugs’ but spherical in shape rather than oblong. These minty little balls certainly hit the spot as their name suggests and only Scrooge would begrudge them being shared around ;)

    These remind me of visits to my grandad. He would offer you one, but he had to give it to you incase you took more than the one.
