Oooh, some lovely choices there! And you are so right about the fizzy cola bottles too! Todays just don’t compare

Didn’t like Parma violets or beer bottles, but cola bottles oh yes! My favourite. Also love the twin cherries too

I did, I did! Although they wanted 25p for the thing! I grabbed my Milk, and left sharpish (with a sneaky Giant Cola Bottle sweet in my mitts).

Ooooh, Love Hearts for favors is such a great idea. Definitely more tempting than sugared almonds. I must say, you might be alone on those Floral Gums.

Twin cherries definately gets the thumbs up with me. I don’t suppose you came across a Wham bar today? Thank you for popping by my blog so that I could visit your very lovely blog

Parma Violets are lovely, another one that I think are an acquired taste! I stuck floral gums on my list. I love the idea of the sweet bar at your wedding, I would be stuck by it:) At our wedding for favours I bought mini packets of Love Hearts and used them as favours, and some other friends had big jars of sweets in the middle of each table, I think we had cola bottles and jelly beans on ours. It was a great ice breaker as people were digging in, and then swapping with other tables.
