Thanks Daz!!

Use to like it back in the "olden" days, wonder if it will still have the same taste - used to be quite a strong taste if I remember rightly.

Hi!
Do you remember Trello bars - they were about 10p and were pink and white mallow inside chocolate?

Oh yes! My ex worked for Ashbury confectionery in Corby - makers of the Trello bar. She used to bring home bin bags full of the damn things from the scrap line. The though of Trello now brings me out in a cold sweat

Does anyone remember a Tic-Tac type sweet called Calypsos or Calipsos.. I can't remember the name exactly?
They came in a plastic square box similar to Tic-tacs but not transparent. I recall a blue box a orange box and a red box but the flavours escape me. In fact I cant quite remember what the sweets looked like.

actually they might have been called 'Ipso' and the advert used the word calypso 'ipso calypso

Re: sweets chocolate and ice lollies

Apparently the boxes could be joined together like lego.
Lots of people sharing memories of "Ipsos" Here

Re: sweets chocolate and ice lollies

thanks for the link...so they were called Ipso. I don't remember the Lego bit but it was a long time ago. Shame none of those people have posted a pic of the box
