Defunct sweets?

Re: Defunct sweets?

An early Double Dip packaging, the guy in the design reminded me of Fred Flintstone for some reason.

Weren't there also Fiendish Faces yoghurts?

Oh man, it was the skeleton one. My mum used to make me pick between which treat item I could have when we went shopping, which at the time was those yogurts or Gino Ginelli ice cream. Those were the days.

Another thing I remember fondly were some yogurts that were shaped like monsters. The chocolate flavoured one was quite possibly the best tasting yogurt in the world. I think they were called funky feet or something, the other 3 flavours were a bit like the other yogurts of the time, but the chocolate one had a delicious bitterness to it that my kiddy self couldn't get enough of.

Re: Defunct sweets?

Well, I just trawled through the whole of this thread and what memories. A lot of them were a bit before my time, but it was still facinating to see how they evolved. I always thought Freddo chocolate bars were just an evolved version of Taz and Wildlife bars.

I recently had a sherbert fountain and I was discusted to see that they had done away with the old style packaging. What I thought was going to be an amazing re-visitation to my childhood turned into a bit of a damp squib.

Reading through this thread reminded me of Double Dips. I did a quick search to see if they were still in production and it turns out that they at least wet on for a bit longer after I had not got them due to a packaging redesign I don't remember seeing before. When I used to get them they had 2 kids on that looked like they belonged in the Dandy comic.



I don't think I'll bother tracking them down if they are still in production, I don't want to be disappointed again.

I had a look at those Wombles wrappers on Ebay because I quite fancied them being a fan, they're great! Too much for me though

Re: Defunct sweets?

Toffifee are still available in boxes but not that 'snack pack'. Those are from the 80's i think. I used to quite like them! Always used to be able to get them from Woolworths.

Ahh thanks I thought I may have seen them in boxes,the wrappers are all listed as 70's/80's

I remember having Solar bars a lot when I started Secondary School, there always seemed to be some loose chocolate chips in the wrapper at the end.

I remember those huggie. They were really really nice! I'd forgotten all about them!

They remind me of cross between the Munch Bunch and Mr. Men!
