I am upset about the news that Kola Kubes are going to stop being made.

They are still being made by several companies, it just that Taverners has stopped making them.

This is unfortunate new, especially with the recent boom in retro sweet shops.

I don't think kola cubes taste the same anymore, maybe it's just me. But I used to love going into the local shop and the man would get a white paper bag, and we could choose what we wanted from the jars behind the counter. Kola cubes, lemon sherbets, cough candy, rhubarb and custard, pear drops, and sweet peanuts etc. I've tasted a few newer versions, but they're not the same. Or maybe I'm just getting old ;-D

Jolly Rancher
Wacky Taffy
Autodrop
Cadbury's Black Forest bar - chocolate with cherry pieces and a picture of a German castle on the wrapper
Cadbury's Royal Mint bar- chocolate with a mint filling and a picture of a crown on the wrapper
A vague memory of some chocolate eggs with a toffee and mallow filling
3ft long lengths of liquorice
Thin liquorice sticks coated in fizzy crystals - similar to the stuff on fizzy cola bottles
UFO sweets that were similar to Smarties - I think they were Turkish
Some imitation smarties that tasted revolting. They were sold at the now defunct Camelot theme park.

I remember some Pick & Mix "smarties" were really nasty tasting.
