Merry Maid chocolate caramels

[www.doyouremember.co.uk]

Made by Jamesons (who also made Raspberry Ruffles) and had a wrapper with a picture of an archetypal smiling country lass; that illustration was unforgettable!They were essentiall Milk Chocolate Caramels - chewy toffee with a chocolate coating. They are stil availabel but have changed their name. They are the same sweet - but with a different name. Odd!!! Now the boffins at Jamesons call them Milk Chocolate Caramels. so despite the new name and new wrapper the same old flavour remains!

Oh Wow! I always loved Merrymaids. I thought they were yet another long gone delicious sweet of the past. I had no idea that they'd just changed their name. I'm off to town tomorrow to buy a bag of Jamesons Milk Choc Caramels. I've seen Raspberry Ruffles in town, don't know if they taste the same as years ago because they're like a bar now, not an individual sweet,can't even say if they're still made by Jamesons. My Dad loved them.
