This Ayreshirehistory.com page on lolly wrappers is superb. So many to mentally lick. So many frozen memories. Have a bite yourself. Which were your fave lollies?
You've asked this before and the answer hasn't wavered . . . 'Cider Barrel'! Although these days the Twister and Solero Tropical take some beating, indeed I think the lack of choice these days has a lot do do with them (the makers) having found the full palette of top 'faves'!
Ah, the Count Dracula's Secret.
ReplyDeleteA vanillary, gooey, sticky sweet lolly I remember well. Never got the projector though. What a great prize.
Such a superbly icky lolly Mish I agree and what a totally brilliant name and wrapper!
