PROEER Midget Gems, with black liqourice ones!It has been a busy time for us at Bah Humbugs Sweet Shop this summer, with lots of customers coming from all around Yorkshire and further afield. With the large variety of sweets, from dutch liquorice to chewy toffees and a whole selection of our old hard boiled favourites, there's always something for everyone. Here's a run down of our top ten sellers on our online sweet shop this summer:
1. Lion's Midget Gems - the classic, hard midget gem! These are the original, juicy hard gum sweets made by Lion's in Cleckheaton, West Yorkshire. The black ones are the original licorice gums with the liquorice flavour - just to avoid any confusion! Proper Midget Gems, no imitation products, just proper Lions Midget Gems.
2. Rhubarb & Custards - a classic British boiled sweet. A traditional boiled sweet loved by many with a tart Rhubarb flavour combined with sweet & creamy custard flavour.
3. Pontefract cakes - Traditional Soft Liquorice coins made by Taveners which is sweet in taste and has a smooth texture. In our traditional sweet shop and our online sweet shop we sell hundreds of these liquorice sweets each day, a firm sweet favourite which is hard to beat!
