I was skeptical after reading the reviews but there was no need to be as everything was fantastic. The 10p bags were great and included a good little mix, worth way more than 10p and really does take... See more

Never got my ordered goods
Never got my ordered goods. NO communication at all with any explanation. NO refund
Funny I never had anything from the company about this until I leave a review then even on a Sunday I get a response asking for direct contact FYI I HAVE AND YOU HAVE NOT RESPONDED. SHAME ON YOU. LOOK FORWARD TO A 1 STAR REVIEW EVERY DAY UNTIL YOU DO RESPOND.

Hi, if you send us a message we can investigate as of now we have no idea of any details whatsoever.
Once we have an order number etc we can investigate, rather than leave a 1 star review stating the above when we have currently never had a chance to rectify the situation send us a message and we will resolve the matter!
It may be the order was lost in transit and if so we can ensure the matter is fully resolved but as mentioned above we currently have no details.
**WE ARE ASKING YOU TO MESSAGE US SO WE CAN LOOK INTO THE SITUATION! - CURRENTLY WE HAVE NO ORDER NUMBER OR THEREFORE WE HAVE NOONE TO CONTACT. WE ARE LITERALLY TRYING TO RESOLVE IT ALL WE ASK IS YOU MESSAGE US SO WE CAN RESPOND AND INVESTIGATE**
**Found your message in the spam folder from a few hours ago Stephen, we will investigate and sort this asap!**
Arrived today
Arrived today , ordered far too much but will go down well at work with the greedy mechanics 😁, so nice to have the blasts from the past , quick delivery love them Thankyou 🥰

Hi Monica,
I have just checked your order and you ordered 100g of Liquorice Allsorts and 100g of Original Jelly Babies both priced at £1.49 each.
Please explain what is a rip off? That is actually a very competitive price for the original brands also the price and weight are clearly shown before purchase.
Already put a Google review on but…
Already put a Google review on but can't reply to their comment, wish I looked at their reviews before ordering, most not very good, all they say is they use manufacturers and certain sweets are sold as broken, they don't advertise certain sweets as broken, by the sounds of it they don't take any responsibility of negative comments

Hi Sharon,
First of all we simply reply to reviews with facts.
You are stating every item that all items were tasteless, we dont manufacture the sweets and they are from completely different manufacture! This is not a I'm not ordering from here again, this is a they taste that everywhere you order them from as its the same manufacturer! Let me break it down;
Midget Gems - Lion (the original ones)
Nougat - The Real candy co
The photo we advertise for the fruit Torpedoes show they are broken and that is the reason they are heavily reduced in price.
The comments / reviews you state you wish you read? What about all the high reviews?
If you actually read each negative review in isolation and read the reply you will be able to see exactly the situation.
In thia specific situation you are stating the 2 sweets were tasteless and we are explaining that we dont manufacture them and they are from 2 different manufacturers - what would you like us to do exactly? You have stated we dont take negative comments which is untrue we are simply pointing out facts and that we dont make the sweets we cannot change the recipe of things we dont actually make.
I have to say
I have to say, it’s not a reflection on the company but more on the product.
The Tutti Fruity sweets are (pardon the wording) bloody awful. Rock hard, flavourless rubbish. Please stop selling these ASAP. They are literally disgusting.
The packaging the items were sent in was top notch however. Just bin the terrible products - surely you must try these before you sell them?

Hi James,
We are very sorry you dont like them, many of our customers love the tutti frutti bites its down to preference unfortunately but I understand if this isn't for you.
Ps 1 stars is harsh... 4 for the packaging at least 😬
Only giving 4 stars due to delivery…
Only giving 4 stars due to delivery time as it took ages.
As for the products I couldn’t fault them , my grandkids loved them.
