Bonds of London Butter Mintoes - 120g

Butter Mintoes sit within a category of British confectionery that rarely gets reinvented because it rarely needs to be: the classic hard-boiled sweet. This particular style, smooth, slow-dissolving, and built around a butter-and-mint combination, has been a fixture of British sweetshops for generations. Bonds of London is one of the names most associated with keeping that tradition going, producing the kind of sweets that end up in glass jars on counters and paper bags at market stalls across the UK.

For British expats and Canadians with a connection to the UK, finding this sort of sweet outside Britain usually means relying on a care package or a well-organised relative. That is why searches for traditional British sweets in Canada, and Bonds sweets in Canada specifically, tend to land on shops like this one rather than a local supermarket aisle.

The 120g bag is a sensible size: enough to last, small enough to tuck into a gift box or a desk drawer. These keep well at room temperature, which makes them a reliable cupboard sweet rather than something that needs careful handling.

Bonds of London produces a broader range of traditional British sweets beyond Butter Mintoes. You can browse the full Bonds in Canada range here, or explore the wider British sweets collection if you are restocking more than one variety.

Orders ship from within Canada, so whether you are in Toronto or Kitchener-Waterloo, there is no waiting on an overseas parcel to arrive in questionable condition three weeks later.
