Rowntree's Fruit Pastilles Carton - 320g

Fruit pastilles belong to that small club of British sweets everyone has strong opinions about, usually which colour is the best one and why the person next to you is wrong. Families have been arguing over the last of a favourite colour for generations, and nobody has ever won.

People in Canada go looking for them because a fruit pastille isn't really about the sweet. It's the long car journey, the school trip, the film where you rustled too loudly. You want that exact chew, and only the real one does it.

A 320g carton is a proper sharing size, built for a film night, a road trip or a desk drawer that colleagues are not supposed to know about. Keep it in a cool, dry cupboard out of the sun and it will wait patiently until you remember it's there.

Rowntree's also make Fruit Gums, Jelly Tots and Randoms, so if the pastilles have you feeling nostalgic, you're in good company. Plenty of people pair a carton with a box of British tea and call it an evening sorted.
