Swizzels Matlow Party Mix Tub - 785g

Swizzels sit right at the heart of British pocket-money sweets: the corner shop counter, the tuck shop, the party bag. Small, cheap, colourful and gone in seconds, they are the sweets most people in Britain could name before they could spell them.

In Canada, people tend to come looking for this tub with a party in mind. A child's birthday with a bit of Britain in it, a leaving do, a reunion of people who all grew up on the same sweets, or a parent who wants their kids to know exactly what they mean when they talk about party bags.

The tub holds 785g of mixed sweets, which goes a long way: enough to fill a stack of party bags or keep a bowl topped up on the table all evening. Keep it somewhere cool and dry in the cupboard, and put the lid back on before the dog takes an interest.

Swizzels are the people behind Love Hearts, Drumstick lollies, Refreshers and Parma Violets, so the tub tends to send people looking for the rest of the range. It sits nicely next to other British sweets on a party table, or in a box for someone who has been away too long.
