They are very responsive and easy to contact. I've ordered from them several times and never had a problem. They are very professional!

If you know your Kola Kubes from your Cola Bottles and your Comfits from your Spogs, you're definitely one of our kind of people! And even if you don’t, we're always willing to share the ancient art of retro magic - all you need is a love of sweets! The bad news is that as good as we are, we can’t roll back time to the good old days when a ‘10p mix up’ got you a paper bag bursting with sweets from your local sweet shop. In fact, these days you’d be lucky if you can find your local sweet shop! But don’t despair, the good news is that we have more retro sweets than you can shake a jelly stick at…or a jelly baby, a jelly snake, a jelly ring (we could continue, but we think you get what we’re saying!). And you don’t even need to leave the comfort of your sofa to get your hands on our retro sweets. Whether you need to get the perfect birthday/anniversary/Valentines/Christmas present (delete as required!) or you just want to treat yourself - we have something for everyone and any budget! The only tough thing you need to do, is decide which sweet to eat first!

Great Vegetarian sweets

I always go to retro sweets when I buy sweets for my children's party bags. They have a whole section for vegetarian sweets so there is no having to read through ingredients trying to work out what is suitable for veggies! Plus they have all the classic sweets so I love them. The website could be a bit more user friendly though!

So, My aunty who is 82 loves liquorice ! Its the 23rd of December, and bassets is just not special enough, so where do I go in such a panic...

Retro sweets was my answer, what a relief! Now all I need is a big gobstopper for my talkative sister!

Tasty treets

A really easy website with loads of old favourites. Easy to navigate around the website and excellent choice and value for money.

Perfect for Christmas

Retro sweets have such a large choice, it can make the decision difficult but at least you know there's something for everyone. Some of the smaller gifts are perfect for Christmas to use as a stocking filler or as a little extra something sweet. Would definitely recommend.
