I have a couple of days off to recover from nights
I have just finished setting up an Amazon account
I love dolly mixtures
I cannot thank you enough
This is going to be awesome!
It’s a bloody good thing they’re not vegetarian friendly, or I’d be buggered 🙂
I have a more savoury tooth but there are certain sweets from my childhood that definitely override that preference.
Gelatine, that makes me sad
Used to do this with foam bananas (the giant ones) and watermelon slices
I couldn’t eat the slices for months after that, I ate so many…
I quite like the jelly sweets
I prefer jelly babies and wine gums
Buy by the pallet!
There’s a building on Concert Sq in Liverpool where they used to make the flavourings for the likes of Dolly Mixtures, Jap Desserts and the like. A mate had a studio on the top floor and the smell would make you proper starving after a few minutes.
I actually work at a place that makes them in Blackpool.
Genuinely almost did this a few weeks ago. I unfortunately am vegetarian and they are all gelatine jellies
Keep them in a dry, cool place. I did a similar thing during covid and they all just morphed into a giant sweaty blob
Could go a nice big tub of Jelly Belly beans myself… except for the unethical inclusion of the sizzling cinnamon, which have no right being mixed in there IMO.

Send me a yellow sugar cube of happiness in the post please
Dolly
Don’t tempt me Frodo
In denial, mate? Maybe swap ’em for some fruit.
Hahah I am so glad I’m not the only one!!
It takes me back to being with my gran and her grabbing them out her cabinet ❤️
Edit: FYI Amazon I think did a cheaper 3kg bag – £18 (just checked)
As much as I do love dolly mixtures, it makes me crave liquorice allsorts!
Now if they were a bag of jelly babies…..
Speedrunning type 2 diabetes for the win!!
Come back 3 kilos later and tell us you’re fine quitting then.
I mean that’s fine so long as you’re not smashing that lot in an hour. As a single day’s supply it looks correct.
Massively overpaid there. You can get a 3kg bag for about 18 quid on Amazon. Been so very tempted myself
You could give them up any time you want ……… Just like Zammo McGuire
Where???
Have you already eaten those mushrooms 😉
p.s. you know you can get 2 x 3Kg bags for £32 ( [https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sweetshop-Wholesale-Retro-Sweets-Bags/dp/B08CNJ9ZVQ](https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sweetshop-Wholesale-Retro-Sweets-Bags/dp/B08CNJ9ZVQ) )
