Tunnocks's Teacakes

NEW IN AT SWEET BOUTIQUE HOVE:







Delicious Tunnock's Teacakes and Tunnock's Snowballs! A childhood classic which I'm sure taste just as amazing as you remember them.

I had to order these in partly because they are one of my all time favourite sweet treats and partly because the retro packaging was just too gorgeous!

Also best of all, both the Teacakes and the Snowballs are SUITABLE FOR VEGETARIANS! Yes a marshmallow made the old fashioned way with no Gelatin (although they do contain egg and milk so sorry vegans not for you this time).

Giant candy canes in pop music!

I couldn't stop thinking about giant candy canes and was trying to remember where I'd seen them (outside of Willy Wonka's chocolate factory...) and I finally remembered Fergie's (from the Black Eyed Peas) 2006 solo video for "Fergalicious" where Fergie is in her very own Willy Wonka - esque candyland:


WARNING The video is not at all scandalous really but as a responsible child friendly sweet shop blogger I'd like to point out that it contains lots of writhing around on a bed of candy, ladies wrestling in cake, and lots of long legs, bare midrif and cleavage, I suppose she can't help it, she's "Fergalicious!" :

Have a super sweet day!

CANDY CANES

We've got Candy Canes!

Luxury designer Candy Canes in unique kitsch colours with a delicious fruit flavour (truly the nicest candy canes i've ever eaten!!). Perfect for decking your halls and trimming your trees! Boxes of 12 available, or sold individually. Available in both our shops RIGHT NOW.

I wish we also had some GIANT candy cane lights outside our shops, or in fact i'd just like a giant candy cane light in my house all year round....
