It's dead at work today and I'm bored beyond belief. There is a new box of charity sweets on the counter and someone has already beaten me to the wine gums the twat! |

Quite right. I am showing my ignorance of small iced biscuits for which I unreservedly apologize.
My turn to slink out of the room. |

No, really, I am too embarrassed now. And, no matter how talented he may be, I would always feel like I was taking advantage of the little fellow. I would direct him to gloswingers, I think, where he would be greater appreciated. |

Costco sell Jelly Belly jelly beans in 1.8kg jars, (about £15).
I was sooo tempted last time I was there. I had to calculate the total calories in the jar and imagine the effects on my jelly belly to stop myself. |

Finally! My specialist subject!
Midget gems: small, chewy, fruit flavoured gummy sweets
Wine gums: larger hard jelly type sweets with a lingering after flavour,
Ice gems: hard little biscuits around 1cm in diameter with really hard icing piped on the top. Perfect for children's parties.
I'll get my coat. |

My selfish desires to quench my taste for sweets usurps and thought about where the profits go or whether the excess will go to a worthy cause. I would say more but it is interfering with my search for mini mars bars |
