Boiled Sweets

What makes boiled sweets so special?

Boiled sweets are crafted through a time-honoured process of heating sugar to incredibly high temperatures, creating those gloriously complex, glossy treats we all know and love. Unlike chewy sweets that require a good chew, boiled sweets dissolve slowly on your tongue, releasing their flavours gradually.

The beauty of boiled sweets lies in their simplicity. Sugar, water, and flavourings combine to create something truly special. From classic fruit drops to buttery butterscotch, each variety offers its own unique experience.

Which flavours will tantalise your taste buds?

Our collection features an impressive array of flavours that'll transport you straight back to your childhood sweet shop. You'll find traditional fruit flavours like lemon, orange, and blackcurrant sitting alongside more adventurous options like rhubarb and custard or cola cubes.

For those who prefer minty freshness, our selection includes everything from powerful peppermints to subtle spearmint varieties. And if you're after something truly indulgent, butterscotch and toffee-flavoured boiled sweets deliver that rich, creamy taste without the stickiness of traditional toffees.

How do boiled sweets compare to other confections?

While chocolate melts quickly and fizzy sweets create an instant sensation, boiled sweets offer a more measured pleasure. They're perfect for those moments when you want a sweet treat that lasts; whether you're on a long car journey, sitting through a meeting, or simply relaxing at home.

Unlike lollipops that require constant handling, boiled sweets can be enjoyed hands-free. And compared to chewing gum, they offer actual flavour variety without the need to dispose of anything afterwards.

Are boiled sweets suitable for everyone?

Good news for those with dietary requirements; many boiled sweets are naturally vegetarian-friendly, and we stock plenty of vegan options too. Since they're typically made from sugar and flavourings without gelatine, they're often suitable for a broader range of diets than gummy or foam sweets.

However, it's worth noting that boiled sweets are very hard, so they're not recommended for young children who might struggle with them. Always check the packaging for allergen information, especially if you have specific dietary needs.

How should you store your boiled sweets?

Proper storage keeps your boiled sweets in tip-top condition. Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Heat and humidity are the enemies of boiled sweets; they can cause them to become sticky or lose their satisfying crunch. An airtight container works brilliantly, preventing moisture from getting in and keeping those flavours fresh.

Suppose you're buying in bulk (and why wouldn't you at our prices?), consider dividing your sweets into smaller containers. This way, you're not exposing the entire batch to air every time you fancy a sweet.
