What is the best tasting hard sweetie?

[Explosivo]

I like a kola cube
I love a Basset's cherry drop
But the best has to be a watermelon jolly rancher, but i can't find them in UK shops any more.
I can't seem to find sherbet strawberries anywhere either.

Most other hard sweets just seem to taste like coloured sugar to me.

Any recomendations?

I would have said Spangles, but you can't get them any more.
I would have then said Rum Drops (same idea as Cherry Drops), but I haven't seen them in years, either.

So, it's either Cherry Drops, or Super Cs if you have a decent Saffer shop nearby.

Some rhubarb and custards can be pretty good.

Rhubarb and custards are awful, the ones I've tried all taste chemically

Anything with Sherbet in them, omnomnom.
Does Kendal Mint cake count? If so, those too
Also like hard fruit sweets that have a liquidy(™©) center.

[Akagi]

Actually yes. I want some now.

Pear drops at the least fruity fruit sweets going, they taste like soap.

 

[Malt_Vinegar]

Glacier fruits.
Or maybe sherbert lemons.

Sweetie? That's enough internet for today.

Years ago Boots did some called acid drops and they were like >_< but you had to keep having more.
