Cadbury Dairy Milk (original purple)
That deep Cadbury purple with the flowing gold script has barely changed in a century. Pure comfort in wrapper form.

Wagon Wheels
The wild west cowboy graphics promised adventure with every chocolate-covered biscuit. Also, weren't they bigger back then?

Spangles
That colourful striped paper wrapper with each fruity square individually twisted. A proper Proustian rush for anyone born before 1975.

Curly Wurly
The bold yellow wrapper with that chunky brown lettering screamed 70s cool. Chewy, stretchy and criminally thinner these days.

Sherbet Fountain
The original paper tube with the liquorice stick sticking out was pure playground currency. The plastic tube era just isn't the same.
