Nuttalls Mintoes because I lived next to the factory and used to get a free half pound bag of rejects whenever I wanted one. They usually had just come of the conveyor belt still warm and there was no better taste!!

All the toffees were great, texans and highland toffees with a cow on the wrapper.

My favourite was toffos but only because to my embarrassment it was funny giving them to our dog.

Oh who actually thought pacers were a good idea. A mint flavoured Opel fruit, really.
