As an American I love candy, but I am not at all familiar with British candy. Today I am very excited to learn about the most popular British candy and how it compares to cand in America. If you enjoyed the video feel free to leave a comment, like, or subscribe for more!
if real chocolate were to be introduced into the US, Hersheys would go out of business- and that tells you why it hasnt, they bribed and sued as much as they could
Yeah Hersey’s blocked Cadbury’s from selling their products in the US. Instead Hersey’s paid for a license to make and sell Cadbury products but with the Hersey chocolate recipe.
I recently saw an American whose favourite chocolate was the American Cadbury’s Dairy Milk bar. Try the UK version.
They said it was really good. Then for comparison tried her usual American version.
She stopped and said “Huh…….thats weird”. Basically acknowledging there was a slightly unpleasant aftertaste. They were also aware that American chocolate contains a chemical found in vomit. That gives American chocolate a slightly acid vomit flavour.
As well as American chocolate containing half the amount of cocoa, so they try to add artificial flavour and more sugar to make up for it.
@andyf4292 Hersheys isn’t the only chocolate company in America. Remember Mars? Its staples Snickers, Milky Way, M&Ms and, of course, Mars bars which is mentioned in this video, have been selling around the world for ages. And then there’s Swiss giant Nestle.
And just like Britain there are smaller higher brow companies like Thorntons. America has Whitmans, they also have Ghiradelli, and let’s see🤔 oh yes Sees, another popular Californian (and therefore American) chocolatier that has had British work colleagues of mine polishing off boxes of the stuff double speed. That should put to rest any theories about other foreign countries’ chocolates being kept out to rescue Hershey’s. Apparently no need, I guess it just means some people like it’s bittersweet flavour.
@@JarlGrimmToys hersheys r out of order, I mean because of pronouns and suchlike these days, surely herheys shud b theythems?? Haha
@@alexrafe2590Mars Bars are a British Creation! Made before World War One!
@@ianmatthews3041 OK, I don’t know about the origins of all chocolate bars, it may well be, but like Hershey’s the Mars company is an American company that originated in that country and then became global. And their chocolate is eaten by millions in countries around the world, including of course Britain. And it’s chocolate is mellow and sweet. Hershey’s isn’t as good, and Cadbury’s is much better. No argument there.
Putting the empty After Eights envelope back in the box is a major no no
It ought to be an arrestable offence.
unless you're at a Christmas party 'not at home'. you put the envelope back in the box so that you can laugh at drunk relative getting peckish and fancying something not too big but can't be bothered grabbing something off the buffet table. 😁
however, drunk relative + after eights + party games with after eights = some of the best festive entertainment at Christmas (especially combined with warm atmosphere) 🤣
lol, we don’t remove the envelopes, just take the Choccy out 😂
black currant isn't just a "flavour" its a fruit. It is not popular in the US because at one point it was illegal (not anymore)
Why were blackcurrants illegal? I'm intrigued...
@noemisarah98 I believe its something to do with the plant being very invasive and threatened other crops that I guess were seen as more profitable at some time.
@@Emexrulsier Thanks
Blackcurrant isn’t a flavour, it’s a fruit. A delicious fruit 😋
It's a rhibenna flavour 😮
@@robertcreighton4635 😆
@MetalRocksMe. I think i spelt it wrong 😅 🤔
It sure is delicious fruit. And candy flavour 😋.
Fruit flavours exist so it can be both or are you saying things can’t be orange flavoured or banana flavoured?
American Cadbury products are made by Hershey! Hershey instigated a lawsuit (otherwise known as protectionism) to prevent an American company importing Cadbury products into the US as they knew it was a much better product and would hit their sales. They gained the right to manufacture Cadbury in the US, but also altered the recipe for the chocolate (something to do with the way they incorporate milk into the product) so it is no longer a true Cadbury product.
From an item reported in the UK Daily Express today 12th December, a national newspaper: "Thousands of pounds worth of sweets from the US allegedly containing illegal ingredients have been seized from UK shops. Mountain Dew drinks, Jolly Ranchers, Swedish Fish and Lemon Heads are being advertised on TikTok and Instagram. But they are reported to contain carcinogenic and genotoxic ingredients banned here"
Indeed, beware of fake imitations.
Hershey doing the same things to Chocolate as Apple did to Phones!
I really feel sorry for people in the US. They don’t realise that chocolate doesn’t have to taste of sick 🤢 Hersheys chocolate is disgusting.
The hardest part is having you call everything candy. In the UK, we differentiate more
Not me, don't bow down to this lot!
Same with cookies!
I’ve noticed that, it’s not just candy vs sweets, it’s like fries and chips. I said a chip butty looked good on insta and asked if you guys put gravy on it and I learned 2 things. 1. If you’re from the north, yes, if you’re from everywhere else, curry sauce, and 2. Chips are thick cut fries over there and fries are McDonald’s. Meanwhile here in America, fries encompass all types of differently cut potatoes. Thick cut, thin cut, doesn’t matter, all the same. Except for potato wedges I suppose.
@Gymtoshi fries and chips are actually 2 different things.
And crisps is what Americans call chips so that's another confusion
Jelly Babies are like a fruit juice Jell-O/jelly thickened with corn starch.
"A pastille is a type of sweet or medicinal pill made of a thick liquid that has been solidified and is meant to be consumed by light chewing and allowing it to dissolve in the mouth".
There are still many of us in the UK annoyed that our "Marathon Bar", was renamed to the international standard name of "Snickers".
"After Eights" were marketed as a "sophisticated" after dinner mint. Eaten after a formal evening dinner. Now a staple part of Christmas confectionary.
Loved Marathon - won’t ever eat ‘Snickers’
Tyler, if you get a PO box people will send you British stuff to try.
I'll send him black pudding 🍮
Tyler NEVER reads his comments, despite routinely asking for them. It's all about the money.
He is too busy trying Canadian stuff as Tyler Bucket.
Save your time and money.
He has/had a PO Box: Tyler E. PO Box 2973 Evansville, IN 47728. Good luck! The canadian lady who sent him canadian snacks a year ago got a reply he got the stuff and he tested them on camera last week (his CAN channel).
I always find it interesting that Americans find the idea of mixing chocolate with Orange flavouring unusual. In the UK it's a very common type of chocolate - both in terms of chocolate bars, but also sauces for desserts etc.
Wine gums do not have any alcohol or alcoholic flavouring - no idea where the name came from.
After Eights are meant to be eaten at the end of a sophisticated meal, with the coffee.
I think wine gums get their name because they have the names of wines and similar alcoholic beverages imprinted into them.
I grew up with Crunchie, black current flavour, the lightweight Milky Way bar, chocolate & candy coating Smarties, Terry's Chocolate Orange, Wine Gums, Maynard's, After Eight, Galaxy, literally ALL the Brit candies are ubiquitous in Canada. However, my favourite will always be Flake bars. How is the US so deprived? 🇨🇦🇬🇧
US chocolate tasts so bad, I'm shocked how Eric Cartman got fat
It really is insane but even the same products by name taste totally different in the USA. I've seen a lot of comparison videos and just the ingredients are so different. They don't have a clue how it's supposed to taste. I've forgotten how many ingredients were on just a macd fries but overhere there are 3 potato,salt and oil in the US there are huge amounts of ingredients. It is even very hard to find candy without artificial flavours and sweeteners. Even quite a choise for Islamic kids.
It's because Hershey has the license to make and distribute Cadbury branded chocolate and make it using horrible American chocolate. And I think Hershey has taken Cadbury to court over Cadbury supposedly ripping off Hersheys cream egg recipe. Which sounds like bullshit to me. Given that they were making it under license from Cadbury.
@@andyf4292 the tongue wants what’s familiar and the way their chocolate tastes is the only taste they know, so why not eat it.
they put butyric acid in it as a preservative.... also found in vomit
@@natalielang6209
Hi Tyler, The Hershey chocolate taste is caused by the addition of Butyric Acid which was added to both extend the shelf life of the chocolate and to stop milk from going sour. In World War 2 Hershey sold its chocolate to the American armed services and was added to ration packs of soldiers because of the long shelf life. The soldiers got used to the acrid flavour and after the war these veterans wanted the same taste in their chocolate therefore Hershey kept to the same recipe rather than modernise the manufacturing process. European chocolate, however, still has superior ingredients in comparison with chocolate in the US . I remember, when I was a child, my grandfather always bought my brother and me a bag of Jelly Babies (in those days they were sold by weight into a paper bag). He told us to always go for the boy Jelly Babies as they had a little bit extra! We never did find a boy Jelly Baby.
Jelly Babies are also the best sweet to carry around if you are diabetic and your blood sugar level plummets and you need a quick hit of sugar. As such they are also a great sweet to carry if you are hiking and feel your energy flagging. Many hikers know to carry "Emergency Jelly Babies". The idea is not to use them when hiking, but they are there if you need a quick kick of energy to keep you going. The best part though, is if you don't use them up in the hills, you have a full packet to eat when you get home 😁.
interesting!
I use them hiking, but more frequently they sit in the door pocket in my car fulfilling the same role as a quick source of energy. They're my preferred option for this as they don't melt in a hot car and don't need unwrapping while driving.
Yep. My type 1 husband always has a small tub of either jelly babies or wine gums in his pocket for low bg levels😊
Cadbury is a British Chocolate company founded in Birmingham in 1824. Hershey has a licence to produce Cadbury chocolate in the US. The British product is far superiior as Milk chocolate in the UK and Europe must caontain at least 25% chocolate solids but in the US the minimum is 10% and the flavour is enhanced by adding extra sugar.
I'm from Ireland and Harsheys is sold here but Cadbury and Nestle dominate.
In the US, I read that youse have a chocolate brand called Dove. The packaging looks pretty close. To me, it's the same kind of close that the crisps Walkers and Lay packaging have to each other. Over here, Dove is a brand of personal care products. Like deogrant and bars of soap.
We have both in the US - Dove chocolate and Dove soap.
American chocolate uses vomit acid as a preservative that gives it its unique after taste. This became popular after WWII when it was included in G.I. rations.
Cadburys name is licensed to the US but the ingredients are different. Proper chocolate here, so tastes very different
The Creme Egg is single-handedly the reason why supermarkets are obligated to have their Easter Selection on the shelves for even longer than their Christmas stuff. It's THAT good.
they have been available for sale since late November this year.
They used to be good. Then kraft bought out Cadbury and changed the recipe using cheaper ingredients. Current Creme Eggs are sickly sweet and nothing like as good as they used to be.
Was that good until they down graded the chocolate now it just tastes of sugar wrapped in sugar.
They're lush, but sickly if you have more than one
You have a lot of 'toffee flavoured stuff' in america, you just throw it under the umbrella term of caramel flavoured I think.
A little known fact is that jelly babies contain all the necessary vitamins, so in the UK doctors recommend them for older people with poor appetites. Based on this another company got in on this producing jellyatrics which is a jelly baby recipe but moulded to look like old people.
The honeycomb is created by dissolving sodium bi-carbonate in the hot toffee. This caused the toffee to foam and as it cools it retains the co2 caused in the reaction with the sugar.
When I was growing up in the 1980's this was called cinder toffee. Honeycomb was actually a honeycomb (as in out of a bees nest). I always wonder when the word changed.
@@jenniedarling3710 must have been before my time. I grew up in the 50s and new it by both names. There was chocolate covered and au natural I huge chunks. Well they seemed huge to me as a small boy.
Smarties were the inspiration for America's M&M's. Forrest Mars Sr tried some whilst on a trip to the UK, and decided to adopt the concept in the USA. The rest as we say, is history.
PLEASE don't tell me you don't have Maltesers... No... That can't be true... I love Maltesers, Malteser bars, Malteser Celebrations, Malteser McFlurrys, Malteser Krushems...
They have Malteasers but they are called Malt Balls apparently.
The US has a disgusting version of Maltesers called Whoppers. Like most American chocolate it tastes like vomit.
We have all these in Canada. I am really surprised that the US doesn't have After Eights. It's a real Christmas tradition, along with the Chocolate Orange. I feel bad for the US for missing out on all these great candies.
growing up and getting excited for your christmas stocking every year because you just KNOW youre gonna get a chocolate orange and a tube of smarties is the best excitement one can ever experience (smarties >>>> m&ms)
You may know the Crunchie honeycomb as cinder toffee?
The inside of a crunchie bar is made from cinder toffee. It is a very simple recipe (but easy to screw up the cooking of sugar based items, natch)
After Eights are a form of after dinner mint chocolate. Mint is an aid to digestion and the UK has a tradition of making after dinner chocolates with a mint flavour to help digest a meal. But these days a box of After Eights will be eaten at any time.
In the US it was customary in steakhouses etc to give you andes mint chocolates with your bill. They also became a sort of standard candy for hotels to leave on your pillow if the hotel didn't have their own chocolate or some kind of brand deal in place. When is the last time you had a chocolate with the bill or on your pillow? Bring that back!
I ate some before 6:30 pm 😅😂
Smarties are the reason you have M&M's "The original idea for M&M's is quite surprising. It was sparked when Forrest Mars saw soldiers eating Smarties during the Spanish Civil War."
When I was little I used to get a pack of minstrels and then line them all up on the radiator for a couple of minutes before eating them. Crunchy shell with the melted chocolate inside was so good!
Most of these candies are available in Canada!
Oh there is so much difference in the flavour of m&ms to smarties, smarties are also smoother, creamier and melts in your mouth quicker cause the outer shell is thinner (I far prefer smarties they are so good)
C'mon,Tyler,of course,WINE Gums don't contain alcohol..just the NAMES of drinks🎩
We have all of these candies in Canada too.
I remember Crunchie bars. If you suck the air out of them, they are less crunchie. We sell them in Canada. Same with Smarties. They taste slightly different than M&Ms. "When you eat your Smarties, do you eat the red ones last?"
Over here, Terry's chocolate orange comes in orange chocolate, dark chocolate, toffee chocolate and white chocolate.
We also have After Eights here - much thinner than York. You open up a box at Xmas and everyone takes one.
Maltesers are gross. Last time I had one was when I used to go out for Halloween.
Cadbury creme eggs are good, but they leak. Yeah, we have Aero. Do we still have Turkish Delight?
Fruit pastels are delish, i had a mild addiction to these as a kid and also jelly tots😊
The Cadbury factory is about 20 miles from where I live and Cadbury World is close and it's open to the public its shows the history of chocolate and how it made into different sweets 😊
Smarties are similar to M&Ms but Britain also have M&Ms...US smarties are similar to our refreshers
M&Ms were a direct copy, by Forrest Mars, in 1941 of the Rowntree product dating from the 1880s, but branded as Smarties in 1937. They were initially produced for the US Army as they didn't melt, in the pocket.
The word "Candy" isn't popular in the UK for a start. It's either "sweets" or "chocolate", depending on the type. I will never say "Cadbury", it will always be "Cadbury's", despite their attempt to rebrand it. And I've been to Cadbury's World
'Kendy'!!😮
@@pathopewell1814 What? Is that a Barbie thing?
Tyler cadbury in USA is not the same as it is still hersheys' who have a licence to provide some cadbury. You need a PO box and have the real stuff sent to you.
He has/had a PO Box: Tyler E. PO Box 2973 Evansville, IN 47728. Good luck! The canadian lady who sent him canadian snacks a year ago got a reply he got the stuff and he tested them on camera last week (his CAN channel).
Some of the honourable mentions should've made the full list. Crunchies aren't particularly popular but flakes are so popular that it's standard practice to put a flake in ice cream when you buy it from an icecream truck
Of course there's lots of Cadbury stuff in the UK. Cadbury was a company started here in the UK. What you have in the US is US version of Cadbury made by Hershey.
So the only ways you can get genuine Cadbury in the US is to either have a friend in the UK who will send you some or for you to go shopping at a foreign food store. The taste of US Cadbury compared the UK Cadbury is very very different with the UK's being smoother and creamier than that in the US.
Milky Way bars and Smarties are amazing here. I believe our Milky Way is similar to your Three Musketeers bars. It's sad that America has no (good) Smarties though. I need a Smarties McFlurry every time I go to McDonald's.
You don't have chocolate flavoured orange at all?! 😮 Almost every popular chocolate here has an orange variant. The orange flavour is always the best chocolate there is! Even the orange Smarties are so much better than every other Smartie, so they even sell orange ones separately sometimes, and I will always buy them when I see them!
Yes! In Australia, we have Jaffas which are chocolate in a round orange-flavoured shell.. Maybe they took the name from UK jaffa cakes.
I had an English friend that brought me some sweets from England but I have forgotten the name. - each sweet had a different flavour and I loved the orange ones and coffee ones. You can hardly get any coffee flavoured sweets here.
We recently found Tassimo orange flavoured hot chocolate. 😋
@@nolajoy7759 revels? I believe that's what you're talking about.
Yes, that's what they were - thank you ! They're really nice. He also brought me some fudge from Cornwall which was really good too @@shibadawn
I just started the video and YES! CRUNCHIE! I'm in Ireland (not UK) but these are one of my favourite bars! 🩷🩵
I love a Crunchie! And Bounty!
I have one crunchie a day. and I only have it because the medication I'm on makes me crave chocolate. however, some brands of chocolate I can't tolerate (palm oil) and a crunchie has just enough of the right kind of chocolate on it to satisfy that once-a-day craving. it's a perfect serving of chocolate. and I bloody love cinder toffee too!!! (and its chocolate coated counterpart when crunchies aren't available).
Crunchie is big in Canada. It is sponge toffee covered in chocolate. Canadian Smarties are also like M&Ms.
Mate, you have not lived until you've had a crunchie, they are so delicious
In Australia we have been spoilt as well having grown up with all those yummy chocolate bars and lollies such as jelly babies, snakes, strawberries and cream and the list goes on and on lol.
Chocolate in the Uk puts Hershie bars in the shade!
You make me laugh Tyler when you keep asking if the sweets and chocolates shown in this video are popular when the title of the video your watching is THE MOST POPULAR SWEETS in the UK
JUst don't expect him to ever read any comments - or learn anything. His videos are to generate money - that's all he needs comments, for.
@@wessexdruid7598Yep, he takes no notice of anything we write or even what he 'learns' from the videos he watches.
5:03 American food is just preservatives, hence their attention span of a gnat! Dim or what?
I'm so disappointed my favourite isnt in the vid, Double Deckers are amazing
I eat at least 1 pack of Maltesers a week and have only just found out they have honey in them!😂
Rowntree's of York, England, have been making "Chocolate Beans" since at least 1882.
The product was renamed "Smarties Chocolate Beans" in 1937.
M&M's originated in the United States in 1941.
There really is no comparison between British chocolate and North American chocolate. British chocolate is much creamier without the grease. I hadn’t realized that North American chocolate had a ‘greasy’ look until opening a bar of British chocolate. Same brand, same name
Smarties are similar to M&M’s, except M&M’s are made with dark chocolate. Smarties are made with milk chocolate
i cant believe you have never had orange flavoured chocolate!!!!!
its soooo nice you need to
Galaxy is branded as Dove in the US, which is probably what you see in Walmart etc.
Jelly babies are used by a number of people with diabetes as an emergency treatment for low blood sugar levels. I can personally vouch for their effectiveness.
I'm 47 now but when I was in primary school we'd always say "I'll eat your head, I'll eat your body, I'll eat your legs" when eating jelly babies.
We don't call our SWEETS candy .
The filling in a Crunchie is what Americans call cinder toffee.
Blackcurrants are a FRUIT BERRY not a flavour !
Galaxy chocolate is a lot smoother and creamier than Cadbury's.
Jelly Babies are NOT tough on the outside.
It's weird hearing Americans put the emphasis on different words than Brits.
British fans once threw Jelly Babies at the Beatles,American fans threw Jelly Beans instead which hurt more as harder😮🎩
Cadbury's are a British firm, hence the popularity over here.
Well no…..it was taken over by Kraft some years ago, and they changed the recipe making it , imo, disgusting. Sales fell and they say they they reversed the changes. But for me, it still tastes oily.
In the US you don't have Galaxy but you do have an American "Equivalent" called Dove.
The only candy we have is candy floss and candy canes, the rest are sweets, chocolates/confectionary
My favourite description of Hershey chocolate is "disappointment and ear wax". True!!! And to top it all off Hershey have the nerve to sell their wax and disappointment as"Cadbury". Ha!
My legend Nan worked at Nestle for decades.. she would always bring massive bags of broken chocolates every Xmas..
The orange smartie tastes like chocolate orange ! Yummy 😋
Hershey is the name of American chocolate/sweets. But when you use it as an adjective, it takes a possessive "' 's " e.g. "Hershey's chocolate". The same applies to Cadbury, Nestle, Rowntree'. etc. It sounds so jarring to hear "I like Cadbury." Because (like the word 'maths') we say "Cadbury's" e.g. "I like Cadbury's [chocolate]." No-one's going to reel over in shock & horror when they hear 'Cadbury' 'Nestle' without the 's. It just sounds kinda 'foreign' - exactly like "math".😆😆
I honestly thought all of these were sold in America too. You could've knocked me over with a feather every time you didn't recognise one 😅 They're absolute classics. You don't have Jelly Babies?!? 😲
We have jelly babies here in the colony (Australia)! We even have some chocolate flavoured jelly babies.
Fruit Pastilles tasting natural? lol what? They’re some of the sweetest sweets you can buy. They taste absolutely delicious yes, but I wouldn’t say they taste natural by a long shot 😂
American Smarties are like the sweets we call love hearts. where as our smarties are like M&Ms. Out of those you saw, my faves are crunchie and turkish delight.
M&Ms were a direct copy of Rowntree's Smarties, which are much older.
Orange and chocolate are a classic combination and very popular. It's probably the most common flavour combination with chocolate after mint. Jaffa cakes and Cointreau liqueur are other examples.
Black current is always a winner and one of the most popular flavours over here. Eaten raw black currents have quite a sharp flavour so they're sweetened in drinks and other flavourings. We had them in our garden when I was a kid along with red currents, raspberries, strawberries, gooseberries, logan berries, cherries, plums, apples, pears and rhubarb.
Cadbury Creme eggs the white and yolk are a cream fondant. I used to love them as a kid, but then Kraft bought out Cadbury and changed the recipe using cheaper ingredients so now they're sickly sweet and not nearly as nice.
Jelly babies - It's a requirement to bite their heads off!😁 They're softer than most gummies and dusted in icing sugar.
cannot beat a Chocolate Orange, i love them, my favourite
unfortunately my family dont like them
fortunately i get them all for myself
One taste of a Terry's Chocolate Orange and it will make sense
You really need to taste these. Crunchies, galaxy chocs and wine gums are better than you'd think.
Totally triggered by the incessant use of the word candy:
"Candy" is used chiefly in Canada and the US, "sweets" in the UK and Ireland, and "lollies" in Australia and New Zealand.
Quite a few years back in my job at a supermarket we were doing inventory. My philippino boss tried to stop me from eating wines gums as he thought they were acholic.
Blackcurrant is a fruit
Please don't confuse the US-made Cadbury with others around the world. Hershey bought the exclusive rights to manufacture this brand in US and uses a different recipe. The original, British Cadbury is sold in over 80 countries and is the second biggest confectionary company in the world, with about 11 percent of all global sales. Only Mars is slightly bigger. Hershey is 6th largest.
I found that many Americans like British chocolate. Tyler you really need to try a crunchie they are amazing. I used to get a terry's chocolate orange from my grandad every christmas. and i've re started the tradition with my two grandchildren.
Merry Xmas to you Tyler, your family & all the other commentators & viewers of your channel. :)

Malt is the stage of growth of grain (barley of wheat usually) just before the seeds sprout their first shoots. In barley it means that the grains have their maximum sugar and can be brewed at last.
Cadbury's in the US is made by Hersheys under licence from Cadbury's and use the same milk that they use in their Hershey's products. The reason for the taste difference is due to an additive that Hershey's added to the milk.
american chocolate is a sugar rush where as european chocolate is more of a hug!
We get most of these products DownUnder. I like to gnaw the chocolate off the Crunchie bar leaving the honeycomb which I devour after all the chocolate is gone.
Blackcurrant is delicious and is now available in the US. It is a FRUIT.
But it was banned for years in the US in 1911 due to it being a carrier of a fungus called white pine blister rust,. It was declared illegal to protect pine forests.
British milk chocolate smarties came before m&m
Blackcurrant is like blueberry but with flavour.
Aussie here, we have 99% of these. Jelly Babies are awesome 😎👍
Cadbury is from bourneville uk but was bought out by Hersheys and from that point it was never the same for us brits, bars got smaller, recipe changed, tasted different. We have a huge factory that is a great experience but haven’t been since I was a kid and now I think the town requires you to pay online before entering.
Dawn French said the Terry's chocolate orange was hers, I for one would not like to argue.
Terrys chocolate orange... is objectively the best chocolate in existence. I will be taking no feedback
'Toffee' or 'taffy' is quite a general term that would include caramel.
Crunchies have been around for over 50 yrs in the UK it’s one of the old favourites . And black current is a fruit grown on a vine which grows to about 5feet or 1.5 meters it’s used all sorts of ways from making cordial , cider , jams , sweets and not allowed in the US goodness knows why the berries are yummy with icecream and very nutritious.vit ++. After 8 is a very thin wafer Square covered with dark chocolate with peppermint filling .yes a desirable taste needed .jelly babies Aero , Turkey Delight have been around over 50 years and the eggs came out the swinging 60’s 🤷♀️
It's not grown on any sort of vine! Blackurrants are a fruit produced by a small to medium sized bush or shrub - no climbing involved, it's only maybe a metre high and very easy to grow.
I haven’t had any of these for years (apart from chocolate orange) and now I have my Christmas list! Really craving jelly babies now 😂
