One of my colleague runs a 'tuck shop' for the office. For quite some time Freddo's have been a staple. 20p each he charges. They are popular though.

I have to say I don't use the tuck shop.

I saw some coconut ice the other day .....not seen that for years 

We've started selling it (I work for a sweetie company)  right now I've got about three dozen bars just feet from my desk.. together with nougat, irn bru fudge and peanut brittle.   it's a hard life....

Look you can keep the peanut brittle Kaffs ...but I'll have some of the rest  

What is peanut brittle?

I'm going to try and track them down this weekend!

done deal - it's my favourite.

It's peanuts in a sort of brittle caramel CS  

Ok  ....fair exchange is no robbery  

food of the gods.... peanuts, held together with brittle toffee.....

I recognize it now  but trying to think what a associate it with - fetes etc i reckon.

yes, I think all of those things, coconut ice, fudges etc... are all from old fashioned home made sweets, before the invention of Freddo's and Mars and Popping Candy...

Yes, I saw the coconut ice at the seaside Although they used to do it at M&S a couple of years ago ...

My mum used to make something called "tablet" which was on the sugary side to say the least!

Freddo's are awesome! And i could have 3 a day on my 'diet' and still lose weight!! Curly Wurly is another I'm now a fan of.

I like curly wurly Jen Can you tell I have a sweet tooth  

I do love chocolate Baz, Cadbury giant buttons used to be a real addiction when i was preg with the youngest.... Think that's why i went up a few dress sizes as i ate a whole big bag every night! I also really like Galaxy cookie crumble..... I've had a few too many twirls this week though... but they were yum so who cares

He bought them from one of those company outlet type shops. But I understand the Co-op also sell them.

My dad's favourite   He always bought a quarter of every Friday night;  I liked the chocolate covered one that Maynard's used to make.  They used to be huge slabs and the shop assistant used to smash it in to manageable pieces with a little silver coloured hammer.

I'm rather partial to Daim bars now and then;  I have no idea what a Freddo Frog is 

Cosi

I'm none the wiser but thank you, Jen   

Yea i was thinking Co-op might be a good starting place.

Seriously?

Never seen them before, CS  

But then again, I'm not much of a choccy fan (unless it's a Daim or Crunchie urge).  I like Walnut Whips too....my husband, as a joke, was given a pack for his birthday in May.  The ****** still hasn't opened them   It's now down to a battle of wills (or a sneaky replacement pack after I've demolished the original one) 

So they will never get opened, but never go out of date either!!

They are at the bargain basement end of the market compared with those that you mention.I sort of recall them as a lunch box filler along the lines of club, taxi, blue riband - albeit chocolate rather than wafer/biscuit.

Maybe.  Maybe not  

I might replace them with a Freddo just to spite him
