Nostalgia, Shared
"Takes me back 60 years. I bought pear drops for the walk home and rhubarb and custard for my grandchildren."
"We were staying near the coast and wanted small gifts for everyone on our street. The sweet bags were easy to carry, and each person got a flavour they remembered."
"Why did we choose Larg Road Sweets? Because the jars made choosing together part of the afternoon, and the flavours felt properly familiar."
