Brilliant Service
I have just received my first order from you and felt compelled to contact you and say thank you so much for the brilliant service.

How wonderful to be transported back to my childhood by the familiar aromas of all my old favourites, especially the Grays Tea Cakes, which my Nana used to sell in her general shop so many years ago.

Also the Toffee Swirls which my other Nanny used to give to me and my sister every Saturday as a treat.

We've just found out that one of our customers is competing at the Olympics!

Jeanette Kwakye, the British 100m champ no less, stocked up with her favourites from A Quarter Of... before she headed off east.
How cool is that?

Soor Plooms… absolutely delicious and very very fruity – these Soor Plooms are made by hand, and the flavour is… well… exceedingly plummy! They’re also a stunning bright green colour… just as a traditional Soor Ploom should be!

love our cartoons?

They’re drawn especially for us by superstar cartoonist Colin Whittock.

He used to work on Whizzer and Chips - the comic that inspired the look of A Quarter Of...

His cartoons appear all over the website. Aren't they fab???

whatever happened to spangles?

One of our most requested sweets!

They had two types: one pack contained Assorted Fruit flavours and the other was Old English flavour.

They were also shaped a bit like Tunes with a circular dip on either side...

Sadly not even we can get hold of them anymore!

you know you're a
child of the 80s when..

The words "Banana Splits" make you start singing (in your mind of course!)
