Right im attempting to relive my childhood for about twenty seconds while i scoff some sweets.

When i was 5/6, my mum took us once a week to morrisons on the shop, and we were allowed one packet of sweets.

I always chose these jelly shapes on card. You got like 6-8 in a pack and they came in shapes like spiderman and stuff. It was proper jelly too, not chewy like cola bottles etc.

The closest ive got are these...... http://www.chocbuttons.co.uk/sweet-shop/whats-new/whatsnew/scary-jelly-on-card.html

but i never had the scary ones. Only the character ones. Anyone have any ideas? Im trying to get them for a big family christmas present as a jokey gift for everyone on christmas day

Ta!

Go into a Spar. They still sell them. I know exactly what you mean, but no idea what they're called.
