Autumn is the time of year when many food & drink
businesses usher in a new wave of range additions, seasonal selections and
packaging refreshes as food & drink businesses reset for the all-important run up to Christmas.
The ‘confectionery creatives’ at Stockley’s certainly haven’t
been idle, which is why this September will see the highly anticipated arrival
of Chocolate Candy Cane Sweets to their flourishing gift carton offer PLUS
a packaging refresh for their time-honoured Lancashire Mix
Chocolate
Candy Cane Sweets
Resplendent in their red & white striped, barber sign
livery, this bite-sized take on the classic Victorian candy cane combines a
cool peppermint shell with a rich, dark chocolate core.
“Here at Stockley’s, we wanted to combine all the best
traits of nostalgic seasonal classics with an unexpected modern twist. In this instance we’re talking about a
timeless cooling peppermint that cuts through the crisp confectionery shell
with a decadent, dark chocolate centre; creating an enchanting, two-textured
treat with a decadent twist.”

Lancashire
Mix
In recent times Stockley’s has been wrongfooted by the
perennial success of its Lancashire Mix, a gloriously random jumble of Pear Drops, Rhubarbs
& Custards, Rosy Apples, Strawberries & Creams AND chewy centred Cola
Cubes & Pineapple Chunks that offers a proud balance of bold flavours, happy
childhood memories and enviable
'sweet stamina' (don’t dissolve in blink of an eye).
The
Lancashire prefix is essentially the tipping of the hat to the region’s proud
confectionery roots and a long overdue celebration of so many cult sugar
confectionery classics being housed together in one generously proportioned
bag.
