Interflora “Sweet Nostalgia” hamper



As I type I am a very happy Caked Crusader. My fingers are slightly sticky as I have been unable to resist unwrapping a fruit salad sweet from the gorgeous Interflora
Sweet Nostalgia hamper; this is just one of the many amazing hampers that Interflora have in their range.


The quality of this hamper started the minute I undid the box – this beautiful wicker chest has leather straps with working brass buckles. I have it earmarked for holding toiletries in my bathroom as soon as the small matter of eating all the sweets is dealt with!


Ooh, the excitement – what’s in the box?


Goodies galore would be the short answer but for those of you who like details (this is basically a checklist of where my pocket money went between the ages of 5-10 years old!):

Rosey Apples 100g
Cola Cubes 100g
Haribo Tangfastics
100g Haribo Jelly Beans
100g Cadbury Chocolate Eclairs
100g Haribo Cola Bottles
100g Curly Wurly x 2
Love Hearts
Refreshers
Nestle Rolos 52g
Flying Saucers x 10
Sherbet Fountain x 2
Paynes Poppets Toffee x 2
Refresher Chews x 4
Giant Double Lollies x 2
Fruit Salad x 10
Black Jacks x 10
Mars Milky Way 26g x 2
Ice Cream Cones x 2 (I’m very excited about these as I’ve never had them before)

I couldn’t actually fit all the contents into one photo, so here are three photos!


Thanks to
Interflora for sending me this treat – it certainly brightened up an otherwise mundane Tuesday evening. I think it would brighten up the day of any recipient – who wouldn’t want this as a gift?

  1. Ooooo! Those icecreams are on sale in our old-fashioned sweet shop/stationers/toy shop up here on the hill. Lucky you have a sweet tooth, even I can hear my fillings scream on eating the 'occasional' one of these.

  3. Wow! Lucky you! That's so cool, I'd always wondered what those hampers were like and if they were any good. There's a lot of sweets in there I've never tried, but would love to! Yum! That will last you a while!

  5. Oh wow. Wow. Wow.

    What a wonderful thing.

    I think that you could bake something with the curly wurlys!

    The only things missing are popping candy and Wham bars!
