Bonds of London Chocolate Oranges - 110g

Chocolate and orange is one of Britain's favourite pairings, and these sit firmly at the sweet shop end of it. Small, cheap thrills, the kind bought with pocket money on the walk home from school and finished before the front door.

People in Canada search for them by name because a description never quite does it. You can tell a friend about the flavour all evening. Handing them one settles the matter in about four seconds, and then they want the pack.

The 110g pack is easy to live with. Keep it sealed in a cool cupboard and it will wait for you, in theory. In practice it ends up in a lunchbox, a desk drawer or the glovebox for long drives, where it is shared with exactly nobody.

They tend to go in the basket alongside other old sweet shop favourites from our shelves: the fizzy ones, the chewy ones, the boiled ones that last a full episode. Build your own pick and mix and pretend it is for the kids.
