About Bonds of London Jelly Beans

About Bonds of London Jelly Beans

Everyone has a colour they hand back. Everyone also has a colour they claim not to like, then quietly take two of. Bonds of London Jelly Beans are that bag: the one from the sweet shelf back home that went in the school bag full and came home empty.

It starts with sharing. It ends with someone tipping the last few straight into their palm and calling it tidying up.

Bright, chewy and no fuss, these are jelly beans the way you remember them from Britain.

Keep a bag in the glovebox. Tell nobody.

Frequently asked questions about Bonds of London Jelly Beans

Q: Is this the UK version?

A: It is, the same British bag you would find on the sweet shelf at home. We send it out from within Canada, so it never has to clear customs on the way to you.

Q: How big is the bag?

A: It is a 130g bag. Enough to share, if you are feeling generous, which is a big if.

Q: Would it make a good gift for someone who misses Britain?

A: Very much so. It tucks neatly into a parcel of British sweets, and the recipient will know exactly what it is before the bag is even open.

More about Bonds of London Jelly Beans

A bag of sweets is a small institution in Britain. It goes on the long car journey, into the cinema in a coat pocket and onto the arm of the sofa on a Saturday night. Jelly beans have always had a seat at that table, usually right next to whoever is guarding the bag.

People in Canada go looking for Bonds because of the name on the front. It is the bag they bought with pocket money, and spotting it again sets off a run of memories nobody asked for, mostly about a sibling who ate all the good ones.

The bag holds 130g, which is a decent handful for two or a whole film for one honest person. Keep it in a cool cupboard, fold the top over between raids and it will wait patiently. It rarely has to wait long.

Jelly beans tend to travel with friends. Most people who pick up a bag of Bonds also fill the basket with other British sweets and a bar or two of chocolate from home, then pretend it is for the kids.

The story of Bonds of London Jelly Beans

By Aaron A.  |  October 13, 2026

One handful is a lie

Nobody in history has eaten one jelly bean. You take a few to be polite, and you are back in the bag before the kettle has boiled. The name on this one is Bonds of London, and if you grew up with a proper sweet shop round the corner, that name might ring a bell. When it was sold in 2016, the trade press described it as one of the UK's oldest sweet businesses. Not bad company for a bag you will finish by Tuesday.

Read the full story

The jars on the top shelf

The founder of the company that bought Bonds of London said it has historically been known for traditional British sweets such as pick'n'mix jars and hanging bags. Its best-known sweet jars include retro classics such as sherbet lemons and wine gums. If you ever stood at a counter staring up at the big glass jars while someone behind it waited for you to make up your mind, you know the feeling. Still agonising, frankly.

New owners, same face

In April 2016 Bonds of London was bought by Innovative Bites, a US-foods wholesaler, in a multimillion-pound deal. Innovative Bites was founded in 2008 by Vishal Madhu. The managing director, Philip Courtenay-Luck, stayed on with the business after the acquisition. A year later Innovative Bites went on to acquire pick'n'mix wholesaler Hancocks Cash & Carry in a deal worth about £100m. Clearly somebody over there takes pick'n'mix as seriously as you did at the age of nine.

Nobody's fault, apparently

A bag of sweets is a small democracy that never quite works. On a long car journey, in front of the telly, passed down a row at the pictures, the bag goes round and comes back lighter and slightly sticky. Somebody always rummages like they are panning for gold. Somebody else swears they only had two. The last few at the bottom are nobody's fault. They never are.
