Are there any dietary or allergy considerations to know about?

These sweets contain ingredients that may affect people with specific allergies or dietary restrictions, so check labels before serving. Notable components include wheat and gelatine, and some pieces contain coconut and sulphites.

• Contains gelatine — not suitable for vegans or some vegetarians.
• Includes wheat and sulphites — check if you have related sensitivities.
• Packaged with coconut and liquorice extract — flavour notes to note for allergic consumers.

How should I store the carton to keep flavours and texture fresh?

Keep the carton sealed and stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve chewiness and prevent melting or stickiness. If the original packaging has been opened, transfer remaining sweets to an airtight container to maintain freshness and texture.

• Room temperature storage, away from heat sources and humidity.
• Airtight jar or resealable bag after opening to prevent drying out.
• Consume within a reasonable timeframe for best texture and taste.
