'A World of Pure Imagination'

At Mr. Swainston's, we believe that buying your favourite sweets should transport you back to your childhood. Those memories of entering the sweet shop and ordering a quarter of your favourite sweets. Seeing them weighed and then poured into that paper bag.

Whether your favourite was a Kola Kube, a Rosey Apple or even an Aniseed Ball, we want you to experience those memories
