Check dates of American Sweets

Poorly stored items sent that have melted and discolored the outer box. Several others close to best before date or expired and stuck together. Initial response from Sara when messaged on website about issues then no further replies to any messages.
Find another supplier these are not worth the hassle and £20 of sweets thrown away.
Update - contacted by Sara who apologised and refunded for the short dated sweets.

this is why you never change companies

Ordered on line Friday ,they picked it up Tuesday sent it out by DPD on Thursday, sent us no date of arrival nor did they send tracking number. got delivered Friday nobody in as did not know what day is coming . DPD did not leave anything to say that they have been, so contacted sweets and candy by e-mail they then gave me a tracking number and said it was at DPD awaiting re delivery. contacted DPD but they said it has been sent back to sweets and candy now 11days after placing order on website still waiting for return call. i wish i had stuck to my original supplier. i provide sweets to the local special needs schools as a donation and even though this was a trail order i normally spend 200 per month but never spend a penny with this company . seem like a part time seller from the garage . i am very disappointed as are the kids never trust them.

Really pleased with my first order

Really pleased with my first order. The website is really easy to use and delivery was fast. I ordered 4 x 1kg bags ( buttons, chocolate candy's, chocolate fudge and strawberry pencils) all tasted great and at just over £5 a bag an absolute bargain as most other sites range between £12-£15 (a bag) for the same thing. Also ordered fruit pencils and chocolate orange nibbles also tasted fab. Will definitely use again 😁

So glad to have discovered Sweets and Candy.

Am delighted to have found Sweets and Candy. Great to be able to get some of the old things I used to buy from the sweet shop such as large pear drops. Originally bought a big bag via Amazon but decided to google the actual company and found so much choice on their website (plus considerably cheaper than buying via Amazon). Will definitely be ordering more very soon. Order came within a couple of days so really great speed of delivery.

If you like very hard sweets then fill your boots…

Very disappointed with this company, as their quality of sweets appears quite different to ours! My sister bought my partner a huge amount of various retro type sweets for his birthday, but unfortunately, they were all very hard. Pink Shrimps, Coconut Mushrooms, Dolly Mixture to name but a few were far too hard to eat, the sweets should have been softer and much easier to eat and enjoy. When I wrote to Sara she responded very quickly, but when I said that I didn’t have an order number as they were a gift, that was it communication immediately stopped. I wrote again today, but so far, again no response. The sweets were just within their use by date. Terrible customer service!
