Sweets around 1975

[Tam Hamill]

Does anyone remember sweets called " Blobs ",i can't be the only one surely? I think it was Trebor who made them and there were different flavours but my favourite was cola and the centre was soft, HELP!!

[Hilts]

Yep. I remember them They were little boiled swwts in a paper tubed paclet. I can't remember them having soft centres though some definitley had sherbert in the middle. Cola was my favourite too.

Ooops crap typing, should say sweets and packet.

Yay I remember Blobs and they did have soft centres! My favourites were the toffee apple ones - which (I think) had an apple flavoured outer and runny toffee flavoured goo in the centre. Or the other way round... There may have also been a strawberry/cream combo one too.

Yep. The flavours were Toffee Apple (green & brown swirled boiled sweet, toffee stuff in the middle), Cider (think Cydrax only sweeter), Strawberries and cream (powdered cream centre). They were made by Trebor and had an advertising campaign featuring a yellow monster in a green hat that covered his eyes who was a fan of the sweets, much to the disgust of his garbage-munching counterparts. Later on, Trebor used the same moulds to make Double Agents, choc lime sweets with a secret agent theme.
