Sugar, Glucose Syrup, Citric Acid E330, Natural Flavour, Natural Colours E100, E141 Once extremely popular with children of the UK and Ireland especially during the 1980's/1990's, apple drops have since become a rarity with the rabid increase in large newsagent franchises, most of whom no longer stock these tradtional and well established sweets as the demand simply is not there. Where apple drops where once favoured by children and adults alike for the quantity in which they were given, one would ask for a quart (quarter pound) of apple drops and receive a bag of roughly 25 units, now they are resigned to either the top shelf of smaller independent shops or bought at an extremely inflated price from companys that have remarketed them, ironically, as a so called higher quality sweet. |
