I crave sticky butter mint balls Liquorice allsorts from the candy stalls Orange smarties, my favourite treat Violet crumbles I just love to eat English toffees for me to masticate Chocolate drops make me salivate Aniseed balls would paint my tongue red Nougat or should I choose fruit gums instead Dime bars and snickers too much temptation Yikes! my waistline spread’s caused aggravation!
