Barratt Retro Sweets

Barratt offers a delightful assortment of retro sweets that are must-have stock for pick n mix displays. Barratt’s charismatic classics include Foam Bananas and Shrimps, Jelly Beans, Dolly Mixture and Jelly Love Hearts – bringing fruity flavours and chewy goodness to any range. For those shoppers keen for a real nostalgic treat, Barratt Milk Bottles are a delightfully British favourite. These milk-flavoured gums are the original milky sweets, and alongside the classic Milk Bottles, there is also the Strawberry Milkshake variant! With a dusty coating, Barratt Milk Bottles offer a creamy, nostalgic taste that will enhance any retro range. Similarly, Barratt Jelly Babies, also available in 3kg bulk bags, have stood the test of time as well as any pick n mix sweet. Their soft and chewy jelly texture matches perfectly with a range of flavours and has a powdered coating that really enhances the old-school experience.

Which Barratt Sweets are the Best for Sherbet Lovers?

For those craving a fizzy kick, sherbet sweets are an excellent choice. Barratt has some particularly popular treats that revolve around the sour-but-sweet powder, and they’ve been sweetshop favourites for decades. With a liquorice stick to extract the sherbet, the Sherbet Fountain and its iconic yellow packaging are British confectionery royalty. The same can be said of the Dip dab, which pairs a strawberry-flavoured lollipop with melon-flavoured sherbet. Both are popular choices that fans of fizzy sweets will find hard to resist!

Which Barratt Sweets are Vegetarian and Vegan?

Many Barratt sweets are suitable for vegetarians and vegans, including Barratt Jelly Love Hearts, Dip Dab, Fruit Salad Drops and Barratt Jelly Beans! However, it is always important to check the ingredients and dietary information before labelling stock in store or online.

Can You Still Buy Barratt Frosties Sweets?

Unfortunately, you can no longer buy Barratt Frosties. The line was discontinued back in 2015, although there are other cola-flavoured sweets that you can offer for shoppers who still have a taste for them. Royale Kola cubes are the closest match, with their hard red texture, but there is nothing similar in the Barratt range.
