York Fruits & Newberry Jewels: Reliving the Magic of Classic Christmas Treats

Era of Innocence: Confections That Defined a Generation

Christmas during the 70’s and 80’s in the UK wasn’t just about festive décor, heartwarming carols, and eagerly anticipated gifts. It was also about the anticipation of indulging in the nation’s cherished sweets. Among these, two reigned supreme, evoking powerful memories: York Fruits and Newberry Jewels.

York Fruits: A Taste of Yuletide Magic

For many, a box of York Fruits was synonymous with the festive season. Their refined, sugar-coated exterior gave way to luscious, fruit-flavored soft jellies inside, each echoing the flavour of Britain’s freshest fruits. They weren’t just confections but an experience – a return to a simpler time when candies were crafted with pride and savoured slowly, each bite a delightful moment captured in time.

Newberry Jewels: The Unsung Symphony of the Season

Though equally cherished, Newberry Jewels presented a twist to the traditional jellied sweet. With an unassuming appearance, they concealed a secret – a liquid centre bursting with vibrant flavour. It was this unexpected surprise that made them a classic, shared between grandparents, parents, and children alike.
