I thought you must have meant something like that. LOL. Do you mean the chocolate drops with sprinkles on one side?

Britpilot, you're being a monumental twat. Your first post(s) on this site have been a series of requests for people to forward mail to you which, even if I'd known you on this site for years, I would find distinctly fishy.

You're asking total strangers to allow you to use their mailing address. I'm sorry, but I sincerely hope that nobody on this site is stupid enought to give you (a total stranger) their mailing address.

Grow up. Think about what you're asking, and about its implications in terms of people's privacy and the potential for abuse. Right now I don't know if you're a con-man or just very, very naive, but either way you can only expect the responses you're going to get on these boards.

No, they were definitely pontefract cakes - used to get them from the little sweet shop on the way home - maybe it was a 'local' variation...

I move around too much and have to get my mail forwarded so I can't help you in that way. I do know someone who would be able to help. You can mail them to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Washington, D.C. , 20500. I am sure you will get a good response from them.

Despise licquorice.... but it is the national treat of Holland. Maybe the OH would like the Pontefract cakes, I'll stick to Eccles cakes.

The image shows its a haribo product so you might be able to pick it up at a store that sells the English haribo products.
