Hope & Greenwood

January 25th, 2010

I used to keep a picture in the front of my diary of an old-fashioned sweet shop.  You know the kind: shelves stacked with glass jars brimming with brightly-coloured sweets.  The Juliette Binoche in me always quite fancied being a ‘purveyor of splendid confectionery’.  However these days there would be little point in me following this dream as Hope & Greenwood do it so perfectly.

They have stores in Dulwich & Covent Garden (which would be perfect if you happen to be taking a trip to Benjamin Pollocks as per my last post), but they are also sold in some pretty lovely other places:  Liberty, Selfridges, Fortum & Mason (to name but a few) and of course you can buy them online from their site.  I find the Miss Hope’s Jolly Mixture a very exciting treat and the Sugar free Gummy Bears a good one to ensure the children don’t bounce off the ceiling with too much sugar!
