Amen, with this doc in the house, an Aniseed Ring a day definitely keeps the doc away! Just…read morekidding! I included this Dr Candy on the itinerary when I put on about nine twilight chocolate walking tours last summer. I introduced the guests to their delicious gelatine free chocolate rocks. I also ensured there were a few left over for me for the train ride home. The guests got to taste on the spot, as well as take a few more home. Perfect with the Bulgarian chocolate fro-yo across the road. Also love the gluten free lollies. Looking out for the pink and white stripes.

I thought an apple a day was supposed to keep the doctor away, but that was before I was introduced…read moreto Dr. Candy. I must admit I usually avoid these shopping centre lolly shops, but something about spying the good doctor made me wander over. Then amongst the bright and surprisingly well-stocked shelves I spotted the mint leaves. Argh. My weakness. At $3.60 for 100g, these lollies are by no means the cheapest about, but who can resist a pick-n-mix? Turns out, not I!

(Belch!) Petit Fours: After Eight Mints (Groan...). If you were born in the Mother Land and have sugar issues, this is your place. Either show discipline and turn up with $10 in coins and pretend you're enjoying a slightly inflated re-inaction of your visit to the corner shop as a kid OR take the credit card and buy a three figured amount of calorific nostalgia and promise yourself you won't eat it all in a week. If you're a fish crisp connoisseur then this is the place for you: Walkers Prawn Cocktail, Skips or Scampi Fries (which actually smell like Gents toilets but taste great!). You can buy online too!

THIS PLACE HAS MOVED!!!! It is now located at Level 1, Piccadilly Arcade, 210 Pitt Street Sydney…read more Setting foot inside this place is like the fabric of space and time have folded and you have been transported home to any local shop in the UK or Ireland. Screw your markets and bazaars with their aromas of herbs and spices, nothing awakens the senses like the playful crinkle of a monster munch packet or the shine in your eye when the sun catches off the packaging of a Capri Sun (The only place I have found in Australia that stocks them FYI). Expect a friendly greeting from the Welsh lady who's on the counter and get lost in the selection of stuff you'd forgotten you'd missed. Apart from Taste Ireland, which I have also reviewed there is nowhere that I have come across that has as much selection as these guys. While it is mostly sweets and confectionery there is a huge selection of grocery items available too. You name it they pretty much have it. from washing up liquids, to powders, sauces, stuffing, cordials, soft drinks and football merchandise as well. The selection is absolutely massive. if you're missing home and some of your favorite grub pop in and see these guys. It'll be money and time well spent. If you can't make it into the city, they do online ordering too.

I stumbled across this Aladdin's cave of British delicacies by accident, but it has now become a…read morestaple part of my weekly food shopping. If you're homesick and need to get your hands on a packet of Wether's Originals, Mint Humbugs or Licquorice Allsorts, this is the place to go. It's stacked wall-to-ceiling with jars and packets of British sweets. For the non-British people, this is also worth a visit, for a true taste of Britain. Of course, you pay a handsome sum for the chance to eat proper British food (including Marmite), but in my book, it's worth every penny.

The presentation and raw selection on offer was immense and I was immediately lost in the selection of my edible souvenir I kept saying I'd save but couldn't resist downing. Got a 12 pack 1kg deal and loved the fact that I could select multiple flavors not just 12 of one . For the price 8.99 aud I was ecstatic value was huge obviously but the flavor blew me away! Everything from Cabernet, cherry, mango, passion fruit etc was of course clean but very flavorful and left a smile on my face after every bite. Everyone was so nice there and listened to the foreign American go on and on how nothing back in the states comes close! I'm gonna be a regular when I finally move and places like this help me count the days!
