I and I'm sure many others on GTP have a sweet tooth. I'm quite partial to these particular Jelly Beans but I can only find them in one shop around my area:

So, what are your favourite sweets?
 
Classic Haribo gummi bears (the ones from Germany, not the US, with the German labeling. For some reason the German ones taste so much better (and I've taste-tested both kinds side by side on multiple occasions)), Now & Laters, Jolly Ranchers, Starburst (especially the FaveREDs collection), and sour gummi worms (the good ones, not any of the many bad-tasting imitators) are general the ones I go for the most.

I love mint imperials, don't know why just love them, if only they didn't have so much sugar in.

I also have recently fallen in love with the Co-Operatives foamy banana's. I must have eaten about 20 packets in the last 2 weeks, they just taste so nice and have the perfect texture, half way inbetween gummy and chalky.
 
Your all weaklings. You don't love sweets till you eat 5kg of picknmix in 1 afternoon.

Whilst watching programs about Hitler on the history channel :lol:
 
Erm, too many to name. Cola bottles and mint imperials spring to mind, mainly cos' I had some cola bottles yesterday and could really eat some mints right now :lol:

:drool:

Yet Canada doesn't have them, it's just absurd. Their gold bears aren't bad at all either. If I had to go with something that isn't candy it would be stroopwafels.
 
Tough one. Disregarding chocolates it would either be gummi bears, smarties or these:

Lacasitos, basically a Spanish smartie that I discovered on a geological mapping field trip last year. The sheer amount of E-numbers meant that 5-10 of them would give enough of a kick to get straight up and work :D Bit of a crash after though! After my Morocco trip I got the guy who was driving back through Europe to pick me up 20 euros worth, which turned out to be 40 tubes :D

Uh-oh.. forgot about Dolly Mix and Jelly Babies!
 
I like all types of candies, from Skittles, to Chocolate, to Licorice. It depends on my mood for a particular day but usually fruity candies is what I mostly buy, like Gummies.
 
I've always been partial to just a simple bar of chocolate. No perks, no complexity, just a big 100 gram chunk of chocolate.
 
Chicos - chocolate Jelly Babies

I also find it hard to pass up M & Ms
 
My favorite sweets are cookies and cream chocolate bars. Either that or vanilla chocolate bars. If none of those two are present I look for regular chocolate bars.
