I'm sure I saw a lancashire mix in an old fashioned sweet shop in Canterbury......it had mint balls, brandy balls,Kendal mint cake some green and yellow spirals shaped sweet.scented satins and some other sweets I could only guess at....since I didn't buy any. Like mick says maybe they were just concocted from the leavings of several different jars, and named to get shut of them.

I went in and bought some chocolate coated chewing nuts, Toasted teacakes, and buttered brazils.......and came out 3 pounds lighter in the purse area ( 2lbs heavier in the hip area - and that was just thinking about eating them)
