Have you ever heard of a Rhubarb and Custard or Pink Shrimps? How about Flying Saucers or Fruit Salads? They’re not what you think they are – they’re actually traditional British sweets, and very tasty ones at that!
Or are you an expat from the UK feeling nostalgic about iconic treats such as Curly Wurlies, Wham Bars, and Sherbet Fountains? There was nothing quite like going down to your local sweet shop, picking out your favourites and then having them weighed out. Those were the days indeed...
Asia’s first Mr Simms Olde Sweet Shoppe epened in October 2014, bringing a taste of Britain to Hong Kong. They sell all kinds of British confectionery, so why not rekindle with old favourites or try something new?
With hundreds of different sweets and chocolates, there really is something for everyone – you might just find your new favourite sweet treat! Take it easy on those Wham Bars though, they can’t be held responsible for anyone’s teeth getting stuck together!
With three shops in Central (37 Lyndhurst Terrace, Central), Wanchai (38 Spring Garden Lane, Wan Chai) and Mongkok (Shop B2-02, Langham Place, Mongkok), you are never far away from being transported to a fantasy world packed from floor to ceiling with over 1,000 confectionery treats. Those who remember can rekindle fond memories of childhood dreams, and those who seek adventure can satisfy their desire to explore inconceivable new tastes.
The walls of Mr Simms Olde Sweet Shoppe are packed full of hundreds of traditional and retro British confectionery items, including traditional pick n' mix type sweets such as black jacks, fizzy watermelons, and cola bottles; paper bags of goodies like bon bons, wine gums and pear drops, and other cult classics you may remember from your own childhood like love hearts, gobstoppers, white mice and wham bars. All of that plus a ginormous selection of chocolates, toffees, fudge and other confectionary means that you are most definitely spoilt for choice!
Stepping through the doors of Mr Simms Olde Sweet Shoppe is truly like entering a time warp.
