Few sweets have the old-fashioned charm of a traditional humbug, and Maxons Black and White Humbugs continue that classic confectionery tradition. These hard-boiled sweets feature the familiar black and white striped appearance that generations of lolly lovers recognise, along with a refreshing mint flavour that makes them a popular choice for both everyday enjoyment and nostalgic sweet selections. Packed in a substantial 3.18kg jar, they are ideal for businesses, shared spaces, and customers who appreciate traditional confectionery.
Each humbug delivers a satisfying hard candy texture that slowly releases its minty flavour as it dissolves. Unlike chewy or gummy sweets, humbugs are designed to be enjoyed over time, making them a favourite for those who prefer a longer-lasting sweet. Their distinctive striped appearance also gives them a classic look that stands out in confectionery displays and sweet jars.
The large 3.18kg jar makes these humbugs particularly suitable for cafes, reception areas, accommodation venues, gift shops, corner stores, and traditional confectionery retailers. They can be displayed in jars, sold individually, included in pick-and-mix selections, or offered as a complimentary treat to customers and guests. Their timeless appeal means they attract both customers looking for nostalgic favourites and younger generations discovering classic sweets for the first time.
Maxons is a respected British confectionery manufacturer with a long history of producing traditional boiled sweets using time-honoured methods. Their range is well known for maintaining the classic flavours and appearances that confectionery enthusiasts expect. These Black and White Humbugs are a great example of that heritage, combining a familiar mint flavour with the traditional striped design that has remained popular for decades.
For events and gifting, these humbugs can also be used in retro-themed sweet tables, confectionery hampers, and decorative candy jars. The monochrome colour scheme offers something a little different from brightly coloured sweets, while the mint flavour provides a refreshing alternative to fruit-based confectionery. Their simple appearance and traditional flavour make them a versatile addition to a wide variety of confectionery ranges.
