British people question :)

Quick q - is it easy to get Halloween themed marshmallows in the shops or would you order them online? Is there a popular sweets brand that would do them? Like, google tells me Peeps is in the UK but more popular in the US/Canada.

I don't buy many sweets, but I'd imagine someone like Haribo or Barrets would bung a halloween pic on a bag of ordinary marshmallows. Don't know if you can get special Halloween shaped marshmallows though.

Never heard of peeps!

Huh, thanks. Of course, those brands mean nothing to me either :)

I think Liadt must mean Bassetts, not Barrets! And, yeah, I can't say I've looked, but usually you just get marshmallows or mini marshmallows over here & more often than not just supermarket's own brand (Like these). It's not impossible, though, as Halloween-themed stuff is continually on the rise due to the influence of US media and the internet.
