Everyday is better when we end with something sweet


One of my favourite things to do is settle down for a movie and put together a big bowl of mixed sweets – it’s like when you used to pop into Woolworths and get a pick’n'mix. Oh gosh, I do love a good sweet treat! Especially when they are a fizzy sweet treat. Ever since the Vegan Store discontinued their penny sweet range there has been a sweet-shaped hole in my diet – since then there are a few other brands who have given us fizzy sweets, and Need Sweets are one of those!
When Need Sweets got in touch to let me know about their new business, I was super excited! Everything on the site is vegetarian or vegan, and clearly labelled. Heaven. I am absolutely in love with the Fizzy Fish – they remind me of being a kid. And also because they are Trout-shaped. They taste like crunchy bursts of sherbet, so good. And fizzy cola bottles have always been a firm favourite! They also offer marshmallows, fudge, coconut ice, kola cubes, flying saucers… Now they just need to make jelly beans vegan!
Did everyone have a nice Valentine’s Day? Mid-morning I was delighted to receive a huge bunch of flowers, with a reference to Breaking Bad. This guy knows what I like, haha! I didn’t think he could top last year’s flowers, which were a reference to The Office, but I think he might just have! Rasputin was pretty smitten with them, too. Oh that cat – he just loves to chew on plastic. Sigh.
When I got home from the soup-run in the evening, I found Trout cooking up a storm! He made the most amazing 2-and-a-half course meal, including one of my favourite foods; bruschetta. That is one sweet man.

Do you love sweets? Have you tried Need Sweets? How was your Valentine’s Day?








Eeee I am a huge sweet lover. I used to get the pick n mix in Woolworths once a week when I was a kid and loved travelling in the car and when I saw a service station I’d be like…’Daaaaad…’ just so we could stop and get some sweets hehe!
These look amazing, I used to order some from veggiestuff.com 
Glad you were spoilt on valentine’s day you lucky girly! xxxx
I really was spoilt! The sweets are so good x
I love sweets too! Great that you can find vegan ones, fizzy fish are the best!
I’d never heard of them before, but I’m converted!
It’s not just Dovi who eats plastic?!
It’s so annoying!! No plastic pocket is safe!
What a beautiful bunch of flowers…I don’t get it when girls say they’re not bothered about flowers and boxes of chocolates – they’ll always be romantic to me
As for the sweets….i’m a sour and fizzy gal all the way
Cola bottles and sour apples = best cinema treats as a child
ooh….and chocolate peanuts but that’s another story
xx
I’m more of a chocolate raisins girl, haha!
Oh my gosh! Have just been on the Need Sweets website, and i really do NEED everything in it! Thanks for the heads up, will definitely be ordering from them, yum! x x x
Yay! I hope you enjoy them! x
