    I made matchmakers for many years in York, before Nestle closed down the factory to make it in to apartments. The crunchy part is a boiled sweet with flavouring, ground into crystals. When we did mint flavouring days (We had orange and mint at the time) people would start crying when they met you in the corridor because the mint was so strong. The chocolate is also a mix of milk and dark chocolate.

    Oh Guys, didn't the fact that the Matchmaker box said 'honeycomb' give you a clue as to what was inside ? Quality Street is a collection of toffees, chocolates and other sweets, first manufactured in 1936 by Mackintosh's in Halifax, West Yorkshire, England. For some reason, it was named after a play 'Quality Street'. It's sold in either boxes or tins. Nestlé took over production in 1988

  • @jennetscarborough5145
    @jennetscarborough5145 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +12

    Honeycomb AKA Cinder Toffee/Sea Foam/Puff Candy is made by making a caramel, and while still hot, adding Bicarbonate of Soda (Baking Soda), which causes it to bubble madly, then pouring into a lined tray to cool. It cools to a dry, crunchy texture and can be broken into chunks.
    If you have tried a Cadbury Crunchie bar, it's also the filling of that. If you haven't tried it, I recommend it.
    If I recall correctly, Mint Matchmakers are made by mixing peppermint oil directly into the chocolate, and then adding small sugar crystals into the mix for crunch (and Orange Matchmakers are made the same way just with orange oil instead).

    The confusion is that Pontefract cakes do actually taste like liquorice, but a lot of black liquorice candies have aniseed added so you've probably only tasted liquorice with aniseed added before, liquorice tea is delicious. Matchmakers were one of those things we'd always have at xmas as a kid, back then there was only two flavours mint and orange and I always loved them. My favourite mint candy if you ever come across them are called Bendicks Bittermints, they're like a thick round and very strong soft mint patty coated in a thin layer of very bitter dark chocolate, also there is another mint confectionary called Kendal Mint Cake which I'd love to see you try, it's eaten a lot by mountaineers as an old skool energy bar, as it's basically just a block of peppermint flavoured sugar, all hiking shops sell it in the UK, the first expedition to summit Everest famously took some with them.

    I dunno if you guys are looking for reccomendations but I see you don't do a huge amount of savoury/salty snacks and I love Savoury snacks so thought I would drop a list of my favourites for inspiration.
    Niknaks - Cheeto like chips (Crisps) that come in 3 flavours, Nice n Spicy (Most popular), Rib n Saucy, Scampi n Lemon (My favourite)
    Mini cheddars - Little cheesy crackers, kinda like goldfish but IMO far superior, Also comes in a bunch of flavours.
    Bombay mix - Mixture of peanuts, pulses and dried noodles coated in a mildly spicy curry spice mix.
    Smiths fries - Hard deep fried chips (Crisps) popular in pubs, comes in two flavours, Bacon and Scampi.
    Hula hoops - Crunchy Potato snacks, come a variety of flavours but honestly the best part about them is their texture.
    Kettle Crisps - Hand cooked Crisps, crunchier and more "Home style" than walkers (Lays), comes in a Variety of flavours but my favourite is Sea Salt and Balsamic Vinegar.
    Lancashire Crisps - A brand that I doubt you'll be able to get hold of but I had to add them coz they are amazing. From my home county, like Kettle Crisps but a little lighter, not as hard. Comes in a variety of flavours, Salt, Salt n vinegar, cheese and onion, the Usual but also have some wierder flavours, my favourite of which is Black Pudding flavour.
    Pickled Onion Monster munch - I know you have tried them before but I love them so had to add them here.
    Basically all British cheese is delicious and, no offence, 1000x better than their American counterparts.
    Scotch eggs - Hard boiled egg (But runny yolk for best results) wrapped in sausage meat, breaded and deep fried, best eaten with HP Sauce.
    Sausage rolls - Sausage meat wrapped in puffed pastery and baked until golden brown, Perfect midday lunch.
    Added some non-shippable snack type things at the end, not sure you will be able to get them near you but worth a try if you can.

Also, I've noticed a lot of people commenting on how you haven't review any of the big four tubs of chocolates, i.e. Celebrations, Heroes, Roses and Quality Street but it's kind of too late now because most people only buy them at Christmas to share with the family and guests and to review them now would make most people sick of seeing them! They are usually sold towards the build up to Christmas so you only have to wait till September to do a review of them!

Could be that there arn't as much Liqourice products in the US as there are in the UK or the stuff you have is flavoured or made differently so it's not a flavour Americans are as used to.
