What it is
A gummy set of false teeth in white and pink, fruit flavoured. A novelty shape that has been in British sweet shops for decades.
Taste
Where it comes from
Denture sweets belong to the same tradition as wax lips and vampire fangs, sweets designed to be worn and photographed before being eaten. They predate Halloween's rise in Britain and were sold as a general novelty rather than a seasonal one.
What it's made of
Glucose syrup, sugar and pork and beef gelatine deposited in two colours, set with pectin, with vegetable and fruit concentrates for colour, glazed with carnauba wax.
