Remember when 10p bought a whole paper bag of sweets? The Time Capsule is that bag, all grown up: twenty five corner shop classics packed into one big glass jar. Open it up and you are straight back at the counter, pointing at the ones you want.

What's in the jar: American Hard Gums, Anglo Bubbly, Aniseed Twists, Army and Navy, Black Jacks, Blackcurrant Liquorice, Candy Necklaces, Candy Watches, Chocolate Limes, Dolly Mixtures, Everton Mints, Foam Banana, Flying Saucers, Fried Eggs, Fruit Salads, Wine Gums, Gold Bears, Jelly Babies, Midget Gems, Milk Bottles, Pear Drops, Pink & White Mice, Giant Shrimps, Sherbet Lemons and Strawberry Wheels.

The jar holds 2.5 litres and we fill it to the top, which comes to around 2.3kg of sweets. Enough to keep a household, an office or one very determined grown up going for a good while.

Please note: The Time Capsule is filled by volume, not by weight. Each jar holds around 2.3kg, and the exact weight will vary from jar to jar.

Made for anyone who wants the nostalgia hit, and a gift that needs no wrapping. When the sweets are gone you are left with a proper sweet shop jar to fill again. Vintage Vault is our other retro mix, and The Hall of Fame is the modern one.

Contains the colours E102, E110, E122 and E129, which may have an adverse effect on activity and attention in children. Contains sorbitol, so excessive consumption may have a laxative effect. Not suitable for children under 36 months due to the choking risk. Sold as one 2.5 litre glass jar.
