When we moved back to NZ, we were missing all our favourites and wanted nothing more than to tuck into a proper packet of crisps.
Fourteen years after starting UK Goodies, we have managed to tuck into a number of packets of crisps and still believe you can’t beat a packet of Walkers. Of course you can’t just stop at the crisps, as there is so much else that is too good to leave behind.
The next for us on the list of misses and must haves and were the good old-fashioned sweets – sherbet lemons, mint humbugs, rhubarb & custard, pear drops to name but a few. The list didn’t stop there and now we stock over 70 varieties of loose sweets in our jars, and they keep growing. One of the best parts of the job is ordering the sweets and seeing what is new out there. The kids these days (big and little) seem to love the sour sweets, the sourer the better as far as they are concerned, so we have plenty to keep them happy.
At UK Goodies you'll will also find breakfast cereals, biscuits, cooking ingredients, chocolate bars, jams and spreads and confectionery. We are based in Petone only a quick 10-minute drive from Wellington or Upper Hutt. We love hearing how people are taking a trip down memory lane and get very nostalgic when they visit. So come and see us and have your trip down memory lane.
