Stockley's sweets is debuting a series of new confectionery products in the UK arriving with newstalgia in mind to satisfy demand for familiar treats with a decidedly modernized spin. The products come in the new Jam Roly Poly & Custard and Choc-Scotch flavors, which both build on the popularity of the brand's signature candy format. The Jam Roly Poly Custard boasts the flavors of rhubarb and custard with a raspberry center, while the Choc-Scotch has a crisp butterscotch flavor with a milk chocolate core.
Head of Marketing Andy Valentine spoke on the new offerings from Stockley's sweets saying, "Having enjoyed enviable growth over the last 12 months, with the arrival of new prestige distributors like Cotswold Fayre and Cress, Stockley’s is in no mood to take its foot off the throttle. Jam Roly Poly & Custard is a stunning twist on this tart yet sweet classic whilst Choc-Scotch provides our unique take on a crisp butterscotch shell made with real butter that contrasts intriguingly with its smooth yet indulgent, milk chocolate core."
