This article needs more citations. (February 2024) |
Dolly mixture is a British confection, consisting of a variety of multi-coloured fondant shapes, such as cubes and cylinders with subtle flavourings, and sugar-coated jellies. They are considered a sweeter alternative to the more bitter liquorice allsorts and are primarily aimed at young children.
In the UK, a variety of dolly mixture sold as Dolly Mix is produced under the Barratt brand, owned by Valeo Confectionery.
In 2022, UK supermarket chain Iceland introduced a Dolly Mix flavour ice cream to its range of Barratt-themed products.[1]
The Goon Show character Bluebottle was frequently rewarded or bribed with a quantity of dolly mixture, jelly babies, or similar sweets.[2]
