Mr. Simms Olde Sweet Shoppe

My dad’s been looking for a sweet he swore he tried in his younger days for years now. So entranced by the mesmerising Toffee Crunch, he’s been looking for it in sweet shops ever since. Sadly, to no avail. Such is the difficulty of the Toffee Crunch quest that we’re beginning to question whether Toffee Crunch is no more than a minor confusion on my dad’s part. A funny one at that.
My dad’s toffee-​based search, among other things, brought us here. Entering Mr Simm’s magical sugar emporium, you’ll see an abundance of sweet treats. — Jars of them, packs of them. — Heck they’ve even got sculptures made of the stuff in the window. There’s plenty of Mr Simm’s own packaged concoctions and a seriously impressive American sweet corner. If you’re like me and love Reese’s peanut butter cups, you’ll be wowed by the selection. Peanut butter cup heaven! So, they’ve certainly got one heck of a collection; just looking at the vast amount of sweeties on offer is seriously cavity-​inducing!
It’s certainly got the hearty spirit of an authentic old sweet shop, sort of like that one with the swinging ladder in Willy Wonka. Meaning I always get ridiculously giddy with excitement coming here and I just know I’ll always find the perfect gift for a sweet-​toothed friend. They do have some amazing pre-​packed goodies. — I almost bought their Reese’s one before convincing myself that £17 worth of peanut butter cup assortments is not something you buy yourself. (But someone else can totally buy me it!)
As far as the Toffee Crunch search goes… Of course, there was none to be found and the hilarity continues. But they couldn’t be more helpful in searching high and low, and asking my dad what said sweet looks like so they could narrow down the search. Alas, the quest continues.
Sweet!

Mr. Simms had the most gigantic wall of candy I’ve ever seen!!! It was kind of an intimidating selection of stuff actually. We just kept things simple and snagged a small bag of toffee bonbons to stroll around with. They were super sweet, and I probably need another filling when I get home. They were also rather addicting. With each bite, my wife exclaimed «These have crack in them!»
