Buy half a box of fudge !

At least on a half full packet of breakfast cereal they say:- "contents may settle in transit" !!


Candybox Confectionery of Bridlington - this IS a rip off !

AVOID !

    Because if the weight is right, you haven't bought half a box of fudge...you have bought the right amount of fudge in a box thats twice the size it should be!

    Afraid I don't carry any scales with me :D But if the weight hadn't been right I would have sent my complaint to Trading Standards as this would be a criminal offence not a shoddy misrepresentation by the maker.
    I didn't buy it, it was bought for me - and it's still lousy fudge !

    I do like the composition of the photograph though. If you turn the packet of "fudge" around, does it fit the box? I feel the artist has mislead the observer. ;)
