Personalised stick of rock

I want to buy a stick or a pack of sticks of rock (max10) with a name inside.
I remember when I was younger you could go to the seaside and they would have the sticks of rock with the name of the town but they would also have other ones, like football teams and common names.
Does anyone know if I can purchase this online? Its for a secret santa present with the name simon inside if that is any help! I have done a quick search and it all seems to be for wholesale sticks where you need to buy 100's.

"Have you ever wondered how the letters into lettered rock candy, how the BLACKPOOL gets into Blackpool Rock candy? Well here's how. Seaside rock candy is still made in the traditional way. The rock is hand made by a practiced craftsman called a Sugar Boiler. You will see with the amount of "toffee" needed to form the rock that we cannot make the rock in single bars we have to make a minimum of 100 sticks."

That said Simon should be a easy enough to find name in pre-made rock - if there are still vendors who do popular names, football teams etc.

Dunno if they sell to the public but I bet they'd put you on to a retailer if not.
