    i havnt been able to find them in any of the shops so far, when i was in scotland i couldnt find them either... but i did manage to find jelly monsters sold individually!! YUM!!

    on another note- does anyone remember amazing ice cream lollies that were based on marios' (supermario) face...
    the hat was brown-chocolate flavour
    the face was white-vanilla flavour
    and there were pink parts-strawberry flavour

    they were the best ice creams EVER!

    I remember them bikkies, was it Rover had them in the tins at xmas years ago??

    Anyway I know I saw them a couple of years ago, best bet is if you have a local shop that orders from the cash and carry, get them to see has the cash and carry got em. You'll get them that way.

    Hi,

    Yeh, you could get them in the Rover tin of biscuits too, and the icing was really thick and tough. I think that you can buy the modern day equivalent of these biscuits in Tesco (and I don't mean party rings), but you're better off trying those discount stores (the one Euro shops).

    Yeah, I remember those now that you say it, though I could only find this: http://www.mariowiki.com/Super_Mario_Bros._Ice_Cream_Bar on it, but that's not the one I remember.
