It's lovely to see classic UK confectionery on sale in the USA . Perhaps for Irish visitors "Tayto" potato crisps should be offered. It's hard to believe so many of my school day UK sweats have gone global. KitKat's, chocolate covered wafer biscuits for example are now big in Japan, coming in a bewildering range of flavours! An idea for your wonderful shop would be to have screen captures of classic 1970s TV adverts, turned into posters. Or just played on a video screen.
One must Google these vintage UK TV adverts to get a flavor of the time:
The Milky Bar kid Jacob's Club Biscuits Cadbury's Flake Bounty Bar Marathon Bars (Now Snickers) Cadbury's Fruit and Nut bars etc etc....
To really appreciate classic British confectionery from the 1970s, one must understand for some they were the only treat of the week, and most kids the only treat of the day. Hence you ate them...
