A Quarter of...

A Quarter Of is a nostalgic online sweet shop which replaces the corner sweet shop that everyone remembers growing up with, which is sadly disappearing. Their sweets bring back fond memories of childhood days when the sun shone for longer, when you went everywhere with a whoopee cushion in your back pocket, and when your 6p change from your weekly dose of penny chews went on a copy of Whizzer and Chips.

Fabulous Gifts!
As well as offering a huge range of sweets, you will also find some fantastically original gifts - from the best-selling Wooden Boxes of Nostalgia to the beautiful printed gift boxes (always sent out with a fabulous fuschia ribbon wrapped around it), to jars in all shapes and sizes.

Cadbury Gifts Direct

Choose from a wide range of delicious Cadbury products including many exclusives. Cadbury Gifts Direct also features a 'pick and mix' section enable you to create your own unique Cadbury hamper filled with all your favorites.
