New traditional sweet shop

[Annien]

There's a new sweetshop opening up at 57 Dartmouth road, SE23...hurrah! I love Hope and Greenwood so am pleased something is opening up a little bit closer to where I live. Roll on Easter!

Apparently they'll be stocking speciality breads, chutneys, mustards etc as well. Opening on Good Friday.

Name is Sugar Mountain (and no, I will not be working there and I don't know the owner...I just like sweets so am spreading the word to other sweet lovers :-))

Do they sell Blackjacks & Fruit Salad? I haven't seen them in ages!

[Otta]

Lemon sherberts!

I'm round the corner from Dartmouth Road, so very pleased to hear this!

[Huguenot]

Oh God, Fruit Salad - but have you tried them after you've undergone your first filling - it's a nightmare.

Hi All

Thank You for your comments I will be stocking all of the sweets mentioned above

[LoopyMum]

Don't usually do recommendations but Sugar Mountain is a FANTASTIC addition to the area.

If you have not visited already think Hope & Greenwood but much larger with fabulous breads (at the weekends )

homemade vinegars and chutneys, American cereal, cake pops and many other unusual treats.

Didn't think I would visit much when it first opened but with such a large variety of savoury and sweet treats

it has become one of our regular haunts.

Take a peek one day - you will not be disappointed !

Love cola bottles:)

American cereal? What American cereal is so good that it is sold in a sweet shop?

[Gingerbeer]

Life. Life Cereal. Preferably Cinnamon Life Cereal. Its the reason Ive never married... It owns my heart.

I have a horrible feeling it is probably Lucky Charms.

Quite like Kashi and the Trail Mix Grape Nuts.

Used to suck those until I could feel bits of my palate hanging off and I could taste blood...

Wouldn't be surprised if they were now banned on health and safety grounds.

But I loved how my tongue managed to seek out lodged bits of Fruit Salad (and Black Jacks, for that matter) from in between teeth HOURS after I had consumed them...mmmmm...
