Do you prefer hard sweets/candies/lollies like lifesavers/boiled sweets/lollypops or soft, chewy ones like gummy bears, starburst, mixed lollies?

Both are good but I prefer chewy gummies. For a long time I thought I'd kicked my addiction (well not addiction but fairly regular cravings) but atm getting back into it.

I only eat hard candy when I have a sore throat...CHOCOLATE, GIVE ME CHOCOLATE like in the Whitman's box and I can X them out as I eat them.

I'm not much of a candy eater anymore but my favorites would be peanut m&ms, starburst and I LOVE See's candies in nuts & chews. I've always hated hard candy like jawbreakers (yuck) and also sour items (like sweet tarts).

soft licorice, preferably black.
gummy bears
Black Crows and JuicyFruits (remember those?)
REAL English Butter Toffee (and I grieve the loss of Callard & Bowser's licorice toffee)
Red Twizler's in a pinch

chocolate is in an entirely other category of bliss.

Have you tried Oatfield Liquorice Toffee?
And, when it comes to chocolate, I do love Cadbury's Flake, Cadbury's Dairy Milk, and Maltesers.

I prefer Starburst chews, Airheads, Sour Punches, Now and Laters, and Mambas to hard lollipops and even semi-hard candies such as jelly beans.

Okay, here's a great soft candy some of you might know about (especially Aussies and UKers) - Jelly Babies!!! They're really good - especially the blackcurrant ones.

I prefer softer candies. I like red licorice, sweet and sour gummy worms, cinnamon bears, jelly beans, and most anything chocolate.
