Karen's taste of sweet success

Saturday, August 7, 2010

We launched a survey in March 2010 to find out if everyone in the country – whether, they live in England, Northern Ireland, Scotland or Wales – had the same taste in sweets.

 

People who voted were also entered into a free prize draw to win a year’s supply of their preferred confectionery.

 

The winner of the free prize draw picked at random was Karen Henderson (57) who lives in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire.

 

“It was a fantastic surprise when I found out I’d won,” said Karen. “When I came across the competition it immediately took me back to my childhood when I was allowed to spend some of my pocket money on sweeties. 

 

“Each week I took some of my pennies to the local sweet shop and I always hoped they had Pear Drops.  I used to get a quarter and suck them till the roof of my mouth was sore and I had ulcers!  Those were the days!
