Dolly mixture

Dolly mixture is a British confection, consisting of a variety of multi-coloured fondant shapes, such as cubes and cylinders, with subtle flavourings. The mixtures also include hard-coated fondants in "round edged cube" shapes and sugar coated jellies. They are sold together, in a mixture in a medium-sized packet. It is produced by various companies in different countries; the most popular brands are those produced by Trebor Bassett (now a part of the Cadbury's consortium) and HARIBO.

The name "Dolly" refers to the small size of the sweets.

The Goon Show character, Bluebottle, was frequently rewarded, or able to be bribed, with a quantity of Dolly mixture.
