Sweet History
A brief Sweet History
Eating sweets or sweet food has been with us for a long long time. Honey was a popular, and likely one of the first sweet things to be enjoyed by people in Prehistoric days. In those times we ate sweets and Dinosaurs tried to eat us ! Sweet things made with honey and nuts were recorded found in Egyptian pyramids, so Pick-n-Mix was enjoyed thousands of years ago. So we haven't really changed our taste that much since those days.
Middle Ages and through time saw desserts like preserved fruits, jelly and dried fruit start to appear for the well off set. Sugar became a favourite with rich folk.
Chocolate from the Americas came to Britain in the 17th century.
Getting Tasty
A lot of modern sweets have links to the old Apothecary days, making the medicine go down better you might say
For centuries, people used liquorice as a medicine and so in 1760 an Englishman and would be Chemist named George Dunhill added sugar and turned it into a form of chewy sweet. So the process of sweet making took a turn for the good.
Notable dates
In 1847, a British company called Fry's produced the first chocolate bar.
In 1864, an Austrian confectioner working for Fryers of Lancashire produced a jelly based sweets named Jelly Babies.
In 1869 Kendal mint cake was invented.
