    3 Stars Sugar, I need sugar. Give it to me now. 01/10/2001
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages You can get candy from America without having to travel thousands of miles.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Customer service could be better, and it ain't cheap!

    Set aside your wine gums and liquorice allsorts for a while, and let yourself drift into a world where Airheads are more than just people that work in KFC, Tootsie Pops aren’t just something you get when you’ve had too many sprouts for dinner and M&M’s come in 6 (yes, that’s right kid’s, SIX) different flavours. Welcome to the world of Cybercandy. If any of you have ever been to the US, you will have realised that, although we the official home of chocolate, the rest of the UK sweetie scene is severely lacking compared to our transatlantic allies. All this has ... more

    5 Stars CHOCOLATE WITH A STING IN THE TAIL 25/04/2003
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Errr, chocolate?

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Prices

    Hands up. Who doesn't like chocolate?, OK, hands up who doesn't like sweets?. And finally hands up those who doesn't like beef jerky? Right go away abnormal people this op is definitely not for you!! Well, I'm a bit of a sweetie monster, gone off chocolate bars a bit, but do like small sweets covered in chocolate. Anyway I was getting rather bored with the selection in the UK, having tried practically everything on the market I was disillusioned and bored. The most exciting thing lately has been the white chocolate bar with Smarts in it. Obviously my life is way too boring and I need to get ... more

    4 Stars Sweets from Foreign lands 03/11/2001
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages You can't get the sweets anywhere else (exept abroad)

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Is a bit expensive

    I love sweets. HOwever, I am always on the lookout for something new - CyberCandy (or CC) provides this. CC sells confectionary from nations such as Japan, china, USA, and Australia. There are wonderfully ornate/retro Japanese candys, and sweets that we are more used to - like the US version of SKittles and M&Ms (they are slightly diferent in both texture and taste). The Japanese candy in particular is wonderful. The packaging on some items is really amazing (considering the contents). Anyone looking for unique/innovative presents for kids or sweet-toothed family members, need look no farther ... more

    4 Stars BUY FOREIGN SWEETS ONLINE 21/10/2001
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Try sweets from different countries

    Disadvantages Disadvantages A bit expensive!

    Have you ever wanted to try Japanese sweets? Or maybe Chinese sweets? Or maybe even a chocolate bar with a real, edible scorpion inside? And if that's not your sort of thing I'm sure edible crickets coated in fine milk chocolate would be appealing. Nope I'm not taking the piss here you really can buy all of this - all kinds of sweets from all over the world! Cybercandy is divided into seven departments where you can view the types of sweets for sale or you can view the sweets on sale through the different nations that they come from. Cybercandy sell sweets from Britain (although many of the ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages unique

    Disadvantages Disadvantages little pricy but worth it

    If you love sweets and are not afraid to try something different then this is the site for you. Cybercandy is an e-tailer of confectionary from around the world, USA, Australia, South Africa, Japan, China and New Zealand (although other countries do pop up from time to time). Like many retail sites you can search for products in various ways - according to their country of origin, main ingredient or type or just browse through the many products (either with or without pictures and/or descriptions). The site is very easy to navigate and pleasing to look at. On sale are sweets from around the ... more

    4 Stars A whole new world of chocolate choice 21/01/2003
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Good range, seem reliable

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Often out of stock

    I don't know why foregin chocolate should be so interesting - but it is! I used to quite like buying the odd Hershey bar from Rackhams in Birmingham for novelty value. Now, Cybercandy offers me dozens of exotic treats to choose from. The site itself attempts to offer major confectionery lines from Japan, the US, Canada, China, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. In other words, the foreign equivalents of Mars and Dairy Milk, or what I imagine ex-pats of these countries will have cravings for! If you're an exile of one of these countries, or if you just want to try something different ... more

    Advantages Advantages .

    Disadvantages Disadvantages .

    I came across this website a good few years ago in a website directory and have ordered from it quite a few times. I would probably order from it more, but it is the price that puts me off. The website www.cybercandy.co.uk is a site that sells chocolate from certain countries around the world. Their main country is America, but they also sell from mexico, Sweden, Australia, retro british stuff, New Zealand, Japan, Finland, South Africa and Canada, You can buy chocolate, sweets, juice and sometimes other things such as pop tarts, jams, pancake mix, juice and so on. The home page to this site is ... more

    5 Stars Try Chocolate with a twist 09/08/2000
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages A really good selection of candy on offer

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Prices seem a little high

    If you ever fancied trying American candy bars like, Hersheys, Reeses's or even some of your favourite Cadburys chocolate bars with a twist then look no further, Cyber Candy is the site for you. They offer a great selection of American, Australian, and even Japanesse candy. The site is really easy to navigate and the selection on offer is great, some of the stuff is abit wacky though, ever fancied cinammon flavour Tic-tac's??, that's just one of the many lines on offer. Some of the prices seem a little expensive at first but it's alot cheaper then a flight to the US. The postage is quite ... more

    4 Stars Chocs away 18/11/2000
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages A chance to try some chocolate and sweets from abroad

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Doesn't have a huge range of product

    This site sells chocolate and candy that is normally unavailable in Britain. Currently they offer a range of 120 products from various countries from around the globe, like USA, Japan,Australia, New Zealand, Taiwan and China. The website is really easy to navigate and it makes shopping a pretty pleasant experience. You can browse the goods by country, or by the type of product. ie - Chocolate, Peanut, Marshmallow etc. As you'd expect, the chocolate on offer is a little more expensive than what you'd expect to pay in your local shop for a bar of "Dairy Milk" for instance, but you are getting ... more

    4 Stars Definitely Worth A Visit! 13/09/2000
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Lots of sweeties!!!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not suitable if you don't have sweet tooth

    I have never come accross a site like this before. A UK site which imports sweets (candy) from all over the world for you to order easily via this site. Choose from Australian Candy, Chinese Candy, Japanese Candy, New Zealand Candy. It's all here ... and not usually available in the UK! This is an excellent site therefore if you are looking for a unique gift, or something a little bit different than the usual Fry's Chocolate Cream or Wispa! European orders are delivered by either first or second class post and your order is usually dispatched in less than 2 working days. However, I think UK ... more
