Retro Game Sweets
Much as we love today’s graphically gobsmacking video games, they lack the old-school charm of classics such as Pac Man and Super Mario Bros. All those garish graphics and blippity bloppity sounds were really rather sweet.

So much so, some bright spark has created Retro Game Sweets, a range of highly suckable sour candies that pay tribute to some of gaming’s greatest icons.

Retro Game Sweets
Inspired by the world’s most famous pill-chomping disc and everyone’s favourite Italian tap twiddler, these deliciously zingy sweets come in highly collectable tins shaped like characters from the world of Pac Man and Super Mario Bros. Mmm…red mushrooms!

Retro Game Sweets
Pac Man:
This set consists of deliciously munchable Pac Man Pellets in a matching tin that spins to dispense its orange flavoured treats. You’ll also get a Blinky tin containing sour cherry candies OR a ‘Turned Blue’ ghost tin filled with blue raspberry candies. Wakawakawaka…munch!
Retro Game Sweets
Super Mario Bros:
Order this set and you’ll receive a Super Star tin with matching candies and a Mushroom tin containing either cherry, blue raspberry or apple flavoured sours. Mamma Mia!

Sour Cherry Blinky

We’ve no doubt you’ll scoff your sweeties faster than a rampaging Pac Man on steroids, but at least this is one gaming tie-in that won’t leave your eyes square and your thumbs blistered. (The dentist will see you now).

Just as addictive as the games upon which they are based, Retro Game Sweets make great pressies for nostalgic gamers and anyone who appreciates the cultural impact of Pac Man and Mario. Indeed, we doubt they’ll be selling Gears of War sweeties anytime soon. And even if they do, there’s no way they’ll be as cute as these wincingly moreish delights. Pass a Blinky.

visitor avatar I was surprised at the size of them (Smaller then I had hoped), but this just makes them that much cuter ;) The sweets inside them are something else! sooooooo very tasty :P The best part is that they can be re-used as ornaments and secret containers :D.

visitor avatar What do the Super Star tin sweets taste like?
Random, London - Jan '10
Firebox says: Fruity and zingy! They come in a few different flavours such as blue raspberry! Mmmm

visitor avatar Adorable!. . And geeky but in an attractive fashion. Wanted the Mario star and mushroom ones for myself BUT I own too much clutter already, so I bought the Pacman ones for someone else cuz PAcMan always makes me think of them :) My only "meh" point is that I ordered two sets and was kinda hoping that I'd get one Blinky and one ghost...ah well, tis just pot luck I guess.

visitor avatar Bought the Star and Mushroom ones for my boyfriend for Christmas, after he told me I wasn't allowed to buy him Super Mario Bros Wii as it was over my Christmas shopping budget :D They're very very cute and perfect for silly little stocking fillers for Mario fans :3.

Firebox says: We agree! 1up!

Luke, Lincolnshire - Dec '09
Firebox says: Should be in on the 7th so yes.

visitor avatar Pretty good. Taste nice and a good pocket size. Thought it would be a but bigger but it's great for putting in your pocket or leaving in the car. Great.
Jack Green, Glasgow - Dec '09
visitor avatar If I order 2 sets of the marios tins will I get 2 different coloured mushrooms? these are amazing.
