  Classic sweets which were only 1p each. There was a larger version called Fizz Gongs which were 3p each and were a bit too big. I could hardly get them in my mouth!

  The original Fizz Bombs that you are describing are still sold in South Africa and are manufactured by a company called Cartoon Candy

    Dobson's also had a small factory in Winlaton (Gateshead) that went up in flames in the late 1970s. They also made a black fizz bomb called 'Coals from Newcastle'

  I loved these as a child - the *new* fizz bombs aren't a patch on the originals. That lovely, crunchy, enamal stripping fizz followed by the honeycomb texture(ish) inside with it's slight fizz... Loved the orange and purpley ones.

  Thanks Chopper for mentioning that.I have bought some Fizzy Wizzy sweets and they are very very similar.I would say the green ones taste similar to Fizz Bombs aswell.I am very happy now :-)

  Actually there's a is a brand out there called Fizzy Wizzy and they're almost identical to the old Fizz Bombs.. The purple ones are the most similar flavour-wise (and were my favourite Fizz bombs too)!

  I sometimes have these when I go to the movies. They're just your generic supermarket scoop them into a cup version though. Not as good as the old ones.

  You can still get these but they do not taste like the originals.I bought some. If you get fizzy fish they taste exactly the same as the old fizz bombs.I so much miss my fizz bombs.
