Tattercock's Canonballs

These Fizzy Cola Balls are made by Butterscotch & Beesting. Betty made these sweets in honour of the Flying Tattercock, who is a muddled-up creature created by the circus' resident mischief-maker, Solomon the Simian. (Solomon is a badly behaved monkey, who belongs to circus conjurer Bumblewick Beesting. He has a terrible habit of stealing his master's wand & running around the circus muddling up the animals.) The Tattercock was created when a Tiger, a Caterpillar and a Peacock were caught in the same spell. Most creatures prefer not to be muddled, however, for the Tattercock the situation was most fortuitous, as his ‘tiger-ness’ gave him a head for bravery, his Caterpillar middle was just the ticket for crawling down a cannon & uncurling upon exit, while his Peacock tail was nothing short of captivating when opened in flight over enraptured audiences. In short, he is the perfect Creature Cannonball! They are handmade in the UK. They are also suitable for Vegetarians. Each packet contains 100grams of sweets.

Butterscotch & Beesting

Sheffield’s very own answer to Willy Wonka joined us on a bitterly cold leap year in 1819. Aided by her bumbling assistants Butterscotch & Beesting (whom she describes as her “delicious children”) she makes mouth-watering confections & other worldly delights fit for a King. Working from her Gingerbread House & surrounded by sugar mice you might assume that Camilla is a very sweet natured girl, but sadly Hansel & Gretel made the same mistake once. All Butterscotch & Beesting products have a story behind them, and these candy bags give you a peek into the quite special world of the Butterscotch & Beesting Circus – an imaginary place populated by strange muddled-up creatures, talented troupes of performing animals & magical goings-on.
