The practice of choosing your sweets is nothing new but made its way around households since the 19th century. However, the term ‘pick & mix’ was not coined until the 1950s in America, when candy stores and brands adopted the phrase that their consumers were already using. A sweets collection, which includes a variety or a collection of sweets, is the term most commonly used nowadays when people buy a selection of sweets in a single package or container.

Although modern sweets are flavored with a delicious blend of plant juices, oils, acids, and fruit flavors (such as citric acid from citrus fruit and licorice plant roots), you can still find those traditional or old-fashioned, playground favorites from reputable retailers like Sugar Rush Sweeties.

Sugar Rush Sweeties, based in Garforth, Leeds, is one of the UK’s largest online sweets providers. The shop is owned by two young entrepreneurs, Harry Lynch and Tayla Harris, who started the business in 2019 on a small scale to supplement their income and make provisions for their future travel plans. Today, after having achieved great success in a short time, they cater to every demographic age group and offer over 100 different sweets to choose from, and, walk-in customers can choose from a variety of milkshakes, brownies, cookies dough, and other delights.

“We started our sweets collection in 2019 mainly to supplement our income so that we could travel abroad later. At first, we sold sweets mostly to people within our local community, but the Covid-19 pandemic the following year altered our travel plans and our professional careers, so we decided to enter the online market with our business.

We had no idea how popular our sweets would become at the time, and today, instead of looking back, we are looking ahead, and we are planning on further expansion of our business. We already have a phenomenal online presence, and since our humble beginnings, we have also grown to such an extent, that we now employ several staff members,” Harry said.

It has never been easier or more convenient to buy your favorite sweets collection, and Sugar Rush Sweeties goes above and beyond to make sure the sweets you receive are fresh and handled hygienically before packaging and delivery.

With Sugar Rush Sweeties, there is something for everyone, even if you are a vegan or vegetarian who likes a sweet treat from time to time. All you have to do is visit their website, choose your favorite sweets collection online, add it to your cart, proceed to checkout, and complete the payment process. Your order will then be delivered to your doorstep in a few days.

About Us

Sugar Rush Sweeties, owned and operated by Harry Lynch and Tayla Harris, is the UK's leading pick & mix sweets shop, and now also offers the widest assortment of sweets to online clients. During the Covid-19 pandemic and ensuing lockdown, our company grew to become one of the largest counter and internet sweet dealers in Yorkshire. It all started as an idea in October 2019, while we were both working full-time in teaching and banking but decided we were going to travel. We decided that we should raise some additional money to supplement our travel money by selling sweets to residents, however, the pandemic canceled our vacation plans, and as a result, we were also no longer employed full-time. So, we devoted all of our time and effort to Sugar Rush Sweeties. With our tasty selection of sweets and affordable plans, you will be able to fill your ‘sugar rush prescription' in no time. Sugar Rush is constantly expanding and owes its sweet success to online support. We invite you to visit our website at https://www.sugarrushsweeties.co.uk to discover what all the fuss is about.
