The sweet shop had not changed in tradition in 62 years still selling everything including pear drops, cinder toffee, rum and butter toffee and chocolate raisins from traditional toffee jars and in white bags. The family business was started by Irene's parents Rose and Bob in 1927. Photo: Frank Orrell
