Step back in time with a flavor that defines the traditional British sweet shop! Dobson’s Dandelion & Burdock Lollies capture the unique, botanical soul of the classic hedgerow brew. It is a deep, complex, and utterly unmistakable taste that has been a favorite across the North of England for generations.

A Botanical Masterclass:

  • The Unique Flavor: Experience the sophisticated blend of anise-like sweetness and earthy root extracts. It delivers a refreshing "sarsparilla" zing followed by a mellow, herbal finish that is both cooling and comforting.

  • The Copper-Pan Depth: Hand-boiled in Yorkshire using heritage copper pans, these lollies achieve a rich, dark-syrup complexity. The traditional method ensures a crystal-clear, "hard-crack" finish that provides a superior, glass-like texture.

  • A Taste of the North: Dandelion & Burdock is more than just a flavor—it’s a piece of history. Dobsons has been perfecting this recipe since 1850, keeping the spirit of the Victorian apothecary alive in every treat.

Why the "D&B" is a Must-Try:

  • The Sophisticated Palate: Perfect for those who prefer their sweets with a bit of "spice" and herbal depth rather than simple fruit sugars.

  • Stunning Aesthetics: With its deep, opaque mahogany hue, this lolly looks regal and vintage—the perfect centerpiece for a traditional glass sweet jar.

  • Long-Lasting Character: Designed to be savored slowly, the botanical oils provide a sustained flavor release that evolves the longer you enjoy it.

The Verdict: It’s spicy, earthy, and brilliantly nostalgic. If you love the taste of old-fashioned pop and "medicinal" sweets that pack a punch, the Dandelion & Burdock is the undisputed king of the collection.
