Foxs Party Rings Review |
How would my son's 5th birthday party have gone without Party Rings!!! He was begging for them to be included on the party menu for weeks.
We played the following party game with them: evenly tie (gotta tie or they'll all slide into the middle) 4 Party Rings onto a long piece of string. Get a person/parent/friend to hold each end, and ask 4 contestants to try to eat a biscuit without using their hands! Whoever eats a whole biscuit first is the winner (but the others are too, as everyone gets to finish their Party Ring).

The technical name for the pattern on the party rings is called feathering. You will also find this on the top of some of the better quality family sized iced bakewells. |
Nicey replies: Yes and on top Jacobs White Chocolate and Cherry Pim's ( a hybrid Jaffa cake ) circa 1989.

Foxs Party Rings Review |
Hoorah! for party rings. Much like the (entirely savoury and now mucked-about-with) hula hoop, party rings can be eaten off the finger. Unlike hula hoops, however, I can't get a whole party ring in my mouth at once, but if the first bite is taken with care, enough of the hole can be left so that the biscuit stays on the finger.
Re Crispin's Iced Bears, I do remember half-chocolate covered zoo animals, Cadbury's I think - but they're still going, aren't they?

Nicey replies: Yes Cadbury's Animals are still around although they seem to only be available bagged in mini sized versions. The full sized ones used to inhabit a box, and were a delicacy. I would like to get my hands on the full sized ones again as I have some Zoo Leibniz biscuits from Bahslen which I would like to put head to head with them, in a 1966 sort of way. |

Nicey
I was delighted to see your review of Fox's Party Rings, a staple of birthday parties in my youth. My brother and I are sure we remember consuming 'Iced Bears' on several occasions in the late 1980s. These were very similar to party rings, differing only in that they were manufactured in the shape of bears. Does anyone else remember these?
