In Canada, we've got toffee in bar form - a big, hard bar of toffee shaped like a chocolate bar. I've loved it since I was a kid, though I don't buy it too often these days. It was unavailable for a few years after the factory was damaged in a fire, but they ended up being able to bring it back.
Mackintosh's Toffee. I don't know if it's even available outside Canada these days: https://candyfunhouse.ca/products/mackintoshs-mack-toffee
I've spent enough time in Canadian candy shops that I'm surprised I don't recognize it
When I was a kid it was circus peanuts. Now I think I just like a good butterscotch or hard caramel.
Necco Wafers are fantastic, good choice. My top picks would probably be Ritter Sport, I think their marzipan bar is probably the greatest confection mankind has ever confected, and for an old school UK candy I would go for the Milky Lunch bar.
It's definitely these. I have no idea what they're called but if you've seen them you know exactly what's up.
I'm not sure how "Old School" it is, but my moms side of the family really liked tamarind hard candy and lychee jello cups. Do those count?
do smarties (US)/rockets (CA) count? i love those. also a fan of Werther's
I'm not sure if it's truly old-school but it feels old-school -- those chewy maple-dipped peanuts, usually they come in a clear plastic bag at Runnings or someplace similar. They were a favorite of mine since I was a kid, and sometimes my parents still get me a bag of them for Christmas if they manage to find them somewhere.
Also a big fan of the strawberry hard candies that come in the strawberry wrapper.
BIG fan of lemon drops. Can't go wrong with a classic butterscotch candy either~
It's gotta be werthers originals for me. Also like a good butter mint. Cow tales from time to time too
Cherry sourballs, no question.
I kinda like those weird orange peanut things made out of some kind of stale marshmallow, too.
Chick-O-Stick, one of the few great treasures to come from the culturally blighted land of east texas
Necco Wafers are really good. I'm not sure about "favorite" but I really like those barrel-shaped root beer hard candies.
I got into anise flavored hard candy when I worked at a summer camp and wanted a sugar boost that the kids wouldn't beg for.
