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.

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.

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.
