I've been into this adorable little shop quite a few times now. I have a British candy addiction. I've been known to eat heap and heaps of Fruit Gums. Ok, it's a Fruit Gums specific addiction. I'll eat a whole package before I even get home from the shop. Don't you dare confuse them with Wine Gums. No comparison.
But I've also been into Empire to pick up some little grocery type things for my Nana and other British relatives. They love it. Christmas Pudding from Marks and Sparks? They had it. Ginger biscuits? The best. Golden Syrup? I couldn't say no.
I love all the cute little touristy paraphernalia as well. Quirky tea towels and tea cups, or magnets with your fave Coronation street character on them.
Everything is displayed so nicely and the staff here is just the best. Every time I've been the staff have been so helpful and chatty and friendly.
