Almost forgot to check the site. The frequency for cryptics seems to be 4 weeks.
Looks interesting.

Nice puzzle syzygy, thanks again. Perhaps if the "holder" clues had also been out of order it would have been quite a bit tougher ?

Per-lease ginge. I haven't done one yet!

i kind of agree with Ginge, or maybe if they were all cryptic. still a nice change, so thanks again Syzy.

Thanks for posting, Syzygy, enjoyed.
All finished except for the Hershey candy. I actually found some of the non-cryptic clues more difficult as there are so many options - until I got some crossers.

Hershey seem to make Drops and Nuggets, mattrom! Don't know if that helps because I have only done about half.

Hi ros and mattrom (this may be of only limited info to you in Oz) Hershey have the licence to produce Cadbury products in the US so you should recognise the product name as iit's the same as the confection here.

Thanks, syzzie. Easy but very nicely crafted.

The penny finally dropped about the candy, it used to be one of my favourites. Now distributed by Nestles here apparently. I wasn't expecting to recognise the name. Thanks rosalind and ginge.

My mistake mattrom and ros, I don't have a sweet tooth, but it is nestlé (other than the US) rather than Cadbury but originally Mackintosh which became Rowntree Mackintosh (in case I've steered you in the wrong direction ros).
