Did they also come with a 'transfer' - you know, like a pretend tattoo on a bit of paper that you'd lick, then slap it onto your skin!!!

Never heard of toffee crumble, or seen it. Looks like Chinchilla droppings (well it doesn't really, seeing as they are round, but you get the idea)

These rang a wee bell but I don't think they came with transfers.

Just googled and these were the ones that were black and tasted of licorice.

No, but I know what you mean. These were like pink chewy sticks. I've just been Googling like mad but can only find Dentine (which are similar but too small)
