Packaged in two 500 g tins, these traditional candies offer a nostalgic taste experience rooted in over half a century of family confectionery craftsmanship. ## Description Product Description The Jesmona brand is reputed to be named after the Jesmond area of Newcastle, the part of the world where their sweets were originally manufactured. The Jesmona name was bought by Maxons Ltd in 1960 and production moved to their Sheffield factory. With over half a centuries experience in confectionary making, we have come to produce a selected range of traditional sweets to high quality standards. Originally fronted by the enterprising Philip Pitchfork, Maxons are still run today by two of his grandsons making it a truly family run business. Take yourself back to your childhood, Jesmona specialise in classic confectionary that tastes as good now as it did back then. Our Black Bullets are a very traditional mint flavoured sweet, whose origins are lost in the mists of time. Black Bullets themselves are a fairly typical sweet from the North East of England where the word "Bullet" is a dialectic term for any boiled sweet. One myth surrounding Black Bullets is that they derive their distinctive shape and size from having been made in the moulds for musket balls. In many respects, Jesmona Black Bullets is a product before its time. Long before the current craze for natural products, Jesmona Black Bullets were made purely from sugar, glucose and peppermint oil with no artificial colourings or flavourings at all. Made in the United Kingdom all of our confectionary is of the highest quality.

What it says on the tin! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic *by R***S on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 August 2021* Been buying these sweets for years and have never been disappointed. They taste scrumptious and I just love the tin Would definitely recommend. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Smashed lids and dented tins???? *by I***. on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 16 October 2019* Ordered these yesterday despite some iffy reviews, both tins arrived well packed in air padded packaging, both tins are dented all over and both plastic resealable lids are cracked so you cannot resealable the once open tins ( and no a pringles one does not fit) it would be my opinion that this was not done in transit due to the good packaging. It therefore follows that these were already damaged and still sent out AVOID there are too many β€œdented” reviews on here to be a coincidence!!! Had my wife not pulled the tin sealed lid off the sealed tin, they would have been back faster than a ferret up a drain pipe! The sweets are great although they are not individually wrap which would have helped.... --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/52596485-jesmona-old-fashioned-black-bullets-500-g-pack-of-2](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/52596485-jesmona-old-fashioned-black-bullets-500-g-pack-of-2) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-06-01*
