Fizz Wizz is one of those names that sounds like it should be a household brand, but tracking down exactly where it comes from takes a bit more digging than most retro sweets.
What it actually is
Fizz Wizz is a retro sherbet confection sold through UK sweet suppliers such as World of Sweets, made by Spicers of Hythe, a UK confectionery manufacturer. It's the kind of fizzy, sherbet-based pocket-money sweet that's turned up on pick 'n' mix counters for decades, in flavours including strawberry.
Not the same as Wizz Fizz
It's easy to confuse with Wizz Fizz, a separate and better-documented sherbet brand - but Wizz Fizz is Australian, made by Fyna Foods, and has been sold since 1947. The two names are similar enough to cause genuine confusion in searches, but they're different products from different companies in different countries.
What we stock instead
We don't currently stock Fizz Wizz. If it's a classic sherbet fix you're after, our range includes Swizzels Refreshers 3kg, Swizzels Double Dip, and Frisia Sour Mix Flying Saucers - all genuine retro sherbet-and-fizz sweets in the same spirit, just under different names.
