Abstract

A composite confectionary item comprises a strong alcoholic liquid centre encased in a chewable sweet-like shell. The sweet-like shell is composed of two layers, a hard, brittle outer layer and a soft chewable inner layer and the liquid centre may be any alcoholic drink but preferably 40-55 % alcohol by volume. The inner layer of the shell may be flavoured or may comprise one or more stimulants, such as caffeine, and the outer layer of the shell may have a design printed on it. Preferred flavours for the inner shell are cola, orange, lemon, blackberry, strawberry, banana, raspberry, mint, chocolate, caramel or candy. Preferably, the outer and inner layers are 0.5 and 2.5 mm thick respectively and the liquid centre has a diameter of 26 mm.
