Canny Lass - adding your answers to my initial 5 'give-aways' gives you a score of 16 out of 40.

I had to change No 17 to 'Wispa' for the Microsoft Excel built in code to give you a TRUE (it's an old excel sheet with built in functions and protected cells that are password protected and I don't have the password.  

No 27 - wrong big cat

[Canny lass]

Well, if you're allowed to 'adjust' the answers, then 12 might be Dolly mixtures,

15 is definitely Chocolate Buttons, 19 could be Fruit gums 29 must be  Minstrels and 22 is probably a Yorkie. 

You will be forgiven for thinking that I have a sweet tooth.

I daren't answer Nr.8

Oops! Minstrels should have been 30 - not 29. Sorry!

27 should have been Lion bar.

40 could be Skittles

23 All Gold (Terry's)

4 Mars bar

9 or 35 could be Treats - probably 9 as it's in the plural form

This not getting my Christmas baking done!

I would give you more clues but I am having to keep an eye on on 'her in doors' in case she threatens to start baking!

I've never heard of it but much better than Relay.

29 Could it be Drifter?

[moe19]

 I agree Canny Lass

and  31 could be celebrations or is it celebration 

[Canny lass]

That just leaves the 'sweet tooth'. It's got me stumped!

I'll kill that Eggy if he posts anymore of these before midnight 24/12!

Me too! Can't get it here and I haven't seen it for a long time on my visits to Blighty - mind you, I haven't been looking. Did you know that there's a Norwegian cheese that tastes just like Caramac? It's called 'Brunost' (Brown cheese) or sometimes 'Mysost/Mesost'. If you like Caramac you'll love it. It's not like any other cheese I've ever tasted. Made from the whey, rather than the cream, of milk from any animal. I'm particularly fond of the goatsmilk one. The whey is boiled and reduced until the sugar in it caramelises then they add cream. Tastes wonderful!

[pilgrim]

Caramac is still available, although it did disappear for a while! You can get other Caramac flavoured things as well I believe.

We have had some of that cheese and it is delicious although not easy to obtain.

The only suppliers we have obtained it from are a small deli in Ripley and herself assures me that Selfridges in Manchester stocks it (although no doubt it is available online.
