York Fruits are a brand of fruit-flavoured jellies, traditionally popular in Great Britain at Christmas.[1]
The sweets were formerly made by Terry's of York, and more recently by Kraft Foods (1993-2008) and Smith Kendon[2][3] in Lancaster (2008-2012). The brand was acquired by Tangerine Confectionery in 2012.[4] Tangerine Confectionery was bought by Valeo Confectionery in 2018.[5]
