One of the magic goodies in Enid Blyton's Faraway tree stories published during 1939 - 1951. As far as I know this is the earliest use of the word 'Google'.

They were sweet buns with a juicy interior.

Other notable ones were:

  • Pop Biscuits (Biscuits which turned to honey as they were chewed).
  • Shock toffees (These got bigger and bigger as they were sucked and when they got too big for the mouth , suddenly exploded into nothing).
  • Hot cold delights (They got hotter and hotter in the mouth and when unbearably hot, got colder and colder and vice versa).
