This charming snapshot offers a glimpse into the past, reminding us of the rich history of confectionery craftsmanship. The assortment featured in this advertisement includes tempting delights such as mint rock, seed loaf, plum loaf, and gingerbread. Each treat meticulously crafted by Charles Butler himself was undoubtedly made with love and care.
