Double Dip is a classic full sherbet-flavored powder, with a lolly for dipping, sweet which is produced by Swizzels Matlow where it has been popular in the UK and Australia for at least 30 years.

[edit] The company

Matlow Bros. LTD started in a small factory in London in 1928 by Alfred and Maurice Matlow. In 1933, they formed Swizzles Limited along with David Dee. Later, in 1975, they adopted the title Swizzels Matlow LTD.

The company is famous for this Double Dip and other sweets such as Love Hearts, Drumstick Lollies, Refreshers, Double Lollies, and Rainbow Drops to name a few.

[edit] The Double Dip

The packaging is made of paper, albeit a quite strong paper, brightly coloured with yellow (containing the swizzelstick), red (containing cherry sherbet) and orange (containing orange sherbet). The words Double Dip are bold on the front in yellow with white highlighting. Double dip consists of a candy stick (used as a lolly) and two different flavors of sherbet to dip the lolly into.
