Here's some useful links for snacks and sweets in the WWII through post-war periods.

Sweets available during WW II

More on WWII sweets . Really useful rundown toward the bottom of the page.

A shop selling sweets of the era. I would look up the sweets individually to check on what was and wasn't available when, but a lot of the listed sweets are WWII era. This will show you what they actually look like.

Food rationing in WWII

End of rationing in 1954. Mentions popular cakes at the time.

History of flavored crisps

If you have any knowledge or memory of these matters, please chime in! Particularly interested in what they actually taste like as they are mostly not available in the US.

Also feel free to comment or speculate on what the characters would have eaten, enjoyed, or not enjoyed in this period. We know Frecks loves sweets and chocolate; is there any evidence for Algy being a snack fiend, or is that just my headcanon?
