Not had one of there for years, remember them being the size of a 2p coin, only thicker and tastier.
I'll go for
32 Authentic cakes from Pontefract
4 cakes 19g
Bag 3g
Nicely done by the way, with the little twist on the weighing of the contents

Haribo took over the factory in Pontefract that made the original Pomfrets- I'm glad to see they continued the tradition.
