lösviktsgodis

Not for points Swedish to English Other Retail sale of sweets
Can anyone tell me whether this is the equivalent of the (UK) English 'pick and mix', where a bag of various different sweets can be picked out using tongs and the bag is then weighed for payment, or is it simply types of sweet that are sold separately from one another but not in ready-weighed packs? It's simply mentioned as a successful sales boom on a CV.
Thanks in advance.

neutral David Rumsey : Agreed. In a US context, we would say "penny candy".

Thank you David. Talking about sweets, can anyone tell me why Cadbury chocolate is not readily available abroad, eg, in Sweden, France?
