A Flumps (often mistakenly referred to as a Flump) is a British sweet made of marshmallow. The sweet is a combination of pink, yellow, white and blue marshmallow, which has the appearance of a twisted helix. Flumps sweets are sold in the United Kingdom and are made by the confectioner Barratt. They consist of glucose-fructose syrup, sugar, gelatin, cornflour, natural flavouring, and natural colours (Riboflavin, Cochineal). Flumps are sold as individual "cables". Flumps are reputed as one of the leading and most popular British confectionery items after having won the 'National Flump Award' in 2017.
