My mom used to call sherbert kayli

I loved walking up the street buying some sherbert and wetting my finger and dipping it in the sherbert!!! YUM...

Yes it was known as kayli (like yourself, not sure of spelling). I have a feeling it depends on where you lived as to what it was called.

The shop in Blackpool where I bought it used to sell kaylie in cone shaped bags. It was always a challenge to get the last little bit from the corner with a wet index finger which used to turn yellow or orange. Web consensus is spelling of "kaylie".

We used to buy rainbow sherbert and two half-penny, hard, short (about 4"), thin sticks of strong-tasting liquorice. We licked the liquorice and dipped it into the sherbert. Ummmmmm.

Amanda, Yes it was known as kaylie - at least in the part of Manchester I grew up in - have no idea where the word originated, I can remember buying a penny-worth in a paper cone and the best way to eat it was to wet a finger and dip in. It always turned your finger a strange colour though
