The sweets can be used to build various structures, animals, characters and vehicles.

Depending on how creative your kids (or you) are, you can make anything from a robot to a giraffe.

The sweets look a lot like edible Lego and come in yellow, red, blue and green.

There are examples of things to build both on the outside of the packets and on the manufacturer, Amos Sweets', Facebook page.

The blocks are available in 114g bags in Home Bargains stores nationwide.

The sweets were spotted by an eagle-eyed shopper in the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group on Facebook.

Parents have been excited by the sweets, there have been over 1,100 likes since the post appeared.

Hundreds have been saying how much their children would love the sweets, but some have been concerned about the mess.

One parent said: "Will be in tomorrow before work for some, kids will love these, me too."

But another mum posted: "Boys would love these but imagine how sticky they'd get"

Another said: "Can't think of anything worse the kids playing with sticky hands and sticky sweets."

And some have warned that it might tempt younger children to put real Lego blocks in their mouths.

So best kept for older kids that can tell the difference between plastic and sweets.

We'd also recommend building on a plate or easy wipe surface to avoid sticky furniture.
