Thoughts on a new site??

I'm considering building a sweet shop website that focuses on the traditional English pick and mix sweets, the main problem i have is due to the sweets generally being solid sugar based sweets they get heavy rather quickly and postage becomes a major part of the cost!

So before i spend the time putting a site together I would like to know, Would you ever order pick and mix style sweets online?

Also another quick question, Are there many people that now live outside of the UK and are craving any kind of English sweet that you now cant get where you currently live?

My wife is due to give birth in march and I'm looking for something i can do whilst being a stay at home dad, and packing bags with sweets seems like a lovely idea for a bit of side income to keep the baby in nappies!

All the best
