For more than 60 years a small part of Newcastle has enjoyed the sweet taste of success.
But there are fears almost 500 jobs will be lost at Nestlé in Fawdon, after the global food giant announced plans to focus production elsewhere.
Countless confectionery has rolled off the production line at the former Rowntree Mackintosh factory over the years, including Fruit Pastilles, Lion Bars, Smarties, KitKats and Rolos.
While its fate remains to be sealed, its colourful past holds many memories for the generations of families who walked through its doors.
