The story behind it

No one really knows why Darwin kids got hooked on salty plums. Imported from...

No one really knows why Darwin kids got hooked on salty plums. Imported from Asia, rock-hard, wrinkled, and aggressively sour-salty, they somehow became the unofficial lolly of the Top End.

By the ’70s and ’80s, they weren’t just a snack—they were playground currency. A sweaty fist-full of plums could buy you favours, trades, even a bit of street cred. Some swore they cured homesickness, others said they kept the heat stroke away. Mostly, they just puckered your face until you looked like you’d been slapped - and if your skateboard wheel has ever met a stray salty plum seed on the concrete, chances are you've stacked it hard.

They’re still floating around markets, corner shops, and the odd pocket—an acquired delicacy, playground currency, and a true troppo remedy.

Shipping & Returns

Printed just for you. Every order is printed to order in Brisbane, usually within 1-3 business days.

Once your order has been printed and dispatched:

Standard shipping: usually 4–8 business days
Express shipping: usually 3–6 business days
Free standard shipping on orders over $100

Top End customers: If you're in the NT and in a hurry (an unusual combination), we recommend choosing Express Shipping. Standard parcels from Brisbane tend to take the scenic route via Adelaide before eventually heading north. Express shipping usually takes the red-eye directly instead.

Because each item is printed to order, we can’t usually exchange items ordered in the wrong size. Please check the size guide before ordering. Annoying, but also fairly sensible.

If your item arrives damaged, faulty or incorrect, get in touch and we’ll sort it out.
