The stolen items included 59 bars of Galaxy, 39 Cadbury Dairy Milk’s, 27 boxes of Ferrero Rocher, 6 Cadbury Whole Nut bars and 4 Toblerones.
The sticky-fingered bandits didn’t stop there with seven boxes of Fairy washing tablets, three laughing Cow cheeses and a trio of Philadelphia cream cheese tubs found as well.
Officers also uncovered a bunch of stolen pot noodles and assorted items of clothing – alongside a de-tagging device.
Cambridgeshire Police pulled the car over at Lowerfields Leisure Park, Huntingdon.
The shockingly-sweet haul was taken into evidence on 23 October, as reported by Need To Know.
Cops believe that the duo from Birmingham had been on a country wide shoplifting spree.
The pair were arrested and charged with carrying out thefts from a shop in King’s Lynn, Norfolk.
A spokesperson for Cambridgeshire Police stated: “Before you ask, no this isn’t us getting ready for the upcoming festive season.
“This is just part of the haul our neighbourhood officers found in a car that triggered our ANPR system as being linked to suspected shoplifters travelling through the county.
“The husband-and-wife duo were arrested and charged with shop thefts from stores in Norfolk.”
Members of the public were left in stitches by the haul.
Rob Palmer said: “Looks like there wasn’t a bounty hunter.”
Luke Cooper added: “That’s the Christmas hamper sorted for the station then.”
Luke Davidson said: “The Great British Bonnie and Clyde.”
Steven Keeley added: “Keeping dentists in work.”
Stevie Green said: “Unlucky getting caught.”
