I've been invited to participate in a BBC TV show teaching children to speak Klingon. Only a crash course, but the producer had the idea that the kids could run a scenario where they go out and buy sweets in Klingon.
So I'm running the following ideas past you for terms they could be using during the show.

puq Soj - sweets
We already have leng Soj from KGT, but "puq Soj" seems more appropriate for this show.
naHlet yuch - chocolate (covered) nuts
naHHom yuch - chocolate (covered) raisins
qagh ngeb - sugar worms (literally "false qagh") (probably they'd use dyed liquorice shoelaces)
They're kids, and it is a British kids' show so nobody's expecting them to come out of it spouting Klingon poetry; but I just wanted to pass these by you so you could comment and offer advice.
