Licorice Root

Licorice roots are just that – the root of the licorice plant. For over 100 years, they werre sold in candy stores, enjoyed for the spicy flavor that soon morphs into the familiar licorice taste. Now featured in our historical candy collection, when chewed, the fiber splays, much like a little broom, making the chewing experience an adventure. When the end is thin and bare, just break it off and start again. Each bag makes a wonderful historical candy gift and comes with a label telling the fascinating history of licorice root. Perfect for anyone who loves a natural snack, appreciates history, or wants to explore the many uses of licorice!
