Trader Joe's Trio of Soft Licorice Twists, 227g

Licorice has long been a favorite among the candy-eating crowd in Australia and New Zealand, going all the way back to the Victorian Era. It wasn’t until the 1950’s, however, that soft and chewy licorice rose to prominence across Australasia. According to legend, one candy company accidentally created a batch far softer than they meant to, and gave it away to local children for free. It proved to be a tremendous hit, and more than 70 years later, it remains one of the most popular styles of licorice globally. TJ's Trio of Soft Licorice Twists is of this superbly soft and pleasantly chewy variety, and also contain the additional twist (see what we did there?) of coming in three phenomenally fruity flavours: ripe raspberry, tropical mango, and tart green apple.

Ideal for any situation that calls for sweet snacking, TJ's Trio of Soft Licorice Twists can be enjoyed as a movie candy, a school lunch dessert, or, our personal favourite, as an anytime, “just-because” treat. We find that its complementary mix of flavours strikes a nice balance of consistency and variety: just enough of each to keep every bite interesting. And if you’ve got a road trip, ball game, or amusement park outing on your horizon, a Trio of Soft Licorice Twists makes a capital companion.
